Using simulated moon dust, researchers at the University of Potsdam, Germany, have developed lightweight, radiation-resistant solar cells by pairing lunar regolith with perovskite crystals – a potential solution to the logistical challenge of powering future missions, habitats, and infrastructure directly on the Moon without relying on heavy, Earth-made panels.

AbstractThe efficiency of all-perovskite tandem solar cells has surpassed that of single-junction perovskite solar cells, yet they still suffer from interfacial non-radiative recombination losses. Charge-selective materials that can reduce such losses and fabrication cost and be applied to both subcells should be developed.
