Description

Huilong Liu, Rubaiya Murshed, and Shubhra Bansal explore a cheaper solar cell material by swapping some costly platinum for nickel. Published in 2024, the work deals with halide perovskites, a class of light absorbing crystals. One such material has a good bandgap and long carrier life, but platinum's price blocks wide use.

The team made thin films from mixes of platinum and nickel salts and tracked how heat changed them. Full nickel films formed a mixed phase with leftover starting salt and a wider bandgap. A half and half mix gave a stable phase with better crystal quality after long heating. The authors also ran a cost analysis to weigh the trade-offs.
