New tin sulfate (SnSO4)-based chemical bath deposition (CBD) fabrication method produces flexible perovskite solar cells (FPSCs) with record-setting power conversion efficiency.

Caption

SnSO4 is used as a tin precursor for the tin oxide (SnO2) deposited as the electron transport layer of FPSCs. A new CBD manufacturing method allows more control over SnO2 growth, improving the overall power conversion efficiency of the solar cell and increasing the practicality of flexible solar cell technology.
