Physics-informed latent-space optimization for energy-aligned hole-collecting monolayers in inverted perovskite solar cells [PDF]

open access: yesRSC Advances
Precise energy-level alignment at buried interfaces is critical for high-performance inverted perovskite solar cells, where the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of hole-collecting monolayers (HCMs) must be tuned relative to the valence band ...
