Stability of Perovskite Indoor Photovoltaics: A Focused Review and a Call for Standardized Stability Reporting

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
While perovskite solar cells have been widely studied, including their stability, perovskite indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) have only recently emerged. Nevertheless, more studies are appearing in the literature. The systematic stability study of IPVs is crucial, particularly given the inconsistencies in reported methodologies and results, which call for ...
