Dopant‐free hole transport materials (HTMs) are essential for commercialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of the state‐of‐the‐art PSCs with small molecule dopant‐free HTMs are below 20%. Herein, a simple dithieno[3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]pyrrol‐cored small molecule, DTP‐C6Th, is reported as a promising dopant‐free HTM. Compared with commonly used spiro‐OMeTAD, DTP‐C6Th exhibits a similar energy level, a better hole mobility of 4.18 × 10?4 cm2 V?1 s?1, and more efficient hole extraction, enabling efficient and stable PSCs with a dopant‐free HTM. With the addition of an ultrathin poly(methyl methacrylate) passivation layer and properly tuning the composition of the perovskite absorber layer, a champion PCE of 21.04% is achieved, which is the highest value for small molecule dopant‐free HTM based PSCs to date. Additionally, PSCs using the DTP‐C6Th HTM exhibit significantly improved long‐term stability compared with the conventional cells with the metal additive doped spiro‐OMeTAD HTM. Therefore, this work provides a new candidate and effective device engineering strategy for achieving high PCEs with dopant‐free HTMs. 相似文献

For commercial applications, it is a challenge to find suitable and low‐cost hole‐transporting material (HTM) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs), where high efficiency spiro‐OMeTAD and PTAA are expensive. A HTM based on 9,9‐dihexyl‐9H‐fluorene and N,N‐di‐p‐methylthiophenylamine (denoted as FMT) is designed and synthesized. High‐yield FMT with a linear structure is synthesized in two steps. The dopant‐free FMT‐based planar p‐i‐n perovskite solar cells (pp‐PSCs) exhibit a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 19.06%, which is among the highest PCEs reported for the pp‐PSCs based on organic HTM. For comparison, a PEDOT:PSS HTM‐based pp‐PSC is fabricated under the same conditions, and its PCE is found to be 13.9%. 相似文献

Organic ionic plastic crystals (OIPCs) are synthesized through a simple metal‐free, cost‐effective approach. The strategized synchronization of electron‐rich phenoxazine with benzimidazolium iodide (OIPC‐I) and bromide (OIPC‐Br) salts lead to enhanced hole mobility and conductivity of OIPCs which is suitable for an efficient alternative to conventional organic hole transporting materials (HTMs) for stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The fabricated PSCs with OIPC‐I as hole transporting layer yielded a power conversion efficiency of 15.0% and 18.1% without and with additive (Li salt) respectively, which are comparable with spiro‐OMeTAD based devices prepared under similar conditions. Furthermore, the PSCs with OIPCs show good stability compared to the spiro‐OMeTAD with or without additives. Here, first time benzimidazolium‐based OIPCs have been used as an alternative organic HTM for perovskite solar cells, which opens a window for the design of effective OIPCs for highly efficient PSCs with long‐term stability. 相似文献

Hole‐transporting materials (HTMs) play a significant role in hole transport and extraction for perovskite solar cells (PeSCs). As an important type of HTMs, the spiro‐architecture‐based material is widely used as small organic HTM in PeSCs with good photovoltaic performances. The skeletal modification of spiro‐based HTMs is a critical way of modifying energy level and hole mobility. Thus, many spiro alternatives are developed to optimize the spiro‐type HTMs. Herein, a novel carbazole‐based single‐spiro‐HTM named SCZF‐5 is designed and prepared for efficient PeSCs. In addition, another single‐spiro HTM SAF‐5 with reported 10‐phenyl‐10H‐spiro[acridine‐9,9′‐fluorene] (SAF) core is also synthesized for comparison. Through varying from SAF core to SCZF core as well as comparing with the classic 9,9′‐spiro‐bifluorene, it is found that the new HTM SCZF‐5 exhibits more impressive power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 20.10% than SAF‐5 (13.93%) and the commercial HTM spiro‐OMeTAD (19.11%). On the other hand, the SCZF‐5‐based device also has better durability in lifetime testing, indicating the newly designed SCZF by integrating carbazole into the spiro concept has good potential for developing effective HTMs. 相似文献

Although several hole‐transporting materials (HTMs) have been designed to obtain perovskite solar cells (PSCs) devices with high performance, the dopant‐free HTMs for efficient and stable PSCs remain rare. Herein, a rigid planar 6,12‐dihydroindeno[1,2‐b]fluorine (IDF) core with different numbers of bulky periphery groups to construct dopant‐free HTMs of IDF‐SFXPh, IDF‐DiDPA, and IDF‐TeDPA is modified. Thanks to the contributions of the planar IDF core and the twisted SFX periphery groups, the dopant‐free IDF‐SFXPh‐based PSCs device achieves a device performance of 17.6%, comparable to the doped 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD)‐based device (17.6%), with much enhanced device stability under glovebox and ambient conditions. 相似文献

