Supported by NCI: Mechanistic design of interfaces for stable perovskite photovoltaics cells

December 24, 2025

4.65 Million Service Units (MSU) Awarded! We are pleased to announce that our research proposal, Mechanistic design of interfaces for stable perovskite photovoltaics cells, has been approved by Australia’s National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) and awarded 4.65 MSU of high-performance computing resources!

Perovskite solar cells are a promising next-generation photovoltaic technology, yet their long-term instability remains a major barrier to commercial deployment. This project aims to overcome this challenge by developing a mechanistic, machine-learning-assisted framework to rationally design perovskite/transport-layer interfaces and grain boundaries—enhancing operational stability without sacrificing power conversion efficiency.

The NCI allocation will enable multiscale simulations and data-driven discovery that are essential for accelerating the development of stable, high-efficiency perovskite photovoltaics. Ultimately, this work aims to support Australia’s leadership in solar energy by contributing to a low-cost, sustainable renewable-energy future.
