Researchers have created an ultra-thin perovskite solar cell with a checkerboard pattern that shields the perovskite layer from UV degradation. The design developed by a team at the Nova ...

They explained that UV degradation is one of the main factors causing the “irreversible” degradation of perovskites in solar cells, which usually occurs at the interface between the perovskite ...

5, 7 In tandem with rising temperatures, increased UV radiation resulting from climate change plays a crucial role in the degradation of plastics. UV radiation enhances photodegradation ...

“This causes perovskite solar cell degradation under sunlight with strong UV components.” To mitigate the effects of this degradation, the scientists upgraded the perovskite solar cells used ...
