Perovskite refers to a specific type of mineral and a broader class of materials that share a similar crystal structure. Named after the Russian mineralogist Lev Perovski, these materials typically have a formula of ABX3, where 'A' and 'B' are cations of different sizes, and 'X' is an anion. Perovskites are known for their unique properties, including high electrical conductivity and the ability to absorb light efficiently. In recent years, perovskite materials have gained significant attention in the field of solar energy due to their potential to create highly efficient and cost-effective solar cells. Their ability to be produced through simple methods, such as solution processing, makes them an attractive alternative to traditional silicon-based solar cells. Researchers are actively exploring ways to improve their stability and scalability for commercial applications.
