Nature Synthesis, Published online: 28 October 2026; doi:10.1038/s44160-026-01203-4Using an artificial intelligence-guided framework combining retrosynthetic prediction, high-throughput DFT screening and chemical expertise, a readily synthesizable self-assembled monolayer for perovskite photovoltaics is identified. The top candidate delivers 27.2% efficiency and retains >95% of its initial efficiency after 2,000 h at 65 °C under maximum-power-point tracking.

Solar cells generate electricity by absorbing sunlight in a thin layer of perovskite, a light-absorbing material. This layer is made with a liquid solution that dries and crystallizes into a solid film, but small changes in temperature, humidity and other conditions can affect the film and the performance of the solar cell.

Researchers use salt additives to reduce defects during perovskite crystal growth, achieving 26.5% solar cell efficiency and 26.1% LED external quantum efficiency.

Caelux has signed an agreement with Indian PV manufacturer INA Solar to produce 3GW of perovskite-silicon ‘hybrid tandem’ modules.

Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) hold notable promise for next-generation full-colour displays. However, realizing full-colour active-matrix displays remains a critical challenge due to varying efficiency across the red, green and blue primary colours and incompatibility with high-resolution patterning techniques. In this context, white PeLEDs paired with colour filters may offer a simplified and efficient alternative to full-colour displays. Here we demonstrate ligand-engineered CsEuI3 nanocrystals (NCs) that enable efficient single-component white electroluminescence (EL) for full-colour displays. In CsEuI3@mCP (mCP: 1,3-bis(N-carbazolyl)benzene) NCs, the intrinsic CsEuI3 inorganic field preserves blue emission from Eu2+, while surface ligand interactions modify the local Eu2+ environment and introduce complementary long-wavelength emission, producing white emission with a high colour rendering index of 85.7 and near-ideal CIE chromaticity of (0.33, 0.34). Beyond spectral modulation, mCP also promotes the electrical activation of Eu2+ emissive centres and ligand-assisted excitation involving singlet- and triplet-related states. When implementing CsEuI3@mCP NCs as the emitter, we showcase single-component white EL with a peak external quantum efficiency of 8.3% and a maximum luminance of 8,941 cd m−2. As a proof of concept, we monolithically integrate these white PeLEDs on a 256 × 256 active-matrix display chip, demonstrating dynamic video and full-colour images with a 124% NTSC colour...