Organo‐lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received great attention because of their optimized optical and electrical properties for solar cell applications. Recently, a dramatic increase in the photovoltaic performance of PSCs with organic hole transport materials (HTMs) has been reported. However, as of now, future commercialization can be hampered because the stability of PSCs with organic HTM has not been guaranteed for long periods under conventional working conditions, including moist conditions. Furthermore, conventional organic HTMs are normally expensive because material synthesis and purification are complicated. It is herein reported, for the first time, octadecylamine‐capped pyrite nanoparticles (ODA‐FeS2 NPs) as a bi‐functional layer (charge extraction layer and moisture‐proof layer) for organo‐lead halide PSCs. FeS2 is a promising candidate for the HTM of PSCs because of its high conductivity and suitable energy levels for hole extraction. A bi‐functional layer based on ODA‐FeS2 NPs shows excellent hole transport ability and moisture‐proof performance. Through this approach, the best‐performing device with ODA‐FeS2 NPs‐based bi‐functional layer shows a power conversion efficiency of 12.6% and maintains stable photovoltaic performance in 50% relative humidity for 1000 h. As a result, this study has the potential to break through the barriers for the commercialization of PSCs. 相似文献

Photovoltaics based on organic?inorganic perovskites offer new promise to address the contemporary energy and environmental issues. These solar cells have so far largely relied on small‐molecule hole transport materials such as spiro‐OMeTAD, which commonly suffer from high cost and low mobility. In principle, polyfluorene copolymers can be an ideal alternative to spiro‐OMeTAD, given their low price, high hole mobility and good processability, but this potential has not been explored. Herein, polyfluorene derived polymers‐TFB and PFB, which contain fluorine and arylamine groups, are demonstrated and can indeed rival or even outperform spiro‐OMeTAD as efficient hole‐conducting materials for perovskite solar cells. In particular, under the one‐step perovskite deposition condition, TFB achieves a 10.92% power conversion efficiency that is considerably higher than that with spiro‐OMeTAD (9.78%), while using the two‐step perovskite deposition method, about 13% efficient solar cells with TFB (12.80%) and spiro‐OMeTAD (13.58%) are delivered. Photoluminescence reveals the efficient hole extraction and diffusion at the interface between CH3NH3PbI3 and the hole conducting polymer. Impedance spectroscopy uncovers the higher electrical conductivity and lower series resistance than spiro‐OMeTAD, accounting for the significantly higher fill factor, photocurrent and open‐circuit voltage of the TFB‐derived cells than with spiro‐MeOTAD. 相似文献

Developing efficient interfacial hole transporting materials (HTMs) is crucial for achieving high‐performance Pb‐free Sn‐based halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here, a new series of benzodithiophene (BDT)‐based organic small molecules containing tetra‐ and di‐triphenyl amine donors prepared via a straightforward and scalable synthetic route is reported. The thermal, optical, and electrochemical properties of two BDT‐based molecules are shown to be structurally and energetically suitable to serve as HTMs for Sn‐based PSCs. It is reported here that ethylenediammonium/formamidinium tin iodide solar cells using BDT‐based HTMs deliver a champion power conversion efficiency up to 7.59%, outperforming analogous reference solar cells using traditional and expensive HTMs. Thus, these BDT‐based molecules are promising candidates as HTMs for the fabrication of high‐performance Sn‐based PSCs. 相似文献

Recently, perovskite solar cells (PSC) with high power‐conversion efficiency (PCE) and long‐term stability have been achieved by employing 2D perovskite layers on 3D perovskite light absorbers. However, in‐depth studies on the material and the interface between the two perovskite layers are still required to understand the role of the 2D perovskite in PSCs. Self‐crystallization of 2D perovskite is successfully induced by deposition of benzyl ammonium iodide (BnAI) on top of a 3D perovskite light absorber. The self‐crystallized 2D perovskite can perform a multifunctional role in facilitating hole transfer, owing to its random crystalline orientation and passivating traps in the 3D perovskite. The use of the multifunctional 2D perovskite (M2P) leads to improvement in PCE and long‐term stability of PSCs both with and without organic hole transporting material (HTM), 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis‐(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenyl‐amine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD) compared to the devices without the M2P. 相似文献

