Ultra-thin Perovskite Solar Cell Development

Research and Education

A new type of solar cell that uses lead and other common elements to generate electricity. These cells are cheaper than conventional silicon cells, require lower manufacturing temperatures, and have reached 19% efficiency.

A cost-effective production method used to manufacture the perovskite solar cells, simpler than conventional silicon panel production techniques.
