Efficient inorganic perovskite solar cells made by drop-coating in ambient air

Hanrui Xiao et al.

Summary: An additive-assisted airflow drying (AAD) method is reported to fabricate mixed-halide inorganic perovskite films in ambient air, achieving pinhole-free films with low defect density. CsPbI2.25Br0.75 PSCs show an improved efficiency of 18.49%, the highest for wide-bandgap (>1.8 eV) inorganic PSCs. PSCs made under moderate relative humidity (40-50%) achieve an efficiency of 17.08%. Additionally, CsPbI2Br and CsPbIBr2 PSCs achieve PCEs of 17.39% and 11.54% respectively, among the best for CsPbI2Br and CsPbIBr2 PSCs. This work provides a convenient and efficient method for fabricating efficient inorganic PSCs in ambient air.

Organic iodides in efficient and stable perovskite solar cells: strong surface passivation and interaction

Guanhua Ren et al.

Summary: Surface passivation with organic iodides is crucial for high-performance perovskite solar cells (PSCs), but it often leads to stability degradation due to migration of iodine interstitial (I-i) defects. We found that untreated surface treatment can induce I-i formation and subsequent migration. Cation selection for organic iodides is important, as a strong cation-perovskite surface interaction can suppress I-i migration by increasing the migration energy barrier. Phenylpropylammonium iodide-treated PSCs achieve enhanced efficiency and stability, with a champion efficiency of 24.20% and retaining about 92% of their initial efficiency after 240 hours of continuous illumination.
