High efficient perovskite whispering-gallery solar cells

Inspired by light/sound trapping in whispering-gallery, a light trapping structure mimicking whispering-gallery (WG) structure is constructed on perovskite active layer for antireflection and light harvesting via simply imprinted process with robust microstructure stamp for perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The WG structured perovskite films can achieve light trapping by optical feedback and gradually absorption. The crystallization and size of perovskite are improved by the imprinting process with robust micro-patterned stamp. Moreover, this method can efficiently accelerate electron-hole separation and suppress recombination by extract tentacles of the arrayed column structure. Consequently, the power conversion efficiency of the whispering-gallery structured PSC is improved to 19.80%, which is ca. 29.4% higher than that of the non-imprinted PSC (15.30%).
