Abstract:
Recently, interface and compositional engineering have been effective approaches in the field of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this work, the surface of the nickel oxide layer and perovskite composition are modified by poly[(9,9-bis(30-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethylammonium)-propyl)-2,7-fluorene)-alt-2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)] dibromide (PFN-P2) and deionized (DI) water, respectively, which result in a device with 20.5% efficiency and great stability.

Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
