Subse- quently, their application as hole-transporting materials (HTMs) in CHBNI-I3Pb|3 perovskite solar cells was explored. It was found that rationally increasing the work function of HTMs proves beneficial in improving the open circuit voltage (Voc) of the devices with an ITO/conductive-polymer/CHBNHBPbIg/C60/BCP/Ag structure. In addition, the higher-Voc devices with a higher-work-function HTM exhibited higher recombination resistances. The highest open circuit voltage of 1.04 V was obtained from devices with PCT, with a work function of -5.4 eV, as the hole-transporting layer. Its power conversion efficiency attained a value of approximately 16.5%, with a high fill factor of 0.764, an appreciable open voltage of 1.01 V and a short circuit current density of 21.4 mA.cm-2. This simple, controllable and low-cost manner of preparing HTMs will be beneficial to the production of large-area perovskite solar cells with a hole-transportin~ laver.展开更多

However, the band alignment between the transport materials and the perovskite absorber has not been optimized, resulting in a lower open-circuit voltage (Voc) than that of regular PSCs. To address this issue, we tune the band alignment in perovskite photovoltaic architecture by introducing bilayer structured transport materials, e.g., the hole transport material poly(ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/V2Os. In this study, solution processed inorganic V2Ox interlayer is incorporated into PEDOT:PSS for achieving improved film surface properties as well as optical and electrical properties. For example, the work function (WF) was changed from 5.1 to 5.4 eV. A remarkably high PCE of 17.5% with nearly free hysteresis and a stabilized efficiency of 17.1% have been achieved. Electronic impedance spectra (EIS) demonstrate a significant increase in the recombination resistance after introducing the interlayer, associated with the high Voc output value of 1.05 V. Transient photocurrent and photovoltage measurements indicate that a comparable charge transport process and an inhibited recombination process occur in the PSC with the introduction of the V20x interlayer.展开更多
