Bifunctional Urea–Polyethyleneimine‐Mediated Surface Engineering in SnO2 Electron‐Transport Layer for Efficient and Stable Organic Solar Cells

Because of its high conductivity, wide bandgap, and excellent photostability, tin oxide (SnO2) has long been recognized as an electron‐transport layer (ETL) in organic solar cells (OSCs). However, the energy‐level mismatch between the work function (WF) of SnO2 and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital level of Y‐series nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs), along with the abundance of surface defects on SnO2, have limited its widespread application as ETLs in OSCs. Herein, a novel approach utilizing urea‐functionalized polyethyleneimine (PEI) materials called u‐PEIs for modifying SnO2 is introduced. This modification, which serves dual purposes of WF modulation and surface‐defect passivation, can mitigate the energy barriers of SnO2/Y‐series NFA and increase the conductivity of the SnO2 film. PM6:Y6‐based OSCs with u‐PEI‐modified SnO2 (SnO2:u‐PEI) ETLs exhibit a remarkable efficiency of 16%, which significantly exceeds that (13.5%) achieved with bare SnO2‐based OSCs, along with outstanding photo‐ and thermal stability. This study confirms the efficacy of urea‐functionalized PEI for efficient and stable OCSs, paving the way for SnO2 applications.

Trivalent Nickel-Catalyzing Electroconversion of Alcohols to Carboxylic Acids.

The comprehension of activity and selectivity origins of the electrooxidation of organics is a crucial knot for the development of a highly efficient energy conversion system that can produce value-added chemicals on both the anode and cathode. Here, we find that the potential-retaining trivalent nickel in NiOOH (Fermi level, -7.4 eV) is capable of selectively oxidizing various primary alcohols to carboxylic acids through a nucleophilic attack and nonredox electron transfer process. This nonredox trivalent nickel is highly efficient in oxidizing primary alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, and benzyl alcohol) that are equipped with the appropriate highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) levels (-7.1 to -6.5 eV vs vacuum level) and the negative dual local softness values (Δsk, -0.50 to -0.19) of nucleophilic atoms in nucleophilic hydroxyl functional groups. However, the carboxylic acid products exhibit a deeper HOMO level (<-7.4 eV) or a positive Δsk, suggesting that they are highly stable and weakly nucleophilic on NiOOH. The combination (HOMO, Δsk) is useful in explaining the activity and selectivity origins of electrochemically oxidizing alcohols to carboxylic acid. Our findings are valuable in creating efficient energy conversions to generate value-added chemicals on dual electrodes.

Unraveling Different Reaction Characteristics of Alkoxy Radicals in a Co(II)-Activated Peracetic Acid System Based on Dynamic Analysis of Electron Distribution.

Peracetic acid (PAA)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have shown broad application prospects in organic wastewater treatment. Alkoxy radicals including CH3COO• and CH3COOO• are primary reactive species in PAA-AOP systems; however, their reaction mechanism on attacking organic pollutants still remains controversial. In this study, a Co(II)/PAA homogeneous AOP system at neutral pH was constructed to generate these two alkoxy radicals, and their different reaction mechanisms with a typical emerging contaminant (sulfacetamide) were explored. Dynamic electron distribution analysis was applied to deeply reveal the radical-meditated reaction mechanism based on molecular orbital analysis. Results indicate that hydrogen atom abstraction is the most favorable route for both CH3COO• and CH3COOO• attacking sulfacetamide. However, both radicals cannot react with sulfacetamide via the radical adduct formation route. Interestingly, the single-electron transfer reaction is only favorable for CH3COO• due to its lower ESUMO. In comparison, CH3COOO• can react with sulfacetamide via a similar radical self-sacrificing bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2) route owing to its high ESOMO and easy escape of unpaired electrons from n orbitals of O atoms in the peroxy bond. These findings can significantly improve the knowledge of reactivity of CH3COO• and CH3COOO• on attacking organic pollutants at the molecular orbital level.

