Abstract

Perovskite solar cell (PSCs) technology has made a tremendous impact in the solar cell community due to their exceptional performance, as the power conversion efficiency (PCE) surged to world record 22% within just last few years. Despite this high efficiency value, the commercialization of PSCs for...
