An international research group demonstrated a method to fabricate perovskite solar cells on polycarbonate substrates that is compatible with industrial production processes for flexible PV devices. The team achieved a power conversion efficiency of 13.0% with the solar cells maintaining 87% efficiency after 1000 bending cycles. The research focused on the advantages of polycarbonate over other substrates, emphasizing its transparency, glass transition temperature, and moisture absorption. The study also highlighted the improved solvent resistance achieved through a blade coating method. The fabrication process was deemed compatible with low-cost manufacturing and allows integration with other printed electronic components. The results of the study indicate the potential for light-harvesting capabilities across various indoor and outdoor applications, contributing to energy harvesting and the development of smart windows and other electronic devices.