Chemical doping is often used to enhance electric conductivity of the conjugated molecule as hole‐transporting material (HTM) for the application in optoelectronics. However, chemical dopants can promote ion migration at the electrical field, which deteriorates the device efficiency as well as increases the fabrication cost. Here, two star HTMs, namely 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenyl‐amine) 9,9′‐spirobifluorene (Spiro‐OMeTAD) and poly(triarylamine) are subjeted to chemical combination to yield dopant‐free N2,N2,N2′,N2′,N7,N7,N7′,N7′‐octakis(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐10‐phenyl‐10H‐spiro[acridine‐9,9′‐fluorene]‐2,2′,7,7′‐tetraamine (SAF‐OMe). The power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 12.39% achieved by solar cells based on pristine, dopant‐free SAF‐OMe are among the highest reported for perovskite solar cells and are even comparable to devices based on chemically doped Spiro‐OMeTAD (14.84%). Moreover, using a HTM comprised of SAF‐OMe with an additional dopant results in a record PCE of 16.73%. Compared to Spiro‐OMeTAD‐based devices, SAF‐OMe significantly improves stability. 相似文献

Electron transport materials (ETMs) play a significant role in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, conventional solution processable organic ETMs are mainly restricted to fullerene derivatives and it is challenging to obtain nonfullerene ETMs with satisfactory properties. In this work, a new organic semiconductor SPS‐4F is synthesized by utilizing the classical spiro[fluorine‐9′9‐thioxanthene] unit to construct a π‐extended core. Although spiro is normally used in hole transport materials, the new spiro derivative SPS‐4F is successfully used as an ETM in inverted PSCs with power conversion efficiency over 20%. In addition, SPS‐4F can strongly coordinate with MAPbI3 perovskite and lead to efficient surface trap passivation. The resultant PSCs exhibit excellent stability in air because of the hydrophobic property of SPS‐4F. This work opens up opportunities to obtain a new family of ETMs based on spiro and paves a way to the fabrication of high‐performance PSCs with low cost. 相似文献

Efficient and Stable Mesoscopic Perovskite Solar Cells Using PDTITT as a New Hole Transporting Layer
Mohammad Mahdi Tavakoli Jiayuan Zhao Riccardo Po Gabriele Bianchi Alessandra Cominetti Chiara Carbonera Jing Kong 《Advanced functional materials》2019,29(51)
Stability is the main challenge in the field of organic–inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Finding low‐cost and stable hole transporting layer (HTL) is an effective strategy to address this issue. Here, a new donor polymer, poly(5,5‐didecyl‐5H‐1,8‐dithia‐as‐indacenone‐alt‐thieno[3,2‐b]thiophene) (PDTITT), is synthesized and employed as an HTL in PSCs, which has a suitable band alignment with respect to the double‐A cation perovskite film. Using PDTITT, the hole extraction in PSCs is greatly improved as compared to commonly used HTLs such as 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis[N,N‐di(4‐methoxyphenyl)amino]‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD), addressing the hysteresis issue. After careful optimization, an efficient PSC is achieved based on mesoscopic TiO2 electron transporting layer with a maximum power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.42% based on PDTITT HTL, which is comparable with spiro‐OMeTAD‐based PSC (19.21%). Since spiro‐based PSCs suffer from stability issue, the operational stability in the PSC with PDTITT HTL is studied. It is found that the device with PDTITT retains 88% of its initial PCE value after 200 h under illumination, which is better than the spiro‐based PSC (54%). 相似文献

Endured, low‐cost, and high‐performance flexible perovskite solar cells (PSCs) featuring lightweight and mechanical flexibility have attracted tremendous attention for portable power source applications. However, flexible PSCs typically use expensive and fragile indium–tin oxide as transparent anode and high‐vacuum processed noble metal as cathode, resulting in dramatic performance degradation after continuous bending or thermal stress. Here, all‐carbon‐electrode‐based flexible PSCs are fabricated employing graphene as transparent anode and carbon nanotubes as cathode. All‐carbon‐electrode‐based flexible devices with and without spiro‐OMeTAD (2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis‐(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene) hole conductor achieve power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 11.9% and 8.4%, respectively. The flexible carbon‐electrode‐based solar cells demonstrate superior robustness against mechanical deformation in comparison with their counterparts fabricated on flexible indium–tin oxide substrates. Moreover, all carbon‐electrode‐based flexible PSCs also show significantly enhanced stability compared to the flexible devices with gold and silver cathodes under continuous light soaking or 60 °C thermal stress in air, retaining over 90% of their original PCEs after 1000 h. The promising durability and stability highlight that flexible PSCs are fully compatible with carbon materials and pave the way toward the realization of rollable and low‐cost flexible perovskite photovoltaic devices. 相似文献

