This review introduces the advantages of quantum dot materials in improving the performance of perovskite solar cells, including nano-size effect, multiple-exciton generation, phase stability, and hysteresis suppression. The role of QDs in enhancing device performance is clarified through band engineering, tunable surface chemistry, and compositional engineering, as well as their contribution to environmentally friendly devices. Ongoing challenges and the future prospects of PSCs with QDs are also discussed.
Quantum dot (QD) materials can provide tremendous benefits resulting from quantum confinement effect to photovoltaic devices such as perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this review, attractive characteristics of QDs are introduced from the point of view of nano-size effect, multiple-exciton generation, phase stability and hysteresis suppression. The role of QDs in improving device performance is elucidated on the basis of band engineering, tunable surface chemistry and compositional engineering. In addition, the contribution of QDs to environmentfriendly devices is discussed. Finally, we discuss ongoing challenges and offer the perspectives on future advancement of PSCs with QDs.
