We report on a perovskite solar module with an aperture area of 4 cm 2 and geometrical fill factor of 91%. The module exhibits an aperture area power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 13.6% from a current-voltage scan and 12.6% after 5 min of maximum power point tracking. High PCE originates in pinhole free perovskite films made with a precursor combination of Pb(CH 3 CO 2 ) 2 ·3H 2 O, PbCl 2 , and CH 3 NH 3 I.
Broader contextRecently, significant progress has been made in organometallic halide perovskite solar cell research, boosting the record certified power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 20.1%.
Concurrently pumped ultrasonic spray coating is implemented for rapid composition screening and in situ bandgap control of perovskite photovoltaics, achieving 15.7% efficiency for devices and 11.7% for modules, and tested under continuous maximum power point tracking.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
