Researchers have achieved a major advance in solar energy technology by developing perovskite solar cells that last nearly ten times longer than previous versions. This development could significantly change how we harness solar power in the future. The Breakthrough Explained The key innovation lies in how researchers tackled perovskite’s biggest weakness – its rapid breakdown when exposed to moisture and heat. Scientists from the University of Surrey, in collaboration with the National Physical Laboratory and the University of Sheffield, found that by adding aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) nanoparticles during manufacturing, they could dramatically extend the cells’ lifespan. “This research marks a … Continue reading Perovskite Solar Cells Achieve 1,530-Hour Durability with Alumina Nanoparticles
