This innovative method, based on solution-processed perovskite, is intended to transform a wide range of day-to-day objects, including photodetectors, LEDs, and solar cells for computer chips and smartphones.
Solution-processed perovskites are advanced materials designed for solar cell panels used on rooftops, LEDs for daily-life lighting, and X-ray detectors for medical diagnosis.
