Abstract
Halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have shown outstanding performance, which can be further improved through enhancing the built-in electric field (Vbi) and reducing non-radiative recombination pathways. Here we in-situ grow an organic-inorganic ferroelectric layer on the perovskite film, which can be easily and quickly processed even at room-temperature within one minute. The in-situ process endows intimate growth of ferroelectric layer on the original perovskite grains, which can reduce the formation of grain boundaries and thus minimize the recombination of electron and hole at grain boundaries. The Vbi of the PSCs is enhanced from 1.02 V to 1.28 V due to the widened space charge depletion region after the formation of ferroelectric layer. Finally, an output photovoltage up to 1198 mV is achieved with a champion efficiency of 22.45% and a low voltage deficit of 352 mV. The strategy offers a new platform of growing intimate ferroelectric layers on perovskite photoactive films for integration between ferroelectrics and PSCs.
