A new generation of perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells can break the theoretical 30% efficiency barrier, Science reports. Two research groups present different molecular methods to pull this off. The biggest challenge is the limited stability of these cells. ‘Extending the lifespan is now more important than a further increase in efficiency.’
