Abstract: | A novel aqueous Sn-S complex solution was applied as precursor to fabricate SnO_2 electron selective layers (ESLs) for the hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs).The tin and sulfur powder were directly dissolved in a (NH_4)_2S water solution to form Sn-S precursor.After depositon and annealing,the SnO_2 film was formed,presenting as a low cost and enviromental friendly method for preparation of ESL.The films showed excellent transmittance at visible wavelength range.Moreover,the method exhibited high compatibility for doping using Cu,Cd,Li,and Zn elements.Zn doping (0.05 M) in the as-prepared SnO_2 ESL significantly improved perovskite solar cells (PSCs) performance.The highest PCE of 13.17% was achived with 15% enhancement compared to that of undoped SnO_2 ESL samples.TiCl_4 modifications on SnO_2 film improved photovoltaic performance to 14.45%,but resulted in the poor long-term stability,around 80% more degredation than that of PSCs based on Zn-doped SnO_2 films. |
