Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites hold tremendous promise for next-generation portable power source applications. However, the device reliability under severe mechanical deformations is limited due to use of brittle indium tin oxide (ITO). In current study, we have attempted enhance bendability by employing an encapsulation on ITO coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. The aim this encapsulant buffer layer shift location maximum bending stresses away from as well provide...
A photovoltaic (PV) module is subjected to numerous cycles of mechanical and thermal loads during its lifetime. These can induce normal shear stresses in different layers the module. Normal may lead crack development propagation silicon resulting power loss. Excessive culminate delamination layers. Choosing appropriate materials, module-layout design layers' dimensions help mitigating that premature failure. However, it both expensive time consuming evaluate most optimum conditions for...
Efficient and uninhibited production of power from PV module depends on all parts the performing without getting degraded. Continuous flow sand particles in deserts can erode backsheet during day night alike. Erosion this kind is insidious nature curtail longevity modules. In current study, erosion rates have been compared for two backsheets different manufacturers when eroded by Indian sand. mechanisms each sets experimental conditions are presented work. It has found that tensile...
2D Ruddlesden Popper perovskites have been extensively studied for their exceptional optical and electronic characteristics while only a few studies shed light on mechanical properties. The existing literature mainly discusses the strength of single crystal perovskites, however systematic study towards structure tunability perovskite thin films is still missing. In this study, we report effect number inorganic layers `n' elastic modulus Butylammonium based 2D, quasi-2D 3D using...
