“…Solar energy, as a kind of clean and renewable energy, plays an important role in the development and application of energy. 4 Since weather, time, and the solar elevation angle affect solar radiant power, which is one of the most important parameters affecting the output power of solar cells, obtaining a stable power output from solar cells is an urgent issue. 5 Consequently, solar cells are typically assembled with energy storage devices, such as lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors, to convert solar energy into electric energy and store it as chemical energy.…”
A photorechargeable supercapacitor was constructed using vanadium pentoxide (V2O5), reduced graphene oxide hydrogel (rGH), and zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate (Zn(CF3SO3)2) as the photoanode, cathode, and electrolyte, respectively.
“…PSCs utilizing C electrodes offer a promising solution due to their potential for extended durability and cost-effectiveness. Various C-based materials have been used, including pure carbon ink, graphite, carbon nanotubes, and graphene [29][30][31][32][33] . C-based materials safeguard the perovskite layer from both moisture and heat-induced degradation, thereby enhancing the long-term stability of these solar cells [34,35] .…”
Ion migration is one of the prime reasons for the rapid degradation of metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs), and we report on a method for quantifying mobile ion concentration (No) using a transient dark current measurement. We perform both ex-situ and in-situ measurements on PSCs and study the evolution of No in films and devices under a range of temperatures. We also study the effect of device architecture, top electrode chemistry, and metal halide perovskite composition and dimensionality on No. Two-dimensional perovskites are shown to reduce the ion concentration along with inert C electrodes that do not react with halides by ~99% while also improving mechanical reliability by ~250%. We believe this work can provide design guidelines for the development of stable PSCs through the lens of minimizing mobile ions and their evolution over time under operational conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
