Abstract

Lightweight flexible perovskite solar cells (PSCs) offer advantages over rigid solar cells including power to weight, variety of form factor and ability to scale. With breakthroughs in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs, scaling up PSCs with similar performance has become a topic of inter...
