#perovskite — Public Fediverse posts

Researchers have developed the first universal model to accurately explain and predict energy level alignment at the interfaces between electrodes, hole-collecting monolayers (HCMs), and #perovskite layers in solar cells. This framework establishes physical guidelines for designing efficient, durable perovskite solar cells without relying heavily on trial and error.

#Perovskite #quantum dots are nanometer-sized semiconductor crystals that harness quantum effects to efficiently absorb and re-emit light. Composed primarily of metals and halides, these nanocrystals possess highly customizable optical and electronic characteristics dictated by their extremely small dimensions.

Unfortunately, this new breakthrough involves #Molybdenum, the mining of which is very polluting. The article does also mention breakthroughs using #perovskite, and hopefully, lead-free perovskite (like those using tin) will be developed... Always ask -- How long will this new technology last? What happens when it becomes obsolete? Are there polluting materials involved?

Perovskite: The 'wonder material' that could transform solar power.

According to proponents of this "wonder material", perovskite panels promise to cheaply boost the energy generated by solar farms and rooftops, and could work far better than silicon panels on satellites and electric cars.

But it all depends on how they hold up in the real world.

Repost: Perovskite is found just west of Montreal in the Oka Complex; Carbonate-rich, silica-poor magma emplaced in the Cretaceous. The site was mined for niobium in the 1960's and 1970's -it's also enriched in REEs and thorium.

Calcite vs Perovskite (planetary science edition)

Most carbonates on Mars are Fe and Mg-rich (so siderite-dolomite) but the infamous meteorite Allan Hills 84001 also containts some rare calcite.

(Mg, Fe)SiO3 perovskite (same structure as CaTiO3) can form by dissociation of olivine in shocked martian meteorites (for example: shergottite Dar al Gani 735) recording extreme pressure and temperature conditions of at least 25 GPa, 700°C.

#MinCup25 #Calcite #Perovskite

Re-post from MinCup past:
The non-detection of #perovskite in non-stars shows that it's there.

Cool red dwarf stars have deep absorption bands from TIO gas in their atmospheres. In yet cooler brown dwarfs those bands have disappeared: opaque perovsite dust has condensed, making the titanium invisible.

Spectra from Kesseli et al. (2017), images from Gabicca, LEAP group.

"In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous #solvents. The recycled solar cell has the same efficiency as the original one. The solar cell is made of #perovskite and the main solvent is water."

#Durable and #Transparent: Researchers Develop #HighEfficiency #Bifacial #Perovskite #SolarCells

By International Society for Optics and Photonics, February 25, 2025

"Bifacial perovskite solar cells, which capture sunlight from both sides, have shown great potential for enhancing solar energy efficiency. Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) have recently advanced their development by introducing a novel NiO/Ag/NiO (NAN) transparent electrode. This innovation improves efficiency, durability, and infrared transparency, offering promising applications in solar energy technology.

"As detailed in the Journal of Photonics for Energy, a research team from IIT Dharwad designed and fabricated bifacial solar cells with high infrared transparency. They achieved this by integrating a hybrid top transparent electrode (TE) composed of a three-layer NiO/Ag/NiO structure. Using a low-energy physical vapor deposition technique, they developed an electrode with exceptionally low electrical resistance and high visible light transmittance, significantly enhancing the performance of these solar cells."
