Surface Property Tuning of Methylammonium Lead Iodide by Plasma for Use in Planar Perovskite Solar Cells.

The demand for cheap and green energy as a replacement for fossil fuels has never been greater, and perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are among the leading means of meeting it. The surface properties of metal halide perovskite layers play crucial roles in the performance and durability of such cells. Consequently, a wide range of engineering processes for surface modification of perovskite layers has been investigated and among them is atmospheric pressure plasma (APP).
