An international research team has developed a perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell based on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) that improve perovskite growth and optoelectronic properties.

A novel atomic-level manufacturing method, vdW squeezing, allows for the creation of 2D metals at the angstrom thickness ...

With this in mind, the group sought to further optimize this cell technology through the use of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which reportedly improve perovskite growth and optoelectronic ...

This tuning is consistent with the excitons of the WS 2, WSe 2, and MoSe 2 monolayers. TMDC monolayers were chosen for their capacity to facilitate strong light-matter interactions due to their ...
