A carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/carbon fiber (Cf) has been prepared and used as a counter electrode (CE) for hole-transport-material-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs). It was found that CNTs/Cf material effectively increased the contact area between pemvskite and carbon layer, correspondingly decreased the charge exchange resistance and enhanced hole extraction ability at pemvskite/CE interface. In addition, hole transfer in CNTs/Cf CE was accelerated due to the existence of highway hole transfer path derived from CNTs/Cf structure, which reduced photoluminescence peak intensity. As a result, the PSC based on CNTs/Cf CE with high-efficiency hole extraction ability and fast hole transfer performance had a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 11.80 % compared with that of CNTs CE (8.93 %) and Cf CE (7.47 %).
