Briefings
A research team led by Professor Seong Sik Shin at Sungkyunkwan University developed a next-generation perovskite semiconductor thin film with dramatically reduced defects. This breakthrough enables high-performance solar cells and LEDs using the same material platform. The study was conducted in international collaboration with the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology, the University of California, San Diego, and Princeton University.
Key points
- Researchers led by Professor Seong Sik Shin at Sungkyunkwan University created a next-generation perovskite semiconductor thin film with dramatically reduced defects.
- The same material platform successfully demonstrated high-performance solar cells and LEDs.
Context
This study represents a significant advancement in perovskite semiconductor technology, enabling new applications in solar and light-emitting devices through the reduction of material defects.
Limitations
The evidence is limited to the specific research team's findings from a single study published in 2026. No additional data, experimental results, or broader impact assessments are provided.
