“…Recently, there have been studies on the scale-up of plain membranes using profile roller coating [ 109 ] and slot die casting embedded on roll-to-roll (R2R) systems [ 115 , 120 , 121 ]. Slot die casting is the most prominent method because it is capable of scaling up thin films across a broad array of areas, while retaining the functionality of the films [ 122 , 123 ].…”

“…Conversely, slot die casting is a well-developed and commonly used method to manufacture polymer films. It is suitable for continuous casting of liquid films and has been subsequently investigated to scale up polymeric membranes [ 121 , 123 ]. In manufacturing of thin films, there is a constant demand to increase processing speed while maintaining film thickness to fit applications in coating industry.…”

(1) Different methods have been applied to fabricate polymeric membranes with non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) being one of the mostly widely used. In NIPS, a solvent or solvent blend is required to dissolve a polymer or polymer blend. N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), dimethylformamide (DMF) and other petroleum-derived solvents are commonly used to dissolve some petroleum-based polymers. However, these components may have negative impacts on the environment and human health. Therefore, using greener and less toxic components is of great interest for increasing membrane fabrication sustainability. The chemical structure of membranes is not affected by the use of different solvents, polymers, or by the differences in fabrication scale. On the other hand, membrane pore structures and surface roughness can change due to differences in diffusion rates associated with different solvents/co-solvents diffusing into the non-solvent and with differences in evaporation time. (2) Therefore, in this review, solvents and polymers involved in the manufacturing process of membranes are proposed to be replaced by greener/less toxic alternatives. The methods and feasibility of scaling up green polymeric membrane manufacturing are also examined.

“…As a result, slot-die coating has been less employed in solar module fields, and only limited reports are related to the film fabricated by slot-die coating. Recently, depending on the slot-die coating method, PSCs of 12 cm × 12 cm with a PCE of 14.3% have been fabricated, and uniform perovskite thin films of 80 cm × 80 cm have been prepared by the same process [ 54 ].…”

In recent years, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have experienced rapid development and have presented an excellent commercial prospect as the PSCs are made from raw materials that are readily and cheaply available depending on simple manufacturing techniques. However, the commercial production and utilization of PSCs remain immature, leading to substantial efforts needed to boost the development of scalable fabrication of PSCs, pilot scale tests, and the establishment of industrial production lines. In this way, the PSCs are expected to be successfully popularized from the laboratory to the photovoltaic market. In this review, the history of power conversion efficiency (PCE) for laboratory-scale PSCs is firstly introduced, and then some methods for maintaining high PCE in the upscaling process is displayed. The achievements in the stability and environmental friendliness of PSCs are also summarized because they are also of significance for commercialization. Finally, this review evaluates the commercialization prospects of PSCs from the economic view and provides a short outlook.

“…The PSC's structure consists of five components, i.e., Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) substrate, Hole Transport Layer (HTL), perovskite layer, Electron Transport Layer (ETL), and counter electrode [6][7][8]. The TCO substrate is a solar cell body with a conductive layer that functions to flow electric charges.…”

The hole transport layer is one of the most crucial parts of the perovskite solar cell. Recently, some studies have improved perovskite solar cell performance by modifying the surface of the hole transport layer using double fabrication of inorganic-organic materials. Their studies generate higher power conversion efficiency than inorganic materials but have not generated good stability. Therefore, this study aims to develop a double-hole transport layer using nickel oxide (NiO) and graphene oxide (GO) to improve the perovskite solar cells performance. The experiment utilizes the spin-coating method to observe the effect of combining NiO and GO in perovskite solar cells. The experimental results showed that the double hole transport layers produce better power conversion efficiency of 15.3% compared to single-layer NiO. The double holes can smoothen the holes of the perovskite interface layer and cause molecular uniformity to reduce recombination. In addition, NiO/GO surfaces show better stability to environmental conditions.
