Twisting Perovskite Interfaces Slows Ion Migration and Improves Device Stability

Researchers have discovered that introducing a 'twist angle' in perovskite crystal interfaces can limit the formation of ion migration channels, thereby improving the stability of semiconductor devices. This strategy could enhance the performance of next-generation solar cells and LEDs.
Why it matters
Improving the stability of perovskite materials is a critical step toward the commercial viability of high-efficiency, low-cost renewable energy technologies.
