Hybrid organic and inorganic perovskites (HOIP) have shown remarkable progress since the first realization of efficient PSCs with a PCE of 3.9% in 2009; the record PCE reached 23.3% in 2018. The next step will undoubtedly be developing scale-up techniques for transitioning small-area devices to large-area modules. Most books outline only the basic theoretical background, fabrication methods and/or applications. To bridge the gap between academia and industry, a profound understanding of the recent advancements in the HOIPs field is necessary. Experts' insights in this book present an in-depth overview of information regarding the materials synthesis methodologies, effects of dopants, optimized optoelectronic properties, suitable deposition methods, engineering and improving the stability of various device architectures using printing methods for flexible large-area PSC modules, including the module concept, discuss various challenges and issues that can open the door for the researchers towards commercialization of durable perovskite solar cells.Moreover, this book also covers the developments on the zero-, two-, and three-dimensional non-toxic perovskite/non-perovskite materials, the radiation degradation of solar cells, the synergetics of cooperative phenomena in tandem systems and provide some recommendations to overcome the challenges for improving the photoconversion efficiency.

The book provides an explanation of the operation of photovoltaic devices from a broad perspective that embraces a variety of materials concepts, from nanostructured and highly disordered organic materials, to highly efficient devices such as the lead halide perovskite solar cells. The book establishes from the beginning a simple but very rich model of a solar cell, in order to develop and understand step by step the photovoltaic operation according to fundamental physical properties and constraints. It emphasizes the aspects pertaining to the functioning of a solar cell and the determination of limiting efficiencies of energy conversion. The final chapters of the book establish a more refined and realistic treatment of the many factors that determine the actual performance of experimental devices: transport gradients, interfacial recombination, optical losses and so forth. The book finishes with a short review of additional important aspects of solar energy conversion, such as the photonic aspects of spectral modification, and the direct conversion of solar photons to chemical fuel via electrochemical reactions.
