Recent Progress on Metal Halide Perovskite Solar Minimodules

The rapid development of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) in view of efficiency during the past decade has made this emerging photovoltaic (PV) technology a promising competitor in the PV market. In the next step, PSCs need be manufactured into module scale to meet the commercialization requirements for further practical application. Demonstrations of perovskite solar modules (PSMs) and their improvements in efficiency and stability have recently become an intense area of research activities. Minimodules with the size suitable for laboratory investigation are naturally recognized as a desirable model for the study of PSMs. Herein, the recent progress and challenges in perovskite solar minimodules and the efforts to improve their scalable fabrication, efficiency, and stability are reviewed. Minimodule architectures, minimodule fabrication, and progress in the scalable deposition of perovskite and charge‐transport layers as well as minimodule encapsulation are also discussed.
