Enhancing perovskite solar cell durability and efficiency

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (.gov) April 24, 2024, 05:00 PM UTC

Summary: Scientists developed a simplified process to enhance the durability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells. Berkeley Lab researchers used advanced techniques to understand the process, aiming to commercialize perovskite technology. Perovskites offer advantages over traditional solar panels but lack durability. A protective barrier using PEACl improved cell quality. Multimodal imaging techniques revealed structural differences, leading to more efficient and stable cells. The study was published in Advanced Materials.
