Selective dissolution of halide perovskites as a step towards recycling solar cells

As perovskite-based solar cells are reaching high efficiency, issues of stability and end-of-life become predominant. Here, Kim et al. selectively dissolve the perovskite layer and reuse the electron transport layer to fabricate devices with efficiency and stability comparable to those of the origin...

Description
Summary:As perovskite-based solar cells are reaching high efficiency, issues of stability and end-of-life become predominant. Here, Kim et al. selectively dissolve the perovskite layer and reuse the electron transport layer to fabricate devices with efficiency and stability comparable to those of the original solar cells.
