Abstract:
Perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) have rapidly advanced, becoming a highly promising technology due to their remarkable efficiency and potential for low-cost production. This review paper, titled "The Evolution of Perovskite Solar Cells: Recent Trends," provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments and innovations in PSCs. Key areas of focus include efficiency improvements, with lab-scale cells achieving over 25% power conversion efficiency (PCE) and multi-junction cells reaching over 29%. Stability enhancements through improved encapsulation and additive engineering have significantly extended the operational lifetimes of PSCs. Material innovations, particularly the development of lead-free perovskites and mixed cation-anion structures, have addressed environmental and stability concerns. Efforts to scale up production via roll-to-roll and inkjet printing techniques aim to make PSCs commercially viable. The versatility of PSCs is further demonstrated in their applications for flexible, lightweight devices and integration into building materials. Environmental and economic considerations, alongside advanced characterization techniques and computational modeling, are also discussed. The paper concludes that continued innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential to overcoming remaining challenges and fully realizing the transformative potential of perovskite solar cells in the renewable energy landscape.
