“…Many studies on the effect of annealing temperature on film characteristics have been reported (Beshkov et al 1993;Wang et al 2006). Generally with an increase in annealing temperature, structure of the film changes from amorphous to crystalline and grain growth occurs with increase in mobility with temperature.…”

Nanocrystalline SnO 2 thin films were successfully prepared using sol-gel dip coating technique. The starting precursor was used as tin chloride dihydrate (SnCl 2 .2H 2 O), ethanol and glycerin. As the prepared films were fired at 500 o C. These films were characterized using XRD, FE-SEM and TEM to known crystal structure, surface morphology and microstructure property. Elemental composition was studied using energy dispersive spectrophotometer (EDAX). The H 2 gas sensing performance of nanocrystalline SnO 2 thin films were investigated and presented. It was found that the nanocrystalline SnO 2 thin films gives maximum gas response (S= 360) at 75 o C. The sensor shows fast speed of response (T Response = 2 s) and quick recover (T recover = 8 s).

“…Also, incorporating the combustion chemistry in plasma-induced processes reduces the oxide formation time, but the device compatibility is yet unclear . In recent times, rapid thermal annealing (RTA) has also been reported for metal oxide layer formation, which significantly reduces the device processing time, but, due to the nature of the thermal cycling process, the applicability is, therefore, substrate-limited. In a similar route, photonically cured , (i.e., pulsed Xe) and also near-infrared-induced (either continuous or time-modulated) heating has also been demonstrated , to develop the perovskite layer only, which is, however, the least of concern due to its low formation energy.…”

High-throughput fabrication of metal oxide thin films is always a bottleneck for solution-processed perovskite solar cells. Here, we report a rapid photonic curing process, with a well-controlled train of short light pulses, to develop bilayer (colloidal and blocking layer) SnO 2 thin films used as electron transport layers in perovskite ((FA 0.83 MA 0.17 ) 0.95 Cs 0.05 PbI 2.5 Br 0.5 , 1.62 eV band gap) photovoltaic devices (n−i−p architecture) with an optimized efficiency of 21.1% alongside good ambient and operational (MPPT) stability. The strong dependency of the photonic curing pulse parameters on device properties is investigated, and we established a corroboration between the chemical properties of the as-cured SnO 2 and the optoelectronic performance of the devices and the interface quality. Furthermore, we show that the futile removal of the chloride species in photonically cured SnO 2 is an added advantage against the thermally annealed ones regarding charge transport and lower interfacial recombination. Furthermore, the process is impeccably scaled up to demonstrate a series-connected minimodule (16 cm 2 ) with 18.2% efficiency.
