A much longer lifetime is crucial to realising the promise of perovskite solar cells. A targeted choice of coating can increase stability, according to an international team in Science.

Perovskite solar cells are of great interest in solar cell research. Their theoretical performance surpasses that of conventional silicon cells, production costs are low and the materials needed for production are readily available.
