Widened Processing Window for Efficient and Reproducible Perovskite Solar Cells

Halide and cation engineering in perovskites is show to widen the processing window by manipulating the presence of the sol-gel state and therefore the formation of desired perovskite phases. The lifetime and formation of the sol-gel state and present phases were analyzed using time-resolved GIWAXS and optical absorbance measurements. Learn more about specific cation and…

Insight on Stability of Mixed Halide Perovskites

Researchers have explained the reasoning behind increased efficiency of mixed halide perovskites in solar cells. In-situ experimentation has shed light on the formation and evolution of crystalline compounds during the synthesis of cesium and rubidium containing perovskites. These studies were conducted by an international team with significant contributions from Hoang Dang and Masoud Ghasemi within…
