Efficiency remained virtually unchanged after encapsulation process
The efficiency remained virtually unchanged after undergoing the encapsulation process. In tests conducted under international standards at 85°C and 85% relative humidity, the encapsulated cells exhibited exceptional durability, maintaining 21.7% efficiency even after 1,000 hours. The glass transition temperature of the hole transport layer was also elevated to 125°C, reported Tech Explorer.
Perovskites — a family of materials that have shown potential for high performance and low production costs in solar cells — are materials utilized in other energy technologies, such as fuel cells and catalysts.
Commonly used in photovoltaic (PV) solar cells, perovskites are commonly used in photovoltaic (PV) solar cells are more specifically called “metal-halide perovskites” since they are made of a combination of organic ions, metals, and halogens.