Sn-fused perylene diimides: Synthesis, mechanism, and properties

The first example of metal Sn-fused perylene diimides (PDI) derivative (Sn-PDI) was designed, synthesized, and investigated. To obtain this type compound, a simple one-pot synthesis, named stannylative cycloaddition reaction, has been successfully developed via a palladium-based catalyst system. The novel mechanism exhibits that the reaction experiences oxidative addition, Pd-cyclization, stannylation, Pd-Sn-cyclization, and reductive elimination processes successively. This stannylative cycloaddition does realize unique σ-π hyperconjugation effect and therefore significantly influencing on the photophysical, electrochemical and excited state properties. Compared with those of PDI, both of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of Sn-PDI display large red-shifts over 20 nm. The electron energy levels of Sn-PDI have changed with an uncommon regulation. And Sn-PDI gives a considerably raised highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level of -6.00 eV More importantly, the singlet excitons of Sn-PDI could efficiently intersystem cross (ISC) into triplet state with a long lifetime of 17.8 µs, which is far longer than that (4.4 ns) of PDI.

Photoelectron Spectroscopic Study of the Interfacial Electronic Structures of Metal‐Ion Containing Polyelectrolytes on ITO Substrates

AbstractResearch in the field of organic electronics has witnessed dramatic improvements in device performance over the past several decades through an ever‐improving understanding of electron and hole movement and the development of new interfacial materials. In this study, a type of interfacial material that relies on ionic charges comprising metal:poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) polyelectrolytes are synthesized and investigated as structural analogs of the ubiquitously used poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene:polystyrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) hole transport layer, in order to investigate correlations between metal cation ions and the cationic PEDOT component. The metal ions selected for this study include Li, Mg, V, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pd, Ag, Cs, and Pb ions. To analyze the interfacial energy level alignment, electronic band structure, and band bending at the Indium tin oxide (ITO)/metal:PSS interface, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) are employed. Alkali (earth) and post‐transition metals show deep highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) levels and low work function (WF) due to Fermi level balance, implying poor hole transport. Remarkably, Cu:PSS displays a unique electronic structure, suggesting potential as a hole transport layer with increased WF and low hole injection barrier. Period 5 transition metals mirror PEDOT:PSS trends, and Ag:PSS holds the potential to form effective ohmic contacts.

Screening novel candidates of ZL003-based organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells by modifying auxiliary electron acceptors: A theoretical study

In this work, a series of ZL003-based free-metal sensitizers with the donor-acceptor-π- conjugated spacer-acceptor (D-A-π-A) structure were designed by modifying auxiliary electron acceptors for the potential application in dye-sensitized solar cells. The energy levels of frontier molecular orbitals, absorption spectra, electronic transition, and photovoltaic parameters for all studied dyes were systematically evaluated using density functional theory (DFT)/time-dependent DFT calculations. Results illustrated that thienopyrazine (TPZ), selenadiazolopyridine (SDP), and thiadiazolopyridine (TDP) are excellent electron acceptors, and dye sensitizers functionalized by these acceptors have smaller HOMO-LUMO gaps, obviously red-shifted absorption bands and stronger light harvesting. The present study revealed that the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of ZL003 is around 13.42 % with a JSC of 20.21 mA·cm−2, VOC of 966 mV and FF of 0.688 under the AM 1.5G sun exposure, in good agreement with its experimental value (PCE = 13.6 ± 0.2 %, JSC = 20.73 ± 0.20 mA·cm−2, VOC = 956 ± 5 mV, and FF = 0.685 ± 0.005.). With the same procedure, the PCE values for M4, M6, and M7 were estimated to be as high as 19.93 %, 15.38 %, and 15.80 % respectively. Hence, these three dyes are expected to be highly efficient organic sensitizers applied in practical DSSCs.

A Fused-Ring Electron Acceptor with Phthalimide-Based Ending Groups for Efficient Ternary Organic Solar Cells.

