Abstract

Abstract : In recent years, high‐efficient and low‐cost perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have triggered a strong interest in the photovoltaic (PV) field. However, it is still challenging to develop cost‐effective perovskite fabrication technologies for meeting the demands of mass production. The latest developed tubular chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with high level of controllability, versatility, and scalability has emerged as a promising preparation method for perovskites. Thus here we summarize the recent progress of perovskites grown by CVD approaches, and give emphasis not only to the preparation methods and reaction mechanisms but also to the related structures and specific properties, and also highlight their prospective PV application. Abstract : Recently, the cost‐effective tubular chemical vapor deposition has been successfully introduced into the fabrication of perovskite solar cells and emerged as a promising technology for their future mass production. Herein, recent progress in the fields of material preparation, characterization, property and application are discussed.
