Degradation Kinetics of Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

چکیده
We explore the degradation behaviour under continuous illumination and direct oxygen exposure of inverted unencapsulated formamidinium(FA)0.83Cs0.17Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3, CH3NH3PbI3, and CH3NH3PbI3-xClx perovskite solar cells. We continuously test the devices in-situ and in-operando with current-voltage sweeps, transient photocurrent, and transient photovoltage measurements, and find that degradation in the CH3NH3PbI3-xClx solar cells due to oxygen exposure occurs over shorter timescales than FA0.83Cs0.17Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3 mixed-cation devices. We attribute these oxygen-induced losses in the power conversion efficiencies to the formation of electron traps within the perovskite photoactive layer. Our results highlight that the formamidinium-caesium mixed-cation perovskites are much less sensitive to oxygen-induced degradation than the methylammoniumbased perovskite cells, and that further improvements in perovskite solar cell stability should focus on the mitigation of trap generation during ageing.

Annealing Effect on (FAPbI3)1−x(MAPbBr3)x Perovskite Films in Inverted-Type Perovskite Solar Cells
This study determines the effects of annealing treatment on the structure and the optical and electronic behaviors of the mixed (FAPbI₃)1-x(MAPbBr₃)x perovskite system. The experimental results reveal that (FAPbI₃)1-x(MAPbBr₃)x (x ~ 0.2) is an effective light-absorbing material for use in inverted planar perovskite solar cells owing to its large absorbance and tunable band gap. Therefore, good ...

We introduced a new approach to deposit perovskite layer with no need for dissolving perovskite precursors. Deposition of Solution-free perovskite (SFP) layer is a key method for deposition of perovskite layer on the hole or electron transport layers that are strongly sensitive to perovskite precursors. Using deposition of SFP layer in the perovskite solar cells would extend possibility of usin...
