Removing the lead risk from perovskite solar cells
Although they provide a very encouraging service for recording solar energy, perovskite solar cells consist of lead, which is toxic to the atmosphere as well as a major health hazard. EPFL scientists have actually currently discovered a really sophisticated and also efficient service to this, by including a clear phosphate salt that does not interfere with light-conversion efficiency while protecting against lead from permeating into the dirt in cases of photovoltaic panel failing.
