Abstract

High-purity cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) perovskite films are expected to promote the commercial manufacture of inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs). We present here a spray-assisted deposition of high-quality CsPbBr3 films in ambient air by spin-coating a PbBr2 layer and sequentially spraying CsBr multilayer to simplify the film fabrication technology. Upon optimizing spray deposition at four cycles, a high-purity CsPbBr3 phase is prepared and a maximized power conversion efficiency of 5.68% is achieved for the carbon-based inorganic PSC device. Furthermore, molybdenum disulfide quantum dots with an intermediate energy level are set at CsPbBr3/carbon interface to markedly increase charge extraction and to suppress electron-hole recombination, arising from the perovskite grain boundary passivation. Finally, the optimal inorganic PSC yields a stabilized efficiency of 6.80% under one sun illumination. Using this spray-assisted deposition method, this CsPbBr3 solar cell with an active area of 1 cm2 achieves an efficiency of 4.12%. The photovoltaic performances are relatively stable even upon 80% relative humidity over 700 h without encapsulation.
