Synergetic surface charge transfer doping and passivation toward high efficient and stable perovskite solar cells.

ABSTRACT: Organic-inorganic lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received much attention in the last few years due to the high power conversion efficiency (PCE). Generally, perovskite/charge transport layer interface and the defects at the surface and grain boundaries of perovskite film are important factors for the efficiency and stability of PSCs. Herein, we employ an extended benzopentafulvalenes compound (FDC-2-5Cl) with electron-withdrawing pentachlorophenyl group and favorable energy level as charge transfer molecule to treat the perovskite surface. The FDC-2-5Cl with pentachlorophenyl group could accept the electrons from perovskite as a p-type dopant, and passivate the surface defects. The p-type doping effect of FDC-2-5Cl on perovskite surface induced band bending at perovskite surface, which improves the hole extraction from perovskite. As a result, the PSC with FDC-2-5Cl treatment achieves a PCE of 21.16% with an enhanced open-circuit voltage (V _oc) of 1.14 V and outstanding long-term stability.

A binary 2D perovskite passivation for efficient and stable perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells.

Project description:To achieve high power conversion efficiency in perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells, it is necessary to develop a promising wide-bandgap perovskite absorber and processing techniques in relevance. To date, the performance of devices based on wide-bandgap perovskite is still limited mainly by carrier recombination at their electron extraction interface. Here, we demonstrate assembling a binary two-dimensional perovskite by both alternating-cation-interlayer phase and Ruddlesden-Popper phase to passivate perovskite/C60 interface. The binary two-dimensional strategy takes effects not only at the interface but also in the bulk, which enables efficient charge transport in a wide-bandgap perovskite solar cell with a stabilized efficiency of 20.79% (1 cm2). Based on this absorber, a monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell is fabricated with a steady-state efficiency of 30.65% assessed by a third party. Moreover, the tandem devices retain 96% of their initial efficiency after 527 h of operation under full spectral continuous illumination, and 98% after 1000 h of damp-heat testing (85 °C with 85% relative humidity).

Overcoming Perovskite Corrosion and De-Doping Through Chemical Binding of Halogen Bonds Toward Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells.

Project description:4-tert-butylpyridine (TBP) is an indispensable additive for the hole transport layer in highly efficient perovskite solar cells (PSCs), while it can induce corrosion decomposition of perovskites and de-doping effect of spiro-OMeTAD, which present huge challenge for the stability of PSCs. Herein, halogen bonds provided by 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,4-DITFB) are employed to bond with TBP, simultaneously preventing perovskite decomposition and eliminating de-doping effect of oxidized spiro-OMeTAD. Various characterizations have proved strong chemical interaction forms between 1,4-DITFB and TBP. With the incorporation of halogen bonds, perovskite film can maintain initial morphology, crystal structure, and light absorbance; meanwhile, the spiro-OMeTAD film shows a relatively stable conductivity with good charge transport property. Accordingly, the device with TBP complex exhibits significantly enhanced stability in N2 atmosphere or humidity environment. Furthermore, a champion power conversion efficiency of 23.03% is obtained since perovskite is no longer damaged by TBP during device preparation. This strategy overcomes the shortcomings of TBP in n-i-p PSCs community and enhances the application potential of spiro-OMeTAD in fabricating efficient and stable PSCs.

Synergistic Interface Layer Optimization and Surface Passivation with Fluorocarbon Molecules toward Efficient and Stable Inverted Planar Perovskite Solar Cells.

Project description:Large-size organic halide passivation has been considered an efficient approach to enhance the perovskite solar cell (PSC) efficiency and stability. Herein, a facile posttreatment strategy was demonstrated, wherein trifluoromethyl-phenethylamine hydrobromide (CF3-PEABr) is firstly used to passivate the perovskite film surface. The CF3-PEABr surface posttreatment could coordinate with halide dangling bonds that exist at the perovskite crystal surface. Moreover, the surface treatment with CF3-PEABr could efficiently passivate the defects in the perovskite film and suppress the nonradiative carrier recombination. As a result, a high efficiency of 21.3% is obtained, and an increment of 80 mV in V oc (a large V oc of 1.15 V, with a 0.42 V voltage deficit) occurs, compared to the control device. To relieve the hydrophobic nature properties of the -CF3 functional group and the dewetting problem of PCBM layer deposition, a surfactant Triton X-100 is used to modify the PCBM layer. Furthermore, the devices with CF3-PEABr posttreatment exhibit better operational, thermal (85°C), and long storage stabilities without any encapsulation.

Highly stable and efficient all-inorganic lead-free perovskite solar cells with native-oxide passivation.

Project description:There has been an urgent need to eliminate toxic lead from the prevailing halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs), but the current lead-free PSCs are still plagued with the critical issues of low efficiency and poor stability. This is primarily due to their inadequate photovoltaic properties and chemical stability. Herein we demonstrate the use of the lead-free, all-inorganic cesium tin-germanium triiodide (CsSn0.5Ge0.5I3) solid-solution perovskite as the light absorber in PSCs, delivering promising efficiency of up to 7.11%. More importantly, these PSCs show very high stability, with less than 10% decay in efficiency after 500 h of continuous operation in N2 atmosphere under one-sun illumination. The key to this striking performance of these PSCs is the formation of a full-coverage, stable native-oxide layer, which fully encapsulates and passivates the perovskite surfaces. The native-oxide passivation approach reported here represents an alternate avenue for boosting the efficiency and stability of lead-free PSCs.