The ternary strategy has been widely applied and recognized to be a valid strategy to enhance the organic photovoltaics' (OPVs) performance. Here, a new fused-ring electron acceptor, BTP-PIO, is designed and synthesized, whose ending groups were replaced by a phthalimide-based group (2-butylcyclopenta[f]isoindole-1,3,5,7(2H,6H)-tetraone) from traditional 2-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)malononitrile. The phthalimide-based ending groups endow BTP-PIO with the highest lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level and wider band gap than those of Y6. The ternary device based on PM6:Y6 with BTP-PIO as a guest electron acceptor achieved an elevated open-circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.848 V, a short-circuit current density (JSC) of 27.31 mA cm-2, and a fill factor (FF) of 73.9%, generating a remarkable power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 17.10%, which is superior to the PM6:Y6 binary device of 16.08%. The ternary device exhibited improved charge transfer, suppressed carrier recombination, and lower energy loss. BTP-PIO exhibited a good miscibility with Y6, and an alloy phase between BTP-PIO and Y6 was formed in the ternary bulk heterojunction, leading to better phase separation and molecular packing. This research reveals that ending group modification of Y6 derivatives is a feasible way to produce highly efficient ternary devices.

Inhibition performances of new pyrazole derivatives against the corrosion of C38 steel in acidic medium: Computational study

Corrosion inhibition performances of two new pyrazole derivatives, namely 5-(4-dimethylamino)phenyl)-3-(4-dimethylamino)styryl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothio amide (P1) and 5-(4-dimethylamino)phenyl)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothio amide (P2) against the corrosion of carbon steel in acidic medium are theoretically investigated by combination of the density functional theory with the molecular dynamics approach. Additionally, the toxicity and solubility of the aforementioned molecules were investigated. Quantum chemical parameters of considered molecules (calculated energy levels of HOMO and LUMO molecular orbitals as well as the gap between them, hardness, softness, chemical potential, electronegativity, electrophilicity index, nucleophilicity, electro donating power, electro accepting power, polarizability, dipole moment, metal-inhibitor interaction energy, the fraction of electrons transferred from inhibitors to metal surface, back-donation energy, Fukui indices) were calculated at B3LYP/SVP, CAM-B3lyp/TZVP and ωB97XD/Def2-TZVP levels of theory. Comparative calculations were performed in the gaseous phase and in the aqueous solutions. The adsorption behavior of the mentioned molecules on the Fe (110) surface was investigated with the molecular dynamics. Both considered molecules demonstrates high adsorption energies on steel surface, low toxicity and high solubility. P1 is found to be more efficient in hydrochloric acid, whereas P2 molecule is found to be more efficient in sulfuric acid.

In Situ Local Band Engineering of Monolayer Graphene Using Triboelectric Plasma.

Graphene, a promising material with excellent properties, suffers from a major limitation in electronics due to its zero bandgap. The gas molecules adsorption has proven to be an effective approach for band regulation, which usually requires a harsh environment. Here, O2 - ions produced with triboelectric plasma are used for in situ regulation of graphene, and the switching ratio can reach 1010. The O2 - ions physical adsorption will reduce the Fermi-level (EF) of graphene. As the EF of graphene is lower than the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level of O2-, the adsorption of O2 - changes from uniform physical adsorption to local chemical adsorption, thereby realizing the semiconductor properties of graphene. The local graphene bandgap is calculated to be 83.4meV by the variable-temperature experiment. Furthermore, annealing treatment can restore to 1/10 of the initial conductance. The C─O bond formed by O2 - adsorption has low bond energy and is easy to desorb, while the C═O bond formed by adsorption on defects and edges has higher bond energy and is difficult to desorb. The study proposes a simple in situ method to investigate the microscopic process of O2 - adsorption on the graphene surface, demonstrating a new perspective for local energy band engineering of graphene.

Unveiling structural and energetic characterization of the emissive RNA alphabet anchored in the methylthieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine heterocycle core.

