Charge transporting layer, especially hole transporting layer is crucial for efficient inverted PSCs. Organic materials were used as hole transporting layer previously. Recently, more and more inorganic hole transporting materials have been deployed for further improving the device stability. Nickel oxide(NiOx) as p-type metal oxide, owning high charge mobility and intrinsic stability,has been widely adopted in inverted PSCs. High performance over 20% efficiency has been achieved on NiOx base inverted PSCs. Herein, we have summarized recent progresses and strategies on the NiOx based PSCs, including the synthesis or deposition methods of NiOx, doping and surface modification of NiOx for efficient and stable PSCs. Finally, we will discuss current challenges of utilizing NiOx HTLs in PSCs and attempt to give probable solutions to make further development in efficient as well as stable NiOx based PSCs.展开更多
