Statistical analyses on inverted perovskite solar cells employing non-fullerene-based small molecule as a cathode interfacial layer.

ABSTRACT: In this data article, we present the influences of the solvent, concentration, and spin rates of 3,9-bis(2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-hexylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2',3'-d']-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene) (ITIC) material on the performances of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The device parameters such as open-circuit voltage (Voc), short circuit current (Jsc), fill factor (FF), and power conversion efficiency (PCE) were measured with Keithley 2400 source meter unit under 100?mW/cm² (AM 1.5?G). The data in this article describe the optimization of ITIC-based PSCs and are directly related to our research article "Non-fullerene-based small molecules as an efficient n-type electron transporting layers in inverted organic-inorganic halide perovskite solar cells" (Noh et al., Submitted for publication) [1].

In-Depth Comparative Study of the Cathode Interfacial Layer for a Stable Inverted Perovskite Solar Cell.

Project description:Achieving long-term device stability is one of the most challenging issues that impede the commercialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Recent studies have emphasized the significant role of the cathode interfacial layer (CIL) in determining the stability of inverted p-i-n PSCs. However, experimental investigations focusing on the influence of the CIL on PSC degradation have not been systematically carried out to date. In this study, a comparative analysis was performed on the PSC device stability by using four different CILs including practical oxides like ZnO and TiOx . A new implemented co-doping approach was found to results in high device performance and enhanced device stability. The PSC with a thick film configuration of chemically modified TiOx CIL preserves over 77 % of its initial efficiencies of 17.24 % for 300 h under operational conditions without any encapsulation. The PSCs developed are among the most stable reported for methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3 ) perovskite compositions.

Enhanced Ambient Stability of Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells by Employing a Modified Fullerene Cathode Interlayer.

Project description:A novel fullerene cathode interlayer is employed to facilitate the fabrication of stable and efficient perovskite solar cells. This modified fullerene surfactant significantly increases air stability of the derived devices due to its hydrophobic characteristics to enable 80% of the initial PCE to be retained after being exposed in ambient condition with 20% relative humidity for 14 days.

Functionalized Amphiphilic Diblock Fullerene Derivatives as a Cathode Buffer Layer for Efficient Inverted Organic Solar Cells.

Project description:The amphipathic interface layer sandwiched between cathode and active layers had always played a role to balance interface compatibility and interfacial energy barriers in inverted organic solar cell (OSC) devices. Two functionalized amphiphilic diblock fullerene derivatives named C60-2DPE and C60-4HTPB were synthesized and applied as an interface layer in modifying zinc oxide (ZnO). Based on their amphipathic characteristics, the solvent treatment was introduced to cause an obvious self-assembly of the two materials on ZnO. The introduced cathode buffer layer could improve the interface compatibility between ZnO and the organic active layer effectively with its amphipathic blocks. Based on the PTB7-Th:PC71BM system, the OSC devices with a functionalized fullerene derivative layer could reach a power conversion efficiency of 9.21 and 8.86% for C60-2DPE and C60-4HTPB , respectively.

Highly efficient and stable inverted perovskite solar cell employing PEDOT:GO composite layer as a hole transport layer.

Project description:The beneficial use of a hole transport layer (HTL) as a substitution for poly(3,4-ethlyenedioxythiophene): polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) is regarded as one of the most important approaches for improving the stability and efficiency of inverted perovskite solar cells. Here, we demonstrate highly efficient and stable inverted perovskite solar cells by applying a GO-doped PEDOT:PSS (PEDOT:GO) film as an HTL. The high performance of this solar cell stems from the excellent optical and electrical properties of the PEDOT:GO film, including a higher electrical conductivity, a higher work function related to the reduced contact barrier between the perovskite layer and the PEDOT:GO layer, enhanced crystallinity of the perovskite crystal, and suppressed leakage current. Moreover, the device with the PEDOT:GO layer showed excellent long-term stability in ambient air conditions. Thus, the enhancement in the efficiency and the excellent stability of inverted perovskite solar cells are promising for the eventual commercialization of perovskite optoelectronic devices.

Ultrathin Hole Extraction Layer for Efficient Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells.

Project description:Inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) incorporating poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT) as the hole transport/extraction layer have been broadly investigated in recent years. However, most PSCs which incorporate PEDOT as the hole transport layer (HTL) suffer from lower device performance stemming from reduced photocurrent and low open-circuit voltage around 0.95 V. Here, we report an ultrathin PEDOT layer as the HTL for efficient inverted structure PSCs. The transparency, conductivity, and resulting film morphology were studied and compared with traditional architectures and thicker PEDOT layers. The PSC device incorporating an ultrathin PEDOT layer shows significant improvement in short-circuit current density (J SC), open-circuit voltage (V OC), and power conversion efficiency. Because ultrathin PEDOT layers can be easily obtained by dilution, this study suggests a simple way to improve the PSC performance and provide a route to further reduce the fabrication complexity and cost of PSCs.

