1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Metal halide perovskite solar cells have considerable potential for next-generation solar power production. However, if not controlled, the migration of mobile ions can hamper the stability of perovskite solar cells. Intensive research efforts have devised methods of suppressing ion migration and degradation in perovskite materials, resulting in solar cells that are stable over thousands of hours during accelerated ageing testing. Here, we review the chemical origins of ion migration, its effect on material and device performance and stability, and strategies to mitigate its impact. Ion migration originates in the soft lattice of the halide perovskite framework and its low defect-formation energy, but there are many different strategies to reduce its effects, from compositional engineering of materials and device architecture changes to additives and strain engineering. The field has made great progress in understanding the origin and properties of mobile ions in halide perovskites and has improved operational stability beyond expectations. Nonetheless, there are still ample opportunities to further improve the long-term durability of perovskite solar cells, either by reducing ion migration or its effect on solar cell efficiency.
