The field of photovoltaics (PVs) is rapidly advancing to meet global energy needs. Traditional vacuum-based PV fabrication is costly, prompting a shift toward solution-based methods. This has led to the rise of emerging technologies like perovskite solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, organic solar cells, nano-ink based solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells, achieving efficiencies near 30%. This book offers a comprehensive overview of these technologies, focusing on their chemical and physical foundations, components, and working mechanisms . It highlights recent developments, challenges, and future prospects, making it a valuable resource for researchers and students exploring the capabilities of solution processed solar cells.

Key features:

Covers the latest advancements in solution-processed solar cell technology Highlights challenges and presents opportunities for advancement and applications Introduces and intertwines fundamental concepts with practical experimental approaches and outcomes Pedagogical features include working mechanisms with illustrations, step-by-step guides and case studies
