Cooperative Agreement
Overview
Grant Description
Center for Co-Design of Durable, Reproducible, and Efficient Perovskite Tandems
A. Project Objectives
Overall project objectives: This center will empower industry to achieve SETO's perovskite module targets via a fundamentally different path. Instead of chasing record efficiencies with tiny pixel-sized devices, and later attempting to stabilize them, this center embraces a "co-design" approach that simultaneously targets combinations of technoeconomic parameters including stability, reproducibility, and efficiency.
