Promises and challenges of perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: Because photocurrents are near the theoretical maximum, the focus is on efforts to increase open-circuit voltage by means of improving charge-selective contacts and charge carrier lifetimes in perovskites via processes such as ion tailoring.

Charge-Carrier Mobilities in Metal Halide Perovskites: Fundamental Mechanisms and Limits

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors outline the mechanisms that set a fundamental upper limit to charge-carrier mobility values in metal halide perovskites and reveal how they may be tuned through changes in stoichiometry.

Recombination in Perovskite Solar Cells: Significance of Grain Boundaries, Interface Traps, and Defect Ions

TL;DR: A direct correlation is found between the density of traps, thedensity of mobile ionic defects, and the degree of hysteresis observed in the current–voltage (J–V) characteristics of perovskite solar cells.

High-performance photovoltaic perovskite layers fabricated through intramolecular exchange

TL;DR: An approach for depositing high-quality FAPbI3 films, involving FAP bI3 crystallization by the direct intramolecular exchange of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) molecules intercalated in PbI2 with formamidinium iodide is reported.

Stability of polymer solar cells.

TL;DR: The developments in stability/degradation of OPVs in the last five years are reviewed, such as inverted device structures of the bulk heterojunction geometry device, which allows for more stable metal electrodes, the choice of more photostable active materials, the introduction of interfacial layers, and roll-to-roll fabrication.

19.8% efficient “honeycomb” textured multicrystalline and 24.4% monocrystalline silicon solar cells

TL;DR: In this paper, a hexagonally symmetric honeycomb surface texture was used to reduce reflection loss in multicrystalline silicon solar cells and increase the cell's effective optical thickness.
