Who’s working on perovskite solar cells?
Perovskite cells already match silicon on efficiency in the lab, and tandems stacked on silicon go further; what holds them back is stability under heat, light and moisture, and making them at scale. This page shows how much of that work the Helikon Research Graph holds and gives you a problem statement to run in Partner Search.
What the Helikon Research Graph holds on perovskite solar cells
4,000+
researchers
18,000+

270+
U.S. patents
Counts from the Helikon Research Graph on 9 October 2026; rounded down. Each figure is counted on its own, so they are not added together.
How these were counted
- Publications: papers whose title, author names or research topics match the keyword set below, the same text the Literature search reads.
- U.S. patents: granted U.S. patents whose text matches the keyword set and that carry at least one of these CPC subclasses: H10K, H10F, H01L, H02S, Y02E. That is the Patents search with the CPC subclass field set.
- Researchers: people in the graph who authored a matching publication or are named inventors on a matching patent.
- Keyword set:
"perovskite solar cell" OR "perovskite photovoltaic" OR "perovskite tandem" OR "perovskite silicon tandem" OR "halide perovskite" OR "metal halide perovskite" OR "lead halide perovskite" OR "hybrid perovskite" OR "organic-inorganic perovskite" OR "perovskite film" OR "perovskite module"
