Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted intensive attention because of high energy conversion efficiency, low-cost materials constituents, and simple solution fabrication process, which are considered as a disruptive technology. Currently, perovskite solar cells have achieved an impressive certification efficiency of 26%. However, the commercialization of PSCs requires addressing two crucial concerns: stability and the remaining challenges associated with scaling up their manufacturing processes. In this paper, we briefly describe the working principle and device structure of PSCs, review recent progress of PSCs in improving photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability, and put forward the remaining challenges along the pathway to their commercialization. Finally, the application prospect of PSCs in power system is prospected.