This study presents a comprehensive theoretical exploration of the fluorescent non-natural emissive nucleobases- mthA, mthG, mthC, and mthU derived from the methylthieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine heterocycle. Our calculations, aligning with experimental findings, reveal that these non-natural bases exert minimal influence on the geometry of classical Watson-Crick base pairs within an RNA duplex, maintaining H-bonding akin to natural bases. In terms of energy, the impact of the modified bases, but for mthG, is also found to be little significant. We delved into an in-depth analysis of the photophysical properties of these non-natural bases. This investigation unveiled a correlation between their absorption/emission peaks and the substantial impact of the modification on the energy levels of the highest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). Notably, this alteration in energy levels resulted in a significant reduction of the HOMO-LUMO gap, from approximately 5.4-5.5 eV in the natural bases, to roughly 3.9-4.7 eV in the modified bases. This shift led to a consequential change in absorption and emission spectra towards longer wavelengths, elucidating their bathochromic shift.

Improving the performance of perovskite solar cells by extending π-conjugation system.

In perovskite solar cells (PSCs), hole transporting materials (HTMs) play a critical role in determining the stability and efficiency of the devices. However, the high cost and complex synthesis processes associated with conventional HTMs can hinder their widespread applications. This work presents a low-cost and efficient HTM, namely N,N'-(naphthalene-1,5-diyl)bis(1-(dibenzo[a,c]phenazin-11-yl)-1-phenylmethanimine) (PEDN), based on a naphthalene core with an extended π-conjugation system for improving the performance of PSCs. The PEDN was synthesized via a facile two-step condensation method, eliminating the need for expensive catalysts such as BINAP. The newly developed HTM with an extended π-conjugation length was compared with BEDN and spiro-OMeTAD as the benchmark HTM, in terms of their optical, electrochemical, hole mobility properties, and efficiency in PSCs. The PEDN showed suitable highest occupied molecular orbital levels (HOMOs), good hole mobilities, as well as strong hydrophobicities. The extended π-conjugation system in PEDN contributes to the stability of the solar cells. The PSCs fabricated with PEDN achieved a high efficiency of 18.61%, comparable to the efficiency obtained using the commonly used HTM spiro-OMeTAD (19.68%). Furthermore, the cost-effectiveness of PEDN makes it a suitable alternative to spiro-OMeTAD for PSC applications.

Exploring Acceptor Modification in Helicene‐Phenylamine‐Based Small Molecules for Organic and Perovskite Solar Cells

The current quantum mechanical study is focused on the fabrication of eight helicene‐phenylamine‐based molecules (MPAM1–MPAM8) to investigate their photovoltaic (PV) and optoelectronic properties for photovoltaic cells (PVCs). The outcomes revealed that fabricated chromophores showed deeper highest occupied molecular orbital levels, higher solubility, low exciton binding energy, greater hole mobility with low band gap energy than the model compound (MPAR). Moreover, the reorganization energy values interpret that newly fabricated compounds possess high charge mobility compared to the representative molecule (MPAR) which encourages their usage as HTM in PSCs. All the freshly designed molecules revealed greater estimated open circuit voltage values contrasted to the reference molecule (MPAR) which ensures their prominent working efficacy. The results signify the competence of this strategic approach, paving a new path for the fabrication of hole transport material (HTM) for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and donor molecules for organic solar cells (OSCs).

Design of Chlorinated Indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene Acceptors toward Efficient Organic Photovoltaics.

Chlorinated modifications have been extensively employed to modulate the optoelectronic properties of π-conjugated materials. Herein, the Cl substitution in designing nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) with various bandgaps is studied. Four narrow-bandgap electron acceptors (GS-40, GS-41, GS-42, and GS-43) were synthesized by tuning the electrostatic potential distributions of the molecular conjugated backbones. The optical absorption onset of these NFAs ranges from 900 to 1030 nm. Compared to the nonchlorinated analogue, the introduction of Cl atoms on the core of indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b'] dithiophene (IDT) and π spacer results in an upward shift of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital levels and induces a blue shift in the absorption spectra of the NFAs. This alteration facilitates achieving appropriate energy-level alignment and favorable bulk heterojunction morphology when blended with the widely used donor PBDB-TF. The PBDB-TF:GS-43-based solar cells show an optimal power conversion efficiency of 13.3%. This work suggests the potential of employing chlorine-modified IDT and thiophene units as fundamental building blocks for developing high-performance photoactive materials.

