Perovskite Photovoltaics: Basic to Advanced Concepts and Implementation, Second Edition brings together the latest advances in perovskite photovoltaics, associated challenges and opportunities, and how to achieve further developments. This edition presents new topics and novel areas, including defect engineering, interface engineering, additive engineering, anti-solvents, single crystal perovskite solar cells, inorganic perovskites, optoelectronic characterization, and mathematical modeling of perovskite solar cells. In addition, the book contains a detailed analysis of the implementation and economic viability of perovskite solar cells, highlighting what photovoltaic devices need to be generated by low cost, non-toxic, earth abundant materials using environmentally-scalable processes. This book is a valuable resource for all those with an interest in perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, and more broadly solar energy and renewable energy, including researchers, scientists, graduate students, engineers, R&D professionals, and other industry personnel.
