Overcoming perovskite photovoltaic challenges with spectroscopy
Perovskite solar cells have emerged as a promising next-generation photovoltaic technology, achieving remarkable efficiency gains in just over a decade of development. However, the path from laboratory breakthrough to commercial deployment faces a number of obstacles. Issues with material stability, device reproducibility, and manufacturing scalability have prevented perovskite photovoltaics from achieving more widespread market adoption.
These challenges require sophisticated analytical tools to understand and overcome the fundamental material and device limitations.
Spectroscopy has proven invaluable in addressing these critical challenges, providing researchers and manufacturers with the precise analytical capabilities needed to characterise perovskite materials, optimise device performance, and ensure consistent quality in production environments.