Influence of γ–radiation input dose and post-radiation high temperature shear grinding on polypropylene functional group composition

The effect of γ-irradiation in vacuum and air followed by HTSG of polypropylene (PP) is studied using both infrared (IR) spectroscopy and computational chemistry at the correlated G3(MP2)B3 molecular orbital theory level. γ-irradiation of PP in vacuum was found to primarily induce unsaturation and hydroxyl formation from residual system water whereas γ-irradiation of PP in air oxidizes the polymer and degrades the backbone in a thin layer due to oxygen permeability limitations as supported by the computational thermodynamics results. HTSG of the irradiated PP produced smaller particles than un-irradiated PP. HTSG of the irradiated PP led to a decrease in the IR band intensity from degradation due to a nominal homogenization of the pellet. HTSG of air irradiated PP led to a reduction in IR vibrational band intensity from oxidation due to thermal degradation. High-temperature shear grinding of γ-irradiated PP produces variable chemical and physical composition depending on irradiation input dose and environmental conditions. The combination of γ-irradiation and HTSG may be of benefit in recycling polypropylene.

Substitution Position Effects on Spiro[Fluorene‐9,9′‐Xanthene]‐Diphenylamine Hole‐Transporting Materials for Perovskite Solar Cells

The molecular structures of hole‐transporting materials (HTMs) have a significant effect on the performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this work, four small‐molecular HTMs (SFX‐1, SFX‐2, SFX‐3, and SFX‐4) are prepared by regulating the substitution sites of terminal diphenylamine groups on the spiro[fluorene‐9,9′‐xanthene] core. As SFX‐1 and SFX‐2 are well‐documented compounds, this article adopts the original publication's acronyms, referring to them as SFX‐MeOTAD and HTM‐FX′, respectively. It is found that the terminal substitution sites exhibit a noticeable effect on the molecular properties. Among these molecules, SFX‐3, whose terminal groups are located at the 3,6‐substitution site on the fluorene side of SFX, has high conductivity and hole mobility, and the highest occupied molecular orbital level matches well with the perovskite. SFX‐3 also shows better film‐forming properties and better hole extraction ability than the molecules with other substitution sites. Higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) in PSCs with SFX‐3 is comparable to that of traditional spiro‐OMeTAD, but SFX‐3's synthesis cost is only about one‐third that of spiro‐OMeTAD. Furthermore, the device utilizing SFX‐3 exhibits remarkable stability, surpassing that of spiro‐OMeTAD. Notably, the champion PCE of SFX‐3‐based PSCs reached 22.42%, marking the highest reported efficiencies among HTMs with SFX as the core.

Selenophene Substitution Enabled High-Performance n-Type Polymeric Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conductors for Organic Electrochemical Transistors and Glucose Sensors.

High-performance n-type polymeric mixed ionic-electronic conductors (PMIECs) are essential for realizing organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs)-based low-power complementary circuits and biosensors, but their development still remains a great challenge. Herein, by devising two novel n-type polymers (f-BTI2g-SVSCN and f-BSeI2g-SVSCN) containing varying selenophene contents together with their thiophene-based counterpart as the control, it is demonstrated that gradually increasing selenophene loading in polymer backbones can simultaneously yield lowered lowest unoccupied molecular orbital levels, boosted charge-transport properties, and improved ion-uptake capabilities. Therefore, a remarkable volumetric capacitance (C*) of 387.2 F cm-3 and a state-of-the-art OECT electron mobility (µe,OECT ) of 0.48 cm2 V-1 s-1 are synchronously achieved for f-BSeI2g-SVSCN having the highest selenophene content, yielding an unprecedented geometry-normalized transconductance (gm,norm ) of 71.4 S cm-1 and record figure of merit (µC*) value of 191.2 F cm-1 V-1 s-1 for n-type OECTs. Thanks to such excellent performance of f-BSeI2g-SVSCN-based OECTs, a glucose sensor with a remarkably low detection limit of 10nMm and decent selectivity is further implemented, demonstrating the power of selenophene substitution strategy in enabling high-performance n-type PMIECs for biosensing applications.

