  • About

    CPPR seeks to advance perovskite solar cells (PSC) as a viable and sustainable technology for commercialization, via a highly cross-disciplinary approach. To obtain PSCs with  larger scale, higher efficiency and longer stability, the center focuses on fundamental mechanisms that govern the stability and durability of PSCs, cutting-edge techniques for improving the efficiency of single junction and tandem solar cells, technical tools and processing equipment. Practical production, sustainable circular solutions for life circle issues in perovskite solar cells.
