| description | Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) offer a number of key advantages over silicon solar cells. These include their low-cost materials, high efficiency, simplicity of fabrication, and inexpensive manufacturing techniques. To commercialize PSCs, there are many methods to develop the quality of the cells, one of them being printing techniques. Different printing techniques deposition have been developed for the perovskite solar cell, such as blade coating, slot die coating, inkjet printing, screen printing, spray coating, flexographic printing, and gravure printing. These techniques have a substantial impact on the performance of PSCs and controlling film formation to commercialize PSCs. This review summarizes a comprehensive overview of various deposition printing techniques used to fabricate PSCs during different years and different techniques, such as using different preparation methods, novel drying techniques, and ink engineering. In addition, the challenges that are faced by using these, such as material stability, reproducibility of printing processes, and cost-effectiveness techniques, are reviewed. Future research should focus on optimizing printing techniques to improve the stability and scalability of PSCs. Exploring novel perovskite materials, deposition techniques, and innovative fabrication methods may further enhance the PSCs and facilitate their commercialization. |
