Abstract

Organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are currently attracting significant interest owing to their promising outdoor performance. However, the ability of indoor light harvesting of the perovskites and corresponding device performance are rarely reported. Here, the potential of plana...
