Advances in Encapsulations for Perovskite Solar Cells: From Materials to Applications
Yating Shi, Fei Zhang
Abstract
The poor stability hampers the commercialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Many methods have recently been reported to enhance their stability, among which encapsulation is one of the most effective methods to improve the stability of PSCs. Herein, a summary of the factors influencing the stability of PSCs is provided and the commonly used encapsulation technologies and different types of encapsulation materials in detail are introduced. Then, the characterization technologies of encapsulation and stability tests of encapsulated PSCs are proposed. Finally, current issues and chances for encapsulating material development are considered.
