The École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) developed a solvothermal method to deposit uniform "single‑crystalline" TiO2 particles on top of a perovskite absorber layer. According to the researchers, the TiO2 particles showed lower "lattice" mismatches, resulting in a lower number of defects... Not part of subscription