The hole transport material (HTM) free carbon based perovskite solar cells (C‐PSCs) are promising for its manufactural simplicity, but they currently suffer from low power conversion efficiencies (PCE) largely because of the voltage loss. Here, a new strategy to increase the PCE by incorporating an ultrathin ferroelectric oxide PbTiO3 layer between the electron transport material and the halide perovskite is reported. The resulting C‐PSCs have achieved PCEs up to 16.37%, which is the highest record for HTM‐free C‐PSCs to date, mainly ascribable to the ferroelectric layer enhanced open circuit voltage. Detail measurements and analysis show an enhanced built‐in potential in the C‐PSCs as well as suppression of the non‐radiative recombination due to the ferroelectric PbTiO3 layer incorporation, accounting for the boosted VOC and photovoltaic performance. 相似文献

A series of new branched hole transporting materials (HTMs) containing two diphenylamine‐substituted carbazole fragments linked by a nonconjugated methylenebenzene unit is synthesized and tested in perovskite solar cells. Synthesis of the investigated materials is performed by a simple two‐step synthetic procedure providing a target product in high yield. The isolated materials demonstrate good thermal stability and majority of the investigated compounds exist in an amorphous state, which is advantageous as there is no risk of crystallization directly in the film. The highest charge drift mobility of µ0 = 4 × 10?4 cm2 V?1 s?1, measured at weak electric fields, is by ca. one order of magnitude higher than that of Spiro‐OMeTAD under identical conditions. From the perovskite solar cell testing results, it can be seen that performance of two new HTMs ( V885 and V911 ) is on a par with Spiro‐OMeTAD. Due to the ease of synthesis, good thermal, optical and photophysical properties, this type of molecules hold great promise for practical application in commercial perovskite solar cells. 相似文献

Compared with inverted 3D perovskite solar cell (PSCs), inverted quasi-2D PSCs have advantages in device stability, but the device efficiency is still lagging behind. Constructing polymer hole-transporting materials (HTMs) with passivation functions to improve the buried interface and crystallization properties of perovskite films is one of the effective strategies to improve the performance of inverted quasi-2D PSCs. Herein, two novel side-chain functionalized polymer HTMs containing methylthio-based passivation groups are designed, named PVCz-SMeTPA and PVCz-SMeDAD, for inverted quasi-2D PSCs. Benefited from the non-conjugated flexible backbone bearing functionalized side-chain groups, the polymer HTMs exhibit excellent film-forming properties, well-matched energy levels and improved charge mobility, which facilitates the charge extraction and transport between HTM and quasi-2D perovskite layer. More importantly, by introducing methylthio units, the polymer HTMs can enhance the contact and interactions with quasi-2D perovskite, and further passivating the buried interface defects and assisting the deposition of high-quality perovskite. Due to the suppressed interfacial non-radiative recombination, the inverted quasi-2D PSCs using PVCz-SMeTPA and PVCz-SMeDAD achieve impressive power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 21.41% and 20.63% with open-circuit voltage of 1.23 and 1.22 V, respectively. Furthermore, the PVCz-SMeTPA based inverted quasi-2D PSCs also exhibits negligible hysteresis and considerably improved thermal and long-term stability. 相似文献

Organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite solar cells are promising alternatives to silicon‐based cells due to their low material costs and high photovoltaic performance. In this work, thin continuous perovskite films are combined with copper(I) iodide (CuI) as inorganic hole‐conducting material to form a planar device architecture. A maximum conversion efficiency of 7.5% with an average efficiency of 5.8 ± 0.8% is achieved which, to our knowledge, is the highest reported efficiency for CuI‐based devices with a planar structure. In contrast to related planar 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis‐(N,N ‐di‐4‐methoxyphenylamino)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD)‐based devices, the CuI‐based devices do not show a pronounced hysteresis when tested by scanning the potential in a forward and backward direction. The strong quenching of photoluminescence (PL) signal and comparatively fast decay of open‐circuit voltage demonstrates a more rapid removal of positive charge carriers from the perovskite layer when in contact with CuI compared to spiro‐OMeTAD. A slow response on a timescale of 10–100 s is observed for the spiro‐OMeTAD‐based devices. In comparison, the CuI‐based device displays a significantly faster response as determined through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and open‐circuit voltage decays (OCVDs). The characteristically slow kinetics measured through EIS and OCVD are linked directly to the current–voltage hysteresis. 相似文献

