A high-purity methylammonium lead iodide complex with intercalated dimethylformamide (DMF) molecules, CH NH PbI ⋅DMF, is introduced as an effective precursor material for fabricating high-quality solution-processed perovskite layers. Spin-coated films of the solvent-intercalated complex dissolved in pure dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) yielded thick, dense perovskite layers after thermal annealing. The low volatility of the pure DMSO solvent extended the allowable time for low-speed spin programs and considerably relaxed the precision needed for the antisolvent addition step. An optimized, reliable fabrication method was devised to take advantage of this extended process window and resulted in highly consistent performance of perovskite solar cell devices, with up to 19.8 % power-conversion efficiency (PCE). The optimized method was also used to fabricate a 22.0 cm , eight-cell module with 14.2 % PCE (active area) and 8.64 V output (1.08 V/cell).

Carbon perovskite solar cells (C-PSCs) represent a promising photovoltaic technology that addresses the long-term operating stability needed to compete with commercial Si solar cells. However, the poor interface contacts between the carbon electrode and the perovskite result in a gap between C-PSC's performances and state-of-the-art PSCs based on metallic back electrodes. In this work, Cu (II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) was rediscovered as an effective hole-transporting material (HTM) to be coupled with carbon electrodes.
