German Team Makes Printed Perovskite LEDs

Hybrid perovskite materials could lead to simplification of electronics manufacturing according to Emil List-Kratochvil, head of a Joint Research Group at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB and) Humboldt-Universität, Germany. Scientists at HZB have already shown that solar cells can be printed from a solution of semiconductor compounds. Now, the joint team of HZB and HU Berlin has succeeded in producing functional LEDs in this manner. The research group used a metal halide perovskite for this purpose.
