New Technique Enables Eco-friendly and Cost-effective Fabrication of Efficient Perovskite Solar cells

In collaboration of international team of researchers, ORaCEL researchers have demonstrated a technique for producing perovskite photovoltaic materials on an industrial scale, which will reduce the cost and improve the performance of mass-produced perovskite solar cells.

The technique is low-cost, simple, energy-efficient, and should pave the way for creating perovskite solar cells. Perovskite is of interest for solar cells because it absorbs light very efficiently. This allows for the creation of lightweight, flexible solar cells that can be incorporated into a range of technologies, such as the windows of buildings or vehicles. This works appears in the journal Nature Communications.
