Perovskite Solar
Photovoltaic Technology
Unlocking the commercial viability of 3rd generation solar cells through breakthrough laser encapsulation.
Perovskite solar cells have advanced at an unprecedented pace since their first report in 2009. In less than two decades, their efficiency has surpassed 26.1% under simulated sunlight and exceeded +40% under indoor illumination at 1000 lux.
While traditional silicon photovoltaics continue to dominate outdoor applications, their performance under indoor lighting remains limited — typically below 20% efficiency. Perovskite technology has emerged as the leading solution for indoor energy harvesting, consistently outperforming alternatives such as organic photovoltaics (OPV) and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).
The key challenge for perovskite solar cells is long-term stability across both indoor and outdoor environments.

Pioneering Perovskite Encapsulation
We are at the forefront of perovskite technology, revolutionizing solar cell performance with our advanced hermetic encapsulation solutions — meticulously refined since 2010 at the University of Porto.
We tackle the challenge of long-term stability through advanced hermetic encapsulation. Our patented technology has successfully passed industry-standard reliability tests, including IEC 6146 and ISOS protocols, as well as stringent space-grade testing under MIL-STD-883. As perovskite technology continues to evolve, we are driving its transition from laboratory innovation to reliable solutions for indoor, outdoor, and space applications.
The 20-Year Advantage
The industry standard for 3rd generation solar cell encapsulation achieves approximately 7 years. By eliminating polymer ingress and creating a true glass barrier, Azure Photon ensures device lifetimes exceeding 20 years — with potential up to 30.
Outdoor & Space Applications
Our airtight encapsulation is engineered to ensure solar cells thrive under the harshest conditions — from terrestrial exposure to the vacuum of space. Validated against IEC 6146 and MIL-STD-883 aerospace standards, our solutions guarantee long-term reliability for perovskite and dye-sensitized solar cells.
Indoor Power Solutions
Our third-generation solar cells excel under diffuse indoor lighting, making them the ideal power source for small electronics and IoT devices. While competitors offer indoor lifespans of 5–7 years, Azure Photon's glass encapsulation delivers an industry-leading 20+ years — with potential up to 30 years.
Commitment to Innovation
We are committed to providing truly hermetic and long-term stable solutions. Our proven track record in intensive R&D, combined with adherence to the most stringent testing protocols, ensures we consistently deliver superior, sustainable energy solutions redefining perovskite potential.
