First Time

Elastic perovskite solar cells, for the first time, have been realized by designing a stretchable nanostructured fiber and spring-like modified Ti wire as two electrodes with perovskite materials coated on the modified Ti wire through a solution process. The elastic perovskite solar cell appears in a fiber format and maintains stable energy conversion efficiencies under stretching.

Nanostructured solar cells have attracted increasing attention in recent years because their low cost and ease of preparation offer unique advantages and opportunities unavailable with conventional single-crystalline solar cells. The efficiencies of this kind of solar cell largely depend on the interfacial structure owing to the large specific interface areas and the inherent high density of interface states. In this review article, strategies of interface engineering will be introduced in detail. The up-to-date progress and understanding of interface engineering and its role in influencing the efficiency of nanostructured solar cells will be discussed. Some of the representative examples of the interface engineering method will be presented wherever necessary. Continued boosting of the energy conversion efficiency for nanostructured solar cells is anticipated in the coming years and will bring this kind of solar cell to the status of commercialization.
