Fixing Perovskite Film Cracks Made Easy
March 18, 2020 | Leave a Comment
A new Brown University study found that cracks in brittle perovskite films can be easily healed with compression or mild heating. This is a good sign for the use of perovskites in next-generation solar cells. The study, published in the journal Acta Materialia, found that though perovskite films tend to crack easily, those cracks are […]