Improved Capacitive Energy Storage at High Temperature via Constructing Physical Cross‐Link and Electron–Hole Pairs Based on P‐Type Semiconductive Polymer Filler

AbstractIn this work, p‐type polymer semiconductor poly(2‐((3,6,7,10,11‐pentakis (hexyloxy) triphenylene‐2‐yl)oxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PMHT) is added into polyetherimide (PEI). Benefiting from the electrostatic interaction between strong electrophilic charged phenyls of the PEI matrix and strong electronegative benzophenanthrene unit of the PMHT filler, the physical cross‐linked networks are formed in polymer blends. Meanwhile, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital level of PEI is close to the highest occupied molecular orbital level of PMHT, which is easy to establish electron–hole pair by Coulomb force. Thus, the carrier trap is constructed in the heterojunction region between PMHT filler and PEI matrix. Both physically cross‐linked networks and electron–hole pairs can promote breakdown strength (Eb) of PEI and decrease energy loss. Importantly, PMHT filler can improve the dielectric constant of PEI. As a result, 0.75 wt% PMHT/PEI delivers an ultrahigh discharge energy density (Ud) of 10.7 J cm−3 at an Eb of 680 MV m−1 and at room temperature, and maintains a charge and discharge efficiency of above 90%. In addition, a superior Ud of 5.1 and 3.3 J cm−3 is achieved at 150 and 200 °C, respectively. This paper creates a new perspective for preparing high‐properties polymer dielectrics by combining the advantages of cross‐linking and electron–hole pairs.

Use of quinhydrone as a promising cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion battery

Aqueous zinc ion batteries have attracted attention in recent years due to growing demand for energy storage devices, cost effectiveness coupled with high energy densities. They are attractive for large-scale storage, longevity, and inherent safety. However, their development is relatively slow due to limited availability of solid inorganic frameworks wherein diffusion of Zn2+ is known to be sluggish. In the present study, traditional pH electrode redox system based on quinhydrone (QH) is proposed as a host cathode, which offers reversible and effective Zn2+ storage due to its reversible electron-donor acceptor characteristics. An attractive specific capacity of 232 mAh g−1 at 50 mA g−1 with a small polarization of 80 mV and a safe operating voltage of 1.0 V is observed. Unprecedently, the QH electrode exhibits a life span of over 2000 cycles with a fairly good capacity retention. Physicochemical characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Raman, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and electron microscopy reveal structural evolution and reversibility of active material during charge - discharge. Density functional theory (DFT) is used to understand the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) levels to support the Zn2+ storage mechanism of QH.

Dual‐Hole‐Transport‐Layer‐Facilitated Efficient Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diode

The improved luminescence and colour purity of solution‐processable perovskite materials have positioned them as promising candidates for advanced lighting technologies. Herein, a simple method is presented for fabricating dual hole‐transport layers (HTLs) of green perovskite light‐emitting diodes (PeLEDs), for improved charge balance in the emissive layer (EML). With well‐matched energy levels, and lowered charge injection barrier of the transport layers, maximum radiative recombination in the EML can be obtained. The varying highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) levels of the HTLs used in the device are in alignment with the work function of the fluorine‐doped tin oxide and HOMO of the EML. The poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)‐poly(styrenesulfonate)/N,N′‐bis(naphthalen‐1‐yl)‐N,N′‐bis(phenyl)‐2,2′‐dimethylbenzidine (PEDOT:PSS/NPD)‐based PeLED device shows outstanding performance with a maximum brightness of 19625 cd m−2, highest current efficiency of 19.2 cd A−1, and turn‐on voltage of 3.8 V among the all HTL combinations. These improvements are attributed to the well‐matched HOMO of NPD and PEDOT:PSS, with both the anode and EML allowing improved hole injection and charge balance. Electroluminescence supports the coordinates (0.22, 0.74) for pure green emission provided by the Commission Internationale de I’Eclairage. Perovskite films fabricated on top of PEDOT:PSS/NPD have the best film morphology and crystallinity with the fewest pinholes enabling improved charge transport.