Perfection of Perovskite Grain Boundary Passivation by Rhodium Incorporation for Efficient and Stable Solar Cells.

Project description:Organic cation and halide anion defects are omnipresent in the perovskite films, which will destroy perovskite electronic structure and downgrade the properties of devices. Defect passivation in halide perovskites is crucial to the application of solar cells. Herein, tiny amounts of trivalent rhodium ion incorporation can help the nucleation of perovskite grain and passivate the defects in the grain boundaries, which can improve efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells. Through first-principle calculations, rhodium ion incorporation into the perovskite structure can induce ordered arrangement and tune bandgap. In experiment, rhodium ion incorporation with perovskite can contribute to preparing larger crystalline and uniform film, reducing trap-state density and enlarging charge carrier lifetime. After optimizing the content of 1% rhodium, the devices achieved an efficiency up to 20.71% without obvious hysteresis, from 19.09% of that pristine perovskite. In addition, the unencapsulated solar cells maintain 92% of its initial efficiency after 500 h in dry air. This work highlights the advantages of trivalent rhodium ion incorporation in the characteristics of perovskite solar cells, which will promote the future industrial application.

Interfacial Contact Passivation for Efficient and Stable Cesium-Formamidinium Double-Cation Lead Halide Perovskite Solar Cells.

Project description:Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have achieved extremely high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of over 25%, but practical application still requires further improvement in the long-term stability of the device. Herein, we present an in situ interfacial contact passivation strategy to reduce the interfacial defects and extraction losses between the hole transporting layer and perovskite. The existence of PbS promotes the crystallization of perovskite, passivates the interface and grain boundary defects, and reduces the nonradiation recombination, thereby leading to a champion PCE of 21.07% with reduced hysteresis, which is one of the best results for the methylammonium (MA)-free, cesium formamidinium double-cation lead-based PSCs. Moreover, the unencapsulated device retains more than 93% and 82% of its original efficiencies after 1 year's storage under ambient conditions and thermal aging at 85°C for 1,000 h in a nitrogen atmosphere, likely due to the usage of MA-free perovskite and the enhanced surface hydrophobicity.

Diffusion engineering of ions and charge carriers for stable efficient perovskite solar cells.

Project description:Long-term stability is crucial for the future application of perovskite solar cells, a promising low-cost photovoltaic technology that has rapidly advanced in the recent years. Here, we designed a nanostructured carbon layer to suppress the diffusion of ions/molecules within perovskite solar cells, an important degradation process in the device. Furthermore, this nanocarbon layer benefited the diffusion of electron charge carriers to enable a high-energy conversion efficiency. Finally, the efficiency on a perovskite solar cell with an aperture area of 1.02 cm2, after a thermal aging test at 85 °C for over 500 h, or light soaking for 1,000 h, was stable of over 15% during the entire test. The present diffusion engineering of ions/molecules and photo generated charges paves a way to realizing long-term stable and highly efficient perovskite solar cells.

Silver coordination-induced n-doping of PCBM for stable and efficient inverted perovskite solar cells.

Project description:The bidirectional migration of halides and silver causes irreversible chemical corrosion to the electrodes and perovskite layer, affecting long-term operation stability of perovskite solar cells. Here we propose a silver coordination-induced n-doping of [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester strategy to safeguard Ag electrode against corrosion and impede the migration of iodine within the PSCs. Meanwhile, the coordination between DCBP and silver induces n-doping in the PCBM layer, accelerating electron extraction from the perovskite layer. The resultant PSCs demonstrate an efficiency of 26.03% (certified 25.51%) with a minimal non-radiative voltage loss of 126 mV. The PCE of resulting devices retain 95% of their initial value after 2500 h of continuous maximum power point tracking under one-sun irradiation, and > 90% of their initial value even after 1500 h of accelerated aging at 85 °C and 85% relative humidity.

Synergistic Interface Energy Band Alignment Optimization and Defect Passivation toward Efficient and Simple-Structured Perovskite Solar Cell.

Project description:Efficient electron transport layer-free perovskite solar cells (ETL-free PSCs) with cost-effective and simplified design can greatly promote the large area flexible application of PSCs. However, the absence of ETL usually leads to the mismatched indium tin oxide (ITO)/perovskite interface energy levels, which limits charge transfer and collection, and results in severe energy loss and poor device performance. To address this, a polar nonconjugated small-molecule modifier is introduced to lower the work function of ITO and optimize interface energy level alignment by virtue of an inherent dipole, as verified by photoemission spectroscopy and Kelvin probe force microscopy measurements. The resultant barrier-free ITO/perovskite contact favors efficient charge transfer and suppresses nonradiative recombination, endowing the device with enhanced open circuit voltage, short circuit current density, and fill factor, simultaneously. Accordingly, power conversion efficiency increases greatly from 12.81% to a record breaking 20.55%, comparable to state-of-the-art PSCs with a sophisticated ETL. Also, the stability is enhanced with decreased hysteresis effect due to interface defect passivation and inhibited interface charge accumulation. This work facilitates the further development of highly efficient, flexible, and recyclable ETL-free PSCs with simplified design and low cost by interface electronic structure engineering through facile electrode modification.
