Until now, the perovskite community lacked cohesion and consistency in identifying key tests that could reveal failure modes specific to perovskite cells, which is both cause and consequence of the limited understanding of device degradation. More effort is needed to understand degradation mech...
Shuai and Iftikhar had both worked during their PhD on multilayer coatings, though on very different applications. Iftikhar designed and processed multi-layer barrier coatings for organic electronics, while Shuai developed and demonstrated multilayer dielectric mirrors for vapor sensing and mic...
