An international research team has developed a perovskite-silicon tandem solar ... temperature—on the self-assembly of a conventional SAM, namely 2PACz. “We found that increasing the annealing ...

Now, for the first time, a team at HZB has analysed the charge carrier dynamics at the perovskite/SAM-modified ITO interface in more detail. From time-resolved surface photovoltage measurements ...

A study published in the Surfaces and Interfaces Journal used photoconductive AFM to investigate the underlying microscopic mechanisms behind the photovoltaic degradation behavior of halide perovskite ...

laser pulses spanning from the visible to the infrared ranges struck a perovskite thin film, causing the material to heat up and expand. The tiny expansion was captured and amplified by the AFM ...

This SAM was applied to the electrode and facilitated the flow of the electrical charge carriers. "We first prepared the perfect bed, so to speak, on which the perovskite lays on," says Amran Al ...

Sam Stranks, a professor of optoelectronics at the University of Cambridge, says the work is a very important step toward perovskite solar cell recyclability. “If it can be shown to be effective ...
