Perovskite
Perovskite is a type of mineral with a specific crystal structure, often referring to materials with the same arrangement. In recent years, the term mainly describes a class of lightweight, efficient materials used in solar cells, which can convert sunlight into electricity. These perovskite materials are notable for their high efficiency and potential for low-cost manufacturing compared to traditional silicon-based solar panels. Their unique crystal structure allows them to absorb sunlight effectively and transport electrical charges well, making them promising for renewable energy technology. Research continues to improve their stability and commercial viability.
