Organic–inorganic hybrid perovskites represent a diverse class of materials that combine the directional bonding and functionality of organic molecules with the robust, often tunable, electronic and ...

A new hybrid layered perovskite featuring elusive spontaneous defect ordering has been found, report scientists. By introducing specific concentrations of thiocyanate ions into FAPbI3 (FA = ...

Researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Yonsei University have fabricated a high-efficiency and high-stability organic-inorganic hybrid solar cell. The ...

Researchers in Singapore used a biomass-derived polymer to increase the efficiency of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite solar cell. The cell was also found to obtain a 90% efficiency retention after ...

Appearing online August 31 in the journal Nature Chemistry, the research is the result of a close collaboration between several experimental and theoretical teams. The experimental teams synthesize ...

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

Solar cells convert light into electricity by a phenomenon known as the photovoltaic effect. The vast majority of solar cells consist of two semiconductors wedged together—one with an excess of ...

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

Perovskites are among the most extensively studied materials in modern materials science. Their often unique and exotic properties, which stem from perovskite’s peculiar crystal structure, could find ...
