Study shows BondLynx stabilizes perovskite solar cells
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs), compared to conventional silicon solar cells, are lighter weight, more flexible and potentially cheaper to produce. But commercialization is still in question because PSCs lack long-term stability. The problem is rooted in the volatile nature of organic components contained within perovskites which are triggered when exposed to environmental stimuli, like light……
