Metallic halide perovskites (MHPs) are promising for solar energy, yet their stability under thermomechanical stress is a concern. Researchers at Arizona State University addressed this by studying the reliability and degradation mechanisms of MHP modules, advocating accelerated lab tests to better replicate field conditions and improve commercial viability.
- Thermomechanical Stability Analysis: Investigation of MHP solar modules' reliability under combined thermal and mechanical stress.
- Failure Mechanisms Identification: Identifying degradation mechanisms, particularly at scribing lines when encapsulated.
- Accelerated Testing Advocacy: Call for laboratory tests to emulate realistic field conditions.
- Commercial Viability Goals: Improving the durability of MHP modules through targeted material design.
- Performance vs. Reliability Balance: The challenge in focusing on both performance and thermomechanical stability for solar energy advancement.
