- 1US team claims stability record for tin perovskite solar cell▼U.S. team claims stability record for 16.19%-efficient 2D/3D tin perovskite solar cell
A U.S. research team reports a stability record for a 2D/3D tin perovskite solar cell with an efficiency of 16.19%. The cell is lead-free, which matters because tin perovskites are seen as a less toxic alternative to lead-based designs, but they have historically degraded quickly. The claim, covered by pv magazine USA, suggests progress in combining decent efficiency with long-term durability.
