A study finds that a structure composed of chemically and thermally stable oxides can provide a scaffold for constructing perovskite solar cells that not only enables removal and replacement of perovskite as the material degrades, but also returns to full photovoltaic performance and around 11.08% power conversion efficiency upon perovskite replacement.
