Abstract

Although the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) increases rapidly, there are still some issues that limit their commercialization. The perovskite is sensitive to the water molecules, increasing the difficulty in the preparation of perovskite films in ambient condition. Most high-performance PSCs based on conventional method are required to be prepared in inert atmosphere condition, which increase the fabrication cost. To fabricate the high-quality perovskite in ambient condition, we preheated the substrates and selected the proper anti-solvent. As a result, the target perovskite films show a better crystallinity compared with perovskite film prepared via the conventional one-step deposition method in ambient condition. The PSCs prepared in ambient condition yield the improved PCE of 16.89% from a PCE of 11.59%. Compared with the reference devices, the performance stability of target PSCs is much better than that of reference PSCs.

Highlights

  • Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been attracting a lot of attention since the organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite was used as the light harvester of solar cells [1–5]

  • The light harvester layer inserted between charge transport layers is vital for photovoltaic performance of PSCs

  • The perovskite films were annealed for 1 h under the relative humidity of 30 ± 5% at room temperature, which increase the power conversion efficiency (PCE) to 16.6%

Summary

Introduction

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been attracting a lot of attention since the organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite was used as the light harvester of solar cells [1–5]. The perovskite film shows numerous excellent photoelectrical properties such as high light absorption coefficient, suitable bandgap, and good charge transport. The latest reported certified highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) reached 25.2% (https://www.nrel.gov/pv/assets/ pdfs/best-research-cell-efficiencies.20200311.pdf). The conventional structure of PSCs contains charge transport layers, light harvester layer, and electrodes [6– 11]. The light harvester layer inserted between charge transport layers is vital for photovoltaic performance of PSCs. Perovskite films are composed of numerous
