Faster to Better Photovoltaic Materials with AI

Perovskite solar cells are considered a flexible and sustainable alternative to conventional silicon-based solar cells. Within just a few weeks, an international team of researchers have now discovered new organic molecules that can be used to increase the efficiency of perovskite solar cells. Dr. Jianchang Wu (HI ERN) describes how the scientists skillfully combined the use of AI with fully automated high-throughput synthesis. The strategy developed can be transferred to other areas of materials research, such as the search for new battery materials.
The results of the research work were published in the renowned journal Science.
