Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted much attention due to their high-energy conversion efficiency and low production cost. However, the problems of stability and toxicity for PSCs are still unresolved. Our group carried out the studies on the PSCs from the fundamentals to their devices, including development of a series of materials for compact layer, active layer, hole transfer layer, as well as back electrodes.
Here, we present several kinds of inorganic ESLs based on amorphous WOx and its composite with NbOx, as well as SnO2 and WS2 for the PSCs. It is revealed that the composite of NbOx and WOx can improve the charge injection, transmission, and the donor density. The energy band structure and the depletion layer at the interface of ITO/ESL can also be modified. As a result, a 15.65% of PCE for the planar flexible PSC has been obtained based on the composite ESLs of NbOx and WOx fabricated at low temperature. Our recent results of Pb-free perovskites will also be presented.
