Published: January 2018
A NiO -graphene oxide (NiO -GO) hybrid has been prepared by a simple solution-processed method and was used as hole-extraction material in perovskite solar cells with either gold or carbon as back contact electrode. The impact of GO content on the optoelectronic behavior of NiO and the photovoltaic performance of the fabricated devices has been studied. Thus, GO incorporation showed a significant improvement in the performance of NiO -based devices. The best attained efficiency was 13.3%, and it was 45% higher than that with pure NiO . This is attributed to a significant improvement in the hole extraction, recombination resistance, and energy-level matching in comparison to pure NiO . In addition, NiO -GO/Au-based perovskite solar cell devices showed a negligible hysteresis effect and high reliability and repeatability. When carbon was used as back contact electrode, the obtained efficiencies were lower, but it leaves space for improvement. Devices based on inorganic hole transporters NiO or NiO -GO demonstrated higher stability in ambient air compared to a standard cell based on spiro-OMeTAD.

Hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as a promising alternative to crystalline silicon solar cells, owing to their excellent photovoltaic characteristics and straightforward fabrication processes. However, the rapid crystallization dynamics frequently results in unfavorable film morphology, giving rise to a plethora of defect sites and fostering the formation of trapped non-radiative recombination centers, thus limiting the further advancement and refinement of PSC technology. In this study, we introduce N-benzoylthiourea (N-BzTu) molecules as a passivate agent within PSCs through anti-solvent additive approach.

This study investigates innovative hybrid perovskite solar cells using rubidium-germanium-iodide (RbGeI) as the substrate, incorporating various hole transport layers like CuO, CuO, and SnSe, and wide-bandgap chalcogenide electron transport layers (ETLs) like IGZO, WS, InS, and ZnSe. After selecting IGZO as the optimal ETL, its depth was optimized using the SCAPS-1D simulator to evaluate device performance. Three device configurations were examined: device-I (Al/FTO/IGZO/RbGeI/CuO/Ni), device-II (Al/FTO/IGZO/RbGeI/CuO/Ni), and device-III (Al/FTO/IGZO/RbGeI/SnSe/Ni), with a detailed analysis of the doping concentration, thickness of the layer, density of defect, operational temperature, and interface defects.

The phase segregation of wide-band gap perovskite solar cells (PSCs) typically originates from defect centers and strain induced by nonstoichiometric compounds. In this study, we have discovered an excess of PbI at the buried interface in inverted wide-band gap PSCs. To address this issue, RbI is introduced to interact with the excessive PbI, thereby in situ forming a layer of inorganic perovskite RbPbI.

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have made significant progress in efficiency, but their long-term operational stability remains an important yet challenging issue. Here, a dual-site passivation coupling internal encapsulation strategy is developed by introducing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-benzenethiol (35BBT) at the perovskite (PVK)/hole transport layer (HTL) interface. 35BBT provides dual active sites containing sulfur (S) atoms and fluorine (F) atoms, where the S atoms in the sulfhydryl group and the F atoms in the trifluoromethyl group coordinate with unpaired Pb to form coordinate bonds, meanwhile the F atoms in the trifluoromethyl group form hydrogen bonds with organic cations.

Perovskite materials have wide application prospects in many fields due to their tunable and designable band gap characteristics. Machine learning has obvious advantages in quickly and effectively discovering new materials. However, noise interference within data sets frequently hinders the ability of traditional predictive and evaluative techniques to satisfy practical requirements.
