The incorporation of even small amounts of strontium (Sr) into lead-based quadruple cation hybrid perovskite solar cells results in a systematic increase of the open circuit voltage (Voc) in pin-type perovskite solar cells. We demonstrate via transient and absolute photoluminescence (PL) experiments how the incorporation of Sr significantly reduces...

... we refrained from measurements of intermediate C60 coverage to minimize eventual sample changes due to prolonged illumination with UV light, we can yet draw a realistic picture of the energy level alignment based on prior art, as follows. Since the electron affinity of C60 is in the range of 4.0 eV 6 to 4.9 eV (our measurements, Fig. S9A in the SI), contact with a substrate of comparable work function will result in Fermi level pinning, i.e., electron transfer from the substrate to the acceptor C 60 and thus partial filling of its LUMO manifold 7 . In our case the substrate is the perovskite film, and the electron transfer to the molecular layer will result in reduced ...

Bifacial photovoltaic technology has been established as the effective strategy to increase the electric power generation while reducing area-related costs for silicon solar cells. For the third-generation solar cells of organolead halide perovskites, as their monofacial power conversion efficiency (PCE) has exceeded 23%, the development of efficie...

Organic-inorganic halide perovskites incorporating two-dimensional (2D) structures have shown promise for enhancing the stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the bulky spacer cations often limit charge transport. Here, we report on a simple approach based on molecular design of the organic spacer to improve the transport properties o...

Nickel oxide (NiOx)–based perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have recently gained considerable interest, and exhibit above 20% photovoltaic efficiency. However, the reported syntheses of NiOx sol-gel used toxic chemicals for the catalysts during synthesis, which resulted in a high-temperature annealing requirement to remove the organic catalysts (ligand...

Charge transport layers strongly influence the performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). To date, compact layers and mesoporous scaffolds of titanium dioxide have emerged as good electron transport layers (ETL), enabling record power conversion efficiencies (PCE). However, these ETLs require sintering above 400 °C, which excludes them from low-...
