Functionalized Phenyl Methanaminium Salts Provide Highly Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Andreas Züttel, Liping Zhong, Xiaoxin Gao

One of the leading approaches to enhancing the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) involves passivating the perovskite surface and grain boundaries with large ammonium salts. Here, we report the synthesis of furan-, thiophene-, and s ...

Balancing DSO interests and PV system economics with alternative tariffs

Robin Junod, Christophe Ballif, Nicolas Würsch, Alejandro Pena Bello

Distributed rooftop photovoltaics (PV) is one of the pillars of the energy transition yet their widespread integration strains grids, leading to over-voltage, reverse power flow, and infrastructure strain. Furthermore, increased PV self-consumption reduces ...

Dynamics of VOCs degradation and bacterial inactivation at the interface of AgxO/Ag/TiO2 prepared by HiPIMS under indoor light

Sami Rtimi

AgxO/Ag/TiO2 photoactive thin films were produced by different modes of magnetron sputtering (namely, DCMS and HiPIMS). The spectral and microstructural properties of the Ag-AgxO/TiO2 thin films were studied by Diffuse Reflection Spectroscopy (DRS) and X-r ...

Enabling full-scale grain boundary mitigation in polycrystalline perovskite solids

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Jingshan Luo, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Yuhang Liu, Lichen Zhao

There exists a considerable density of interaggregate grain boundaries (GBs) and intra-aggregate GBs in polycrystalline perovskites. Mitigation of intra- aggregate GBs is equally notable to that of interaggregate GBs as intra-aggregate GBs can also cause d ...
