Rice engineers suppress perovskite yellow-phase degradation with dual additives

Los Angeles CA (SPX) May 04, 2026

Rice University chemical engineers have developed a method to make perovskite-based photovoltaics more durable by driving the material directly into its desirable black crystal phase while making it harder to degrade into an inactive yellow phase.

Aditya Mohite and collaborators used two key additives in the precursor solution to create perovskite crystalline films that retained 98 percent