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are demonstrating great potential to compete with second generation photovoltaics. Nevertheless, the key issue hindering PSCs full exploitation relies on their stability. Among the strategies devised to overcome this problem, the use of carbon nanostructures (CNSs) as hole transporting materials (HTMs) has given impressive results in terms of solar cells stability to moisture, air oxygen, and heat. Here, the use of a HTM based on a poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT) matrix doped with organic functionalized single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and reduced graphene oxide in PSCs is proposed to achieve higher power conversion efficiencies (η = 11% and 7.3%, respectively) and prolonged shelf‐life stabilities (480 h) in comparison with a benchmark PSC fabricated with a bare P3HT HTM (η = 4.3% at 480 h). Further endurance test, i.e., up to 3240 h, has shown the failure of all the PSCs based on undoped P3HT, while, on the contrary, a η of ≈8.7% is still detected from devices containing 2 wt% SWCNT‐doped P3HT as HTM. The increase in photovoltaic performances and stabilities of the P3HT‐CNS‐based solar cell, with respect to the standard P3HT‐based one, is attributed to the improved interfacial contacts between the doped HTM and the adjacent layers. 相似文献

Solid‐state dye‐sensitized solar cells rely on effective infiltration of a solid‐state hole‐transporting material into the pores of a nanoporous TiO2 network to allow for dye regeneration and hole extraction. Using microsecond transient absorption spectroscopy and femtosecond photoluminescence upconversion spectroscopy, the hole‐transfer yield from the dye to the hole‐transporting material 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9'‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD) is shown to rise rapidly with higher pore‐filling fractions as the dye‐coated pore surface is increasingly covered with hole‐transporting material. Once a pore‐filling fraction of ≈30% is reached, further increases do not significantly change the hole‐transfer yield. Using simple models of infiltration of spiro‐OMeTAD into the TiO2 porous network, it is shown that this pore‐filling fraction is less than the amount required to cover the dye surface with at least a single layer of hole‐transporting material, suggesting that charge diffusion through the dye monolayer network precedes transfer to the hole‐transporting material. Comparison of these results with device parameters shows that improvements of the power‐conversion efficiency beyond ≈30% pore filling are not caused by a higher hole‐transfer yield, but by a higher charge‐collection efficiency, which is found to occur in steps. The observed sharp onsets in photocurrent and power‐conversion efficiencies with increasing pore‐filling fraction correlate well with percolation theory, predicting the points of cohesive pathway formation in successive spiro‐OMeTAD layers adhered to the pore walls. From percolation theory it is predicted that, for standard mesoporous TiO2 with 20 nm pore size, the photocurrent should show no further improvement beyond an ≈83% pore‐filling fraction. 相似文献

The superior role of helical π‐linkers is demonstrated for the design of donor?π linker?donor typed molecular semiconductors in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Flat N‐annulated perylene (NP) and contorted aza[5]helicene (A5H) are side‐functionalized with methoxyphenyl and end‐capped with dimethoxydiphenylamine electron‐donor to afford two small‐molecule hole‐transporters J3 and J4. For methoxyphenyl functionalized π‐linkers, intermolecular π???π interactions in planar NP exist more extensively than those in helical A5H. However, for the dimethoxydiphenylamine derived hole‐transporters with high highest occupied molecular orbital energy levels, a part of the π???π interaction remains for J4 with A5H, while this desirable effect for charge transport is completely deprived for J3 with NP. Thus, the theoretically predicted hole mobility of J4 single‐crystal is even over two times higher than that of J3 one. Because of the larger size of the molecular aggregate, the hole mobility of the spin‐coated J4 thin film is also over three times as high as that of the J3 analog. Due to the reduced transport resistance and enhanced recombination resistance, PSCs with J4 exhibit a power conversion efficiency of 21.0% at standard air mass 1.5 global conditions, which is higher than that of 19.4% with J3 and that of 20.3% with spiro‐OMeTAD control. 相似文献
