Reducing Surface Recombination by a Poly(4-vinylpyridine) Interlayer in Perovskite Solar Cells with High Open-Circuit Voltage and Efficiency.


ABSTRACT: Identifying and reducing the dominant recombination processes in perovskite solar cells is one of the major challenges for further device optimization. Here, we show that introducing a thin interlayer of poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) between the perovskite film and the hole transport layer reduces nonradiative recombination. Employing such a PVP interlayer, we reach an open-circuit voltage of 1.20 V for the best devices and a stabilized efficiency of 20.7%. The beneficial effect of the PVP interlayer is proven by statistical analysis of various samples, many of those showing an open-circuit voltage larger than 1.17 V, and a 30 mV increase in average compared to unmodified samples. The reduced nonradiative recombination is proven by enhanced photo- and electroluminescence yields.
