Abstract: | This work reports for the first time a highly efficient single-crystal cesium tin triiodide (CsSnI3) perovskite nanowire solar cell. With a perfect lattice structure, low carrier trap density (≈5 × 1010 cm?3), long carrier lifetime (46.7 ns), and excellent carrier mobility (>600 cm2 V?1 s?1), single-crystal CsSnI3 perovskite nanowires enable a very attractive feature for flexible perovskite photovoltaics to power active micro-scale electronic devices. Using CsSnI3 single-crystal nanowire in conjunction with highly conductive wide bandgap semiconductors as front-surface-field layers, an unprecedented efficiency of 11.7% under AM 1.5G illumination is achieved. This work demonstrates the feasibility of all-inorganic tin-based perovskite solar cells via crystallinity and device-structure improvement for the high-performance, and thus paves the way for the energy supply to flexible wearable devices in the future. |
