Printing Perovskite Solar Cells in Ambient Air

• Printed perovskite solar cells (PSCs ) have received great attention due to their scalability and cost efficiency, and solution printing is an effective strategy for large-area, cost-effective, and high-throughput production of PSCs. However, despite tremendous progress in this process, challenges related to stability, consistency, and scalability remain to be solved. Recently, Sun Kuan of Chongqing University, Ding Liming of the National Nanoscience Center and others reviewed and studied printed perovskite solar cells in ambient air.

  
  

  The authors analyze the key printing technologies used in PSC manufacturing, and given the importance of ambient air printing in industrial applications, the authors discuss in detail the fundamental challenges in achieving ambient air production of PSCs. Furthermore, given the critical role of perovskite inks in determining the performance and stability of printed PSCs, the authors deeply explore the formulation strategies of perovskite inks in printing technology.

  
  

  Finally, the authors carefully analyze the various component printing processes of PSCs, including perovskite absorber layers, charge transport layers (CTL s), and electrodes, and highlight current research progress and remaining future challenges.
