The best of 2019 - top perovskite stories

2019 is soon over - and it was and interesting year for the perovskite industry - with some initial signs of commercialization as actual production capacity is being finally built and some novel research activities.

Here are the top 10 stories posted on Perovskite-Info in 2019, ranked by popularity (i.e. how many people read the story):

1. HZB team achieves 21.6% efficiency for perovskite CIGS tandem solar cell (Feb 5)
2. Perovskite-based quantum dots - a guest post by Ossila (Jan 7)
3. DoE announces $130 Million for early-stage solar research project (Mar 27)
4. Researchers reduce reflection losses and reach 25.2% conversion efficiency in perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells (Feb 22)
