Single crystal based solar cells as the big new wave in perovskite photovoltaic technology. Potential growth methods for the SC perovskite discussed thoroughly. Surface trap management via various techniques is broadly reviewed. Challenges and potential strategies are discussed to achieve stable and efficient SC-PSCs.
Therefore, single-crystal perovskite solar cells (SC-PSCs) have recently received significant attention in the fabrication of highly efficient and stable PSCs owing to their synergistic properties. The development of advanced SC-PSCs represents a promising pathway to fabricate highly efficient and stable perovskite-based solar cells.
Challenges and potential strategies are discussed to achieve stable and efficient SC-PSCs. The structural disorder, large grain boundaries, and significantly high defect density within polycrystalline perovskite solar cells (PC-PSCs) have raised the issue of their sustainability for an extended period.
In particular, the low efficiency (<5%) of large-area devices makes the development of an alternative perovskite photovoltaic technology challenging. In this Perspective, we highlight that the optimization of crystal growth and reduction of crystal thickness are keys to improving the performance of the large-area single-crystal PSCs.
Perovskite single crystals are free of grain boundaries, leading to significantly low defect densities, and thus hold promise for high-efficiency photovoltaics. However, the surfaces of perovskite single crystals present a major performance bottleneck because they possess a higher density of traps than the bulk.
Organic–inorganic halide single-crystal perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are promising for higher efficiency and better stability, but their development lags far behind that of their polycrystalline counterparts.

Advantages of single-crystal solar panels: First of all, this is a very high efficiency, which the manufacturers of these devices have achieved by structuring the material. The efficiency of these batteries is about 20%. A source of energy is always available (the sun). Modules are environmentally friendly. The panels are small in size. If we compare them with polycrystalline …
Monocrystalline solar panels, also known as single crystalline solar panels, are made from a single continuous crystal structure. These panels are manufactured using high-purity silicon, known as polysilicon, which is then melted and formed into a cylindrical ingot. The ingot is then sliced into thin wafers to create individual solar cells. These cells are then interconnected …
These solar panels are constructed from a single crystal structure of silicon, which gives them their characteristic seamless look with no visible grain lines. This type of solar technology is unique in its construction process. Unlike other solar panels, such as poly solar panels, monocrystalline panels are made by growing a single crystal.
