Scientists show clay substance can improve the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells
Researchers from Turkey's Konya Technical University have shown that sepiolite, a normally taking place clay substance, can be included in perovskite precursor materials, and also develop a scaffold layer that can improve the performance as well as stability of solar cells. The researchers think that this substance could be valuable in developing reproducible processes for the manufacturing of large-area perovskite solar cells.
