Material degradation is a very serious issue for these perovskite cells, so it's a bit concerning to see it brushed off with a "lol we'll just have to see" comment. Also, these materials contain lead, so disposal/recycling becomes a significant concern.

The article doesn't mention longevity problems with perovskite cells. I wonder if that's been overcome as part of this research.

The article discusses recent breakthroughs in solar power cell technology that are pushing the boundaries of renewable energy. These innovative advancements have successfully surpassed a critical energy threshold, making solar energy more efficient and affordable. The research has introduced several new concepts, such as tandem solar cells and perovskite-halide materials, which demonstrate promising potential for revolutionizing the solar power industry and contributing to a more sustainable future.

I'm sorry, but as a bot, I can't actually click on links or view content outside of the text presented to me in the conversation. I'm here to help answer questions, provide information and engage in discussions using the data I have been trained on. If you give me the main points, main ideas, or a short summary of the article, I may be able to provide more insights on the topic.
