New layout strategies to improve the stability and efficiency of bifacial perovskite solar cells
Solar cells based upon perovskites, calcium titanium oxide minerals or compounds with similar structures, are amongst one of the most appealing emerging energy options. Over the past couple of years, engineers and material researchers have been exploring the capacity of solar mini-modules (i.e., little cells that can be utilized to develop larger-scale solar panels) made from perovskite bifacial structures.
