Application

Formamidinium iodide (FAI) serves as a critical precursor material in the fabrication of perovskite solar cells. FAI is used in material engineering studies to investigate the impact of formamidinium incorporation on perovskite film properties and device performance.
The iodide and bromide based alkylated halides find applications as precursors for fabrication of perovskites for photovoltaic applications.
Formamidinium iodide (FAI) is an organic halide, which can be used as a precursor solution in the fabrication of perovskite-based heterojunction solar cells.

Recent Advances in Perovskite Solar Cells

Research focuses on sustainable and cost-effective power generation systems to meet the growing demand for environmentally friendly energy sources.

Perovskite Solar Cells

Dr. Perini and Professor Correa-Baena discuss the latest research and effort to obtain higher performance and stability of perovskite materials.

Solar Cells: Towards Printable and Flexible Solar Technologies

To achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, renewable power contributions must triple. Photovoltaic stations provide vital utility power, achieved primarily through third- and fourth-generation technology. Promising trends include recycling and revolutionary, ultra-lightweight, flexible, and printable solar cells.

Ultra-High Efficiency Perovskite-Perovskite Tandem Solar Cells

Next generation solar cells have the potential to achieve conversion efficiencies beyond the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) limit while also significantly lowering production costs.
