Yuanjia Ding et al.

Summary: Among inorganic perovskites, CsPbI2Br shows great potential for single-junction perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and perovskite/organic tandem solar cells (TSCs) due to its intrinsic thermal stability, suitable bandgap, and superior phase-stability. This study demonstrates that using PTQ10 as a hole transport layer (HTL) for PSCs and an inter-connecting layer (ICL) for TSCs can significantly improve the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of CsPbI2Br-based devices. The PTQ10 HTL exhibits better energy level matching with CsPbI2Br and can passivate the perovskite surface, leading to enhanced performance in both PSCs and TSCs.

Rational Mutual Interactions in Ternary Systems Enable High-Performance Organic Solar Cells

Huanxiang Jiang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the roles of two acceptors with different crystallinity, LA1 and LA9, in ternary organic solar cells. It is found that LA9, with higher crystallinity, tends to form large self-aggregates, leading to decreased device performance compared to LA1. Both acceptors show improved device performance when incorporated into the binary host compound, with the appropriate interactions of LA9 inducing ordered crystallinity and better compatibility with the host acceptor.
