All-perovskite tandem solar cells: from fundamentals to technological progress

Energy & Environmental Science
Organic–inorganic perovskite materials have gradually progressed from single-junction solar cells to tandem (double) or even multi-junction (triple-junction) solar cells as all-perovskite tandem solar cells (APTSCs). Perovskites have numerous advantages:

Degradation Mechanisms Associated with Electron‐Blocking Layers in Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The effects of the three typical EBLs NiOx, PTAA, and 2PACz on the photovoltaic performance and degradation mechanisms are investigated under light soaking and solar‐thermal cycling conditions of corresponding PSCs, demonstrating that 2PACz is the best EBL due to the better interface contact and lower lattice distortion.

Bioinspired Interfacial Hydration Engineering via Metal–Organic Frameworks for Efficient Nitrate‐To‐Ammonia Conversion in Neutral Media

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by Nitrite reductase, a metal–organic framework overlayer is introduced to regulate the interfacial hydration microenvironment on Cu electrodes, enriching hydrated K+ species that act as efficient proton donors. This strategy enables nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion with near‐unity selectivity at industrial‐level current densities in neutral ...
