    MSE David P. Pope Distinguished Lecture: Ion Migration and Its Impact on the Stability of Halide Perovskite Solar Cells – Prashant Kamat – University of Notre Dame

    November 6, 2025 @ 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    The ability to tune the bandgap of metal halide perovskites by alloying different halide ions is key to advancing tandem solar cells and light-emitting displays. However, this compositional flexibility also […]
