Abstract
Crystal symmetry plays a fundamental role in emergent properties and behavior. Subject to external excitations, such as a strain gradient, changes in symmetry may lead to new properties. Recent research demonstrates that bending perovskite-based photovoltaic cells can enhance their efficiency by approximately 15%, suggesting a novel pathway for increasing performance.
