Saule Research Institute

🎉 Exciting news! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Saule, Saule Research Institute (SRI) and Solaveni, in collaboration with our amazing project partners from Horizon Europe Project DROP-IT, have achieved a groundbreaking milestone! 🌟

Our talented PhD students Felipe and Wiktor have done an absolutely phenomenal job in developing the first-of-its-kind lead-free tin halide perovskite flexible modules, with a record Power Conversion Efficiency! 🙌🔬

This research is not just important; it's a big leap beyond any previous work on tin perovskite. These eco-friendly modules were made using scalable, industrial methods on the record module area! 🌱♻️

We couldn't have done it without the incredible contributions of all co-authors. A big thank you to each and every one of you! 🤝

Our groundbreaking research paper is now out in the ACS Energy Letters! 🚀 Delve deeper into the science behind our achievement by following this link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsenergylett.3c02066 💡

Large-Area, Flexible, Lead-Free Sn-Perovskite Solar Modules For the first time, large-area, flexible organic–inorganic tin perovskite solar modules are fabricated by means of an industry-compatible and scalable blade-coating technique. An 8-cell interconnected mini module with dimensions of 25 cm2 (active area = 8 × 1.5 cm2) reached 5.7% power conversion ...
