The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) has been awarded a $250,000 Cooperative Agreement from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087). The overall objective of this 28-month project is to develop a "bilithic integration" approach as a scalable integration strategy to produce highly efficient perovskite solar modules while mitigating the degradation issues associated with traditional "monolithic" integration methods. The bilithic approach involves preparing the active device components on two separate substrates and then joining them together into a final module, in contrast to the serial processing on a single substrate. This project aims to advance this scalable integration technique as a means to improve the performance and long-term reliability of perovskite-based solar modules.
