In recent years, perovskite solar cells (PSCs), as a member of the third-generation solar cells, have achieved extensive advancements in their photon-to-current efficiency (PCE). While for realizing the commercialization of this kind of promising solar cells, the performances still need to be enhanced and novel device structures should be explored for better understanding the working mechanism of the PSCs.
Two dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene, MoS2, VS2, black phosphorus (BP) and MXene, have attracted much attention because of their high conductivity, unique anisotropy characteristic, and controllable semiconductor or metallic properties. 2D materials have been widely applied in energy conversion devices, ion batteries, and catalysts. While the application of the 2D materials in PSCs are still rare.
In our research, we synthesized several 2D materials, such as BP, VS2, and MXene, and used them to fabricate the PSCs with novel device configurations. We will report these results in the presentation.
