Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) using organic-inorganic halides as a light-absorbing layer exhibit high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs; 25.7%) in small-area solar cells . The film quality dramatically affects the performance of PSCs and depends on the fine structure of the perovskite layers, including the crystallinity, surface coverage, and roughness. Also, Device structure dramatically affects performance, and the use of transparent conductive films with textured structures with light confinement effects effectively improves short-circuit current density. However, it is difficult to form a uniform electron transport layer on a textured structure using a solution method such as spin coating. The spray and chemical bath deposition methods can deposit films on textured structures without defects, but they require high temperatures or long deposition times.
In this study, a uniform electron transport layer was formed on a textured transparent conductive film by the sequential spin casting of positively charged Poly(9,9-bis(3'-(N,N-dimethylamino)propyl)-2,7-fluorene)-alt-2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)](PFN) and negatively charged colloidal SnO2 solution, which is applied to perovskite solar cells.
Uncoated areas were observed around the convexity without PFNs, whereas the SnO2 coverage increased with PFN. This is thought to be due to the electrostatic effect between PFN and SnO2 during deposition. FA1-xCsxPbI3 perovskite thin films were deposited on the electron transport layer using high-boiling co-solvent and Lewis bases as additives in a one-step process and without an antisolvent t[1~3]. Spiro-OMeTAD hole transport layer was deposited by spin-coating method, and finally an Ag electrode was formed by vacuum evaporation. The PCE of perovskite solar cells with a single SnO2 electron transport layer is 16.2% (13.0%) with JSC = 25.7 (25.7) mA·cm-2, VOC = 0.951 (0.874) V, and FF of 65.7% (57.9%) for the RS (FS),whereas the PFN/SnO2 bilayerd electron transport layer improves all performance factors, resulting in a PCE of 20.5% (20.0%) with JSC = 26.3 (26.4) mA·cm-2, VOC = 1.03(1.03) V, and FF of 75.5% (73.9%) for the RS (FS).
nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
