Photovoltaics of the future: perovskite solar cells

The organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cell has attracted much attention in both academia and industry recently. In less than ten years their power conversion efficiency has reached 22.7%, which is regarded as a real game changer in the field of photovoltaics. It is expected that within a few years even higher efficiencies and lower costs will be achieved, providing us with even cheaper clean solar energy.
