Abstract
A N,N-dimethylamino substituted tetraphenylethylene derivative (TPE-NMe) was synthesized and characterized, and was successfully applied as hole transport material (HTM) in perovskite solar cells. The methoxy-substituted analogue TPE-4DPA was also studied for comparison. The effect of replacing the para-methoxy substituent with N,N-dimethylamino on photophysical properties, energy levels, and hole transport properties is investigated. Photovoltaic performances of the corresponding devices using the two HTMs are studied. Compared to the methoxy substituent, the N,N-dimethylamino groups in TPE-NMe generates a lower Voc (0.87 V), yet it provides higher Jsc (21.69 mA/cm2) and FF (0.73) values, resulting in an overall power conversion efficiency of 13.78%.
