Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Renewable Energy
  • Device Physics

Background:

  • High-performance and stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs) require excellent film quality and charge transport.
  • Inefficient charge extraction due to energy level mismatches and defects at interfaces hinders PSC performance and longevity.
  • Current strategies often struggle to address these interfacial limitations effectively.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an innovative interfacial engineering strategy for enhancing charge extraction in PSCs.
  • To develop a bilayer-structured charge transport layer addressing energy level misalignment and interfacial defects.
  • To improve both the power conversion efficiency and operational stability of inverted PSCs.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a bilayer-structured charge transport layer using spray pyrolysis and ion doping.
  • Incorporation of magnesium-doped SP-NiOx as a component of the charge transport layer.
  • Performance and stability testing of the fabricated inverted PSCs under the ISOS-D-1 protocol.

Main Results:

  • The inverted PSC with the Mg-doped SP-NiOx bilayer achieved a champion power conversion efficiency of 22.19%.
  • The device demonstrated remarkable operational stability, retaining 93.3% of its initial efficiency after 1000 hours of testing.
  • The proposed strategy effectively improved substrate morphology and energy level alignment at the interface.

Conclusions:

  • The developed bilayer charge transport layer offers a straightforward and effective solution for interfacial engineering in PSCs.
  • This approach significantly enhances both the efficiency and long-term stability of perovskite solar cells.
  • The findings pave the way for the development of more applicable and high-performance PSC technologies.
