SPS-SPX-2TPA is a cost-effective hole-transport material designed for high efficiency and stability in perovskite solar cells. Perovskite solar cells utilizing SPS-SPX-2TPA exhibit excellent power conversion efficiency and stable photovoltaic performance over extended periods of time.
Hole-transport materials (HTMs) play a critical role in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) for achieving high efficiency and stability. Herein, we have designed and synthesized an HTM named SPS-SPX-2TPA and studied its photovoltaic performance for PSC applications. The molecule SPS-SPX-2TPA consists of pyridyl substitution at para-position attached with a spiro[fluorene-9,9 '-xanthene] (SFX) moiety as a central core unit and finally end capped with an N,N-dimethoxytriphenylamine (TPA) moiety. The synthesized SPS-SPX-2TPA HTM is three times cheaper than the most commonly used Spiro-OMeTAD HTM. Mesoporous PSCs fabricated using SPS-SPX-2TPA as the HTM showed the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 17.39% and 16.22% (device area 0.10 cm(2)) in forward and reverse bias, respectively. Moreover, the SPS-SPX-2TPA-based PSCs showed a stable photovoltaic performance of up to 270 h when measured under light soaking and maintained 95% of their initial PCE even after 600 h when measured under maximum power point tracking conditions with high reproducibility.