Self-Organized Fullerene Interfacial Layer for Efficient and Low-Temperature Processed Planar Perovskite Solar Cells with High UV-Light Stability.

Project description:In this Communication, a self-organization method of [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid 2-((2-(dimethylamino)-ethyl) (methyl)amino)ethyl ester (PCBDAN) interlayer in between 6,6-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and indium tin oxide (ITO) has been proposed to improve the performance of N-I-P perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The introduction of self-organized PCBDAN interlayer can effectively reduce the work function of ITO and therefore eliminate the interface barrier between electron transport layer and electrode. It is beneficial for enhancing the charge extraction and decreasing the recombination loss at the interface. By employing this strategy, a highest power conversion efficiency of 18.1% has been obtained with almost free hysteresis. Furthermore, the N-I-P PSCs have excellent stability under UV-light soaking, which can maintain 85% of its original highest value after 240 h accelerated UV aging. This self-organization method for the formation of interlayer can not only simplify the fabrication process of low-cost PSCs, but also be compatible with the roll-to-roll device processing on flexible substrates.

Conjugated polyelectrolyte hole transport layer for inverted-type perovskite solar cells.

Project description:Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials offer the potential for realization of low-cost and flexible next-generation solar cells fabricated by low-temperature solution processing. Although efficiencies of perovskite solar cells have dramatically improved up to 19% within the past 5 years, there is still considerable room for further improvement in device efficiency and stability through development of novel materials and device architectures. Here we demonstrate that inverted-type perovskite solar cells with pH-neutral and low-temperature solution-processable conjugated polyelectrolyte as the hole transport layer (instead of acidicPedotPSS) exhibit a device efficiency of over 12% and improved device stability in air. As an alternative toPedotPSS, this work is the first report on the use of an organic hole transport material that enables the formation of uniform perovskite films with complete surface coverage and the demonstration of efficient, stable perovskite/fullerene planar heterojunction solar cells.

Inverted organic solar cells with non-clustering bathocuproine (BCP) cathode interlayers obtained by fullerene doping.

Project description:Bathocuproine (BCP) is a well-studied cathode interlayer in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices, where it for standard device configurations has demonstrated improved electron extraction as well as exciton blocking properties, leading to high device efficiencies. For inverted devices, however, BCP interlayers has shown to lead to device failure, mainly due to the clustering of BCP molecules on indium tin oxide (ITO) surfaces, which is a significant problem during scale-up of the OPV devices. In this work, we introduce C70 doped BCP thin films as cathode interlayers in inverted OPV devices. We demonstrate that the interlayer forms smooth films on ITO surfaces, resulting from the introduction of C70 molecules into the BCP film, and that these films possess both improved electron extraction as well exciton blocking properties, as evidenced by electron-only devices and photoluminescence studies, respectively. Importantly, the improved cathode interlayers leads to well-functioning large area (100 mm2) devices, showing a device yield of 100%. This is in strong contrast to inverted devices based on pure BCP layers. These results are founded by the effective suppression of BCP clustering from C70, along with the electron transport and exciton blocking properties of the two materials, which thus presents a route for its integration as an interlayer material towards up-scaled inverted OPV devices.

Reconfiguration of interfacial energy band structure for high-performance inverted structure perovskite solar cells.

Project description:Charged defects at the surface of the organic-inorganic perovskite active layer are detrimental to solar cells due to exacerbated charge carrier recombination. Here we show that charged surface defects can be benign after passivation and further exploited for reconfiguration of interfacial energy band structure. Based on the electrostatic interaction between oppositely charged ions, Lewis-acid-featured fullerene skeleton after iodide ionization (PCBB-3N-3I) not only efficiently passivates positively charged surface defects but also assembles on top of the perovskite active layer with preferred orientation. Consequently, PCBB-3N-3I with a strong molecular electric dipole forms a dipole interlayer to reconfigure interfacial energy band structure, leading to enhanced built-in potential and charge collection. As a result, inverted structure planar heterojunction perovskite solar cells exhibit the promising power conversion efficiency of 21.1% and robust ambient stability. This work opens up a new window to boost perovskite solar cells via rational exploitation of charged defects beyond passivation.
