Developing Highly Efficient, Stable Inverted Structure Perovsite Solar Sells

Halide perovskite shows great potential as the most promising next generation of high-efficiency and low-cost solar cells. Currently, the main problem for the perovskite solar cell is the incompatibility of high stability and high efficiency. For example, the stability of inverted structure perovskite solar cells is good, but the efficiency is low, especially for the NiOx-based inverted structure ...
