“…The mixture underwent continuous stirring and for a further two minutes after addition of the precursor. Finally, TiO2 solution was prepared [3,22,29]. Thin film of TiO2 was spin-coated using a standard photoresist spinner [Model: 10 MLH Plus, REMI make] at 2000 rpm for 3 minutes on the FTO glass slide which was pre-cleaned by detergent solution, water and ethanol in an ultrasonic bath.…”

“…Aftermath, the solution was concentrated to saturation and cooled down to room temperature. Thus, Perovskite n-propyl ammonium lead chloride was prepared [3,22,29]. Finally, fabricated Perovskite material was spin coated at 2500 rpm for 30 sec on the TiO2 layer over the FTO glass.…”

“…Keeping the exponential growth of world population in mind, it is only natural to predict that the demand for energy will only go up [1]. It can never be denied that energy is the key driving force for the advancement in human living standards and hence, in coming years the worldwide energy consumption is expected to be double [2,3]. Since 1991, Solar Cells have received much attention as a prime example of next generation photovoltaic devices [4][5][6][7][8].…”

“…A lot of working systems have been generated by using perovskite material methyl ammonium lead chloride as the basic unit of solar cell [33][34][35]. In one [3] of our previous works, we have used ethyl ammonium lead chloride effectively as the basic unit of perovskite solar cell. But there is no notable evidence of making solar cell using the perovskite material n-propyl ammonium lead chloride (n-C3H7NH3PbCl3).…”

In a world where conventional sources of energy are fast depleting, the quest for alternative energy sources may hold the key for the survival of humanity. In the present work, emphasis has been given to the idea of producing energy from perovskite based solar cells. In order to bring this idea into fruition, a unique and novel nano structured perovskite material n-propyl ammonium lead chloride (C3H7NH3+PbCl3⁻) was prepared through a unique co-precipitation route using n-propyl amine (n-C3H7NH2) and hydrochloric acid as the starting precursors with aqueous solution of Pb(CH3COO)23H2O. Finally acetic acid was added to the solution and this solution was allowed to concentrate and then gradually cooled down to room temperature. After math, the synthesized material was spin-coated on TiO2 film to fabricate the solar cell. The device was then undergone systematic analysis using XRD, SEM, UV and Photo Conversion to get a transparent idea regarding its structural, electrical and optical properties. When experimentally applied, this perovskite-based solar cell has shown energy conversion efficiency (η) of around 6.01 % which is noticeably good. Thus it can be concluded that this material is promising for fabrication of vastly efficient solar cells. This technology can be tried in large scale as an alternative of conventional energy in the near future.

“…There also exists research and development of devices with ethylammonium (EA) added to perovskites [22][23][24][25][26]. EA has a larger ionic radius (2.74 Å) than that of MA (2.17 Å), and the addition of EA can be expected to improve stability from the viewpoint of calculations [25,27] and tolerance factor [1].…”

Photovoltaic characteristics of solar cell devices in which ethylammonium (EA) and formamidinium (FA) were added to CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite photoactive layers were investigated. The thin films for the devices were deposited by an ordinary spin-coating technique in ambient air, and the X-ray diffraction analysis revealed changes of the lattice constants, crystallite sizes and crystal orientations. By adding FA and EA, surface defects of the perovskite layer decreased, and the photoelectric parameters were improved. In addition, the highly (100) crystal orientations and device stabilities were improved by the EA and FA addition.
