A review of flexible halide perovskite solar cells towards scalable manufacturing and environmental sustainability

The perovskite material has many superb qualities which allow for its remarkable success as solar cells;flexibility is an emerging field for this technology.To encourage commercialization of flexible perovskite solar cells,two main areas are of focus:mitigation of stability issues and adaptation of production to flexible substrates.An in-depth report on stability concerns and solutions follows with a focus on Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites.Roll to roll processing of devices is desired to further reduce costs,so a review of flexible devices and their production methods follows as well.The final focus is on the sustainability of perovskite solar cell devices where recycling methods and holistic environmental impacts of devices are done.
