Abstract

AbstractAdvancing inverted (p‐i‐n) perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is critical for commercial applications given their compatibility with different bottom cells for tandem photovoltaics, low‐temperature processability (≤100 °C), and promising operational stability. Although inverted PSCs have achieved an efficiency of over 25 % using doped or expensive organic hole transport materials (HTMs), their synthesis cost and stability still cannot meet the requirements for their commercialization. Recently, dopant‐free and low‐cost non‐stoichiometric nickel oxide nanocrystals (NiOx NCs) have been extensively studied as a low‐cost and effective HTM in perovskite optoelectronics. In this minireview, we summarize the synthesis and surface‐functionalization methods of NiOx NCs. Then, the applications of NiOx NCs in other perovskite optoelectronics beyond photovoltaics are discussed. Finally, we provide a perspective for the future development of NiOx NCs for the commercialization of perovskite optoelectronics.
