PDF unveils the structure of organic-inorganic perovskite solar cell

For the first time, the  detailed structure of the light harvesting material in recently discovered high performance  dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) has been determined. There has been a strikingly rapid increase in the performance of solar cells based on methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) perovskites following the first report in 2009; today greater than 15%… Read More PDF unveils the structure of organic-inorganic perovskite solar cell

PDF reveals structure of miracle perovskite in novel solar cells

For solar electricity to be economically competitive with fossil fuel based electricity, the cost of fabricating and installing solar cells needs to be much lower. Solution processed solar cells can potentially achieve this with a drastically lower fabrication cost but their low performance has so far limited their success. Recently, solar cells based on methylammonium… Read More PDF reveals structure of miracle perovskite in novel solar cells
