Kuwait University researchers investigated the relationship between the molecular weight of the quenching gas and the morphology of perovskite films used in solar cells, finding that argon and helium ...

Researchers from Belgian research center imec and the University of Cyprus have announced completing outdoor stability tests of perovskite solar mini-modules providing two-year data on stability.

Dr Imalka Jayawardena, from Surrey's Advanced Technology Institute, said: "By addressing these common challenges we see with perovskite solar technology, our research blows the doors wide open for ...

To address this issue, the research team coated perovskite quantum dots with a thin film over the tin–lead perovskite layer, effectively mitigating the chronic problem and improving stability.

Perovskite solar cells are poised to be the next big photovoltaic technology, after silicon. But they usually don’t last more than a couple of years. They also contain toxic lead, which portends ...
