Summary

The internship is part of the energy transition, focusing on perovskite solar cells. These are promising due to their low manufacturing cost, but suffer from a lack of stability.

The use of a carbon electrode is the preferred solution to increase this stability and facilitate industrial scale-up, although encapsulation remains a challenge.

The main objective of the internship is to contribute to the development and production of these carbon electrode cells, specifically with a view to their future encapsulation (a step carried out by a partner laboratory).
