“…The method is quick and simple when making small single cells, but it is prone to human error and becomes time-consuming and complex at larger scale. Alternative methods suitable for larger devices and high throughput production have been explored, including inkjet printing [34,35], robotic dispensers and mesh (RbM) [31,32,36] and slot-die coating [33,37].…”

Triple-Mesoscopic Carbon Perovskite Solar Cells: Materials, Processing and Applications

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have already achieved comparable performance to industrially established silicon technologies. However, high performance and stability must be also be achieved at large area and low cost to be truly commercially viable. The fully printable triple-mesoscopic carbon perovskite solar cell (mCPSC) has demonstrated unprecedented stability and can be produced at low capital cost with inexpensive materials. These devices are inherently scalable, and large-area modules have already been fabricated using low-cost screen printing. As a uniquely stable, scalable and low-cost architecture, mCPSC research has advanced significantly in recent years. This review provides a detailed overview of advancements in the materials and processing of each individual stack layer as well as in-depth coverage of work on perovskite formulations, with the view of highlighting potential areas for future research. Long term stability studies will also be discussed, to emphasise the impressive achievements of mCPSCs for both indoor and outdoor applications.

“…During the past decade, organic–inorganic halide perovskites (PVKs) have risen as one of the most promising semiconductor families for various advanced applications in optoelectronics, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) [ 1 ], lasers [ 1 ], photodetectors [ 2 ], scintillators [ 3 ], and solar cells [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ]. PVKs are especially promising for photovoltaic applications due to a broad range of favorable properties: (i) preparation from solutions, at low temperature and low cost, (ii) long charges diffusion lengths, (iii) direct optical transition, (iv) a bandgap that can be tuned by playing on the material composition, and (v) low exciton binding energy [ 2 , …”

“…To date, 2,2′,7,7′-tetrakis( N , N ’-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9′-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) is the most popular hole-transporting material (HTM), and TiO 2 is a popular electron-transporting material (ETM). However, a different cell architecture has proven more suitable for producing highly stable devices [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. It is composed of three stacked mesoporous layers, i.e., TiO 2 /ZrO 2 /carbon.…”

During the past decade, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has risen rapidly, and it now approaches the record for single crystal silicon solar cells. However, these devices still suffer from a problem of stability. To improve PSC stability, two approaches have been notably developed: the use of additives and/or post-treatments that can strengthen perovskite structures and the use of a nontypical architecture where three mesoporous layers, including a porous carbon backcontact without hole transporting layer, are employed. This paper focuses on 5-ammonium valeric acid iodide (5-AVAI or AVA) as an additive in methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI). By combining scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL), current–voltage measurements, ideality factor determination, and in-depth electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) investigations on various layers stacks structures, we discriminated the effects of a mesoscopic scaffold and an AVA additive. The AVA additive was found to decrease the bulk defects in perovskite (PVK) and boost the PVK resistance to moisture. The triple mesoporous structure was detrimental for the defects, but it improved the stability against humidity. On standard architecture, the PCE is 16.9% with the AVA additive instead of 18.1% for the control. A high stability of TiO2/ZrO2/carbon/perovskite cells was found due to both AVA and the protection by the all-inorganic scaffold. These cells achieved a PCE of 14.4% in the present work.
