Bio-inspired vertebral design for scalable and flexible perovskite solar cells

Flexible perovskite solar cells suffer huge efficiency loss upon area scale-up due to brittleness of ITO and poor perovskite film quality. Here Meng et al. solve this by inserting a conductive and glued polymer layer between ITO and perovskite layers and obtain efficiency of 17% for 30 cm2 devices.
