研究目的
To address the corrosion of perovskite films caused by acetonitrile (ACN) when used as a solvent to dissolve bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide lithium salt (LiTFSI) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by exploring alternative solvents with smaller polarity, such as isopropanol (IPA), to enhance the performance and stability of PSCs.
研究成果
Replacing ACN with IPA as a solvent for LiTFSI in PSCs mitigates the corrosion of perovskite films, reduces defects and nonradiative recombination, and enhances device performance and stability. The IPA-spiro device achieved a champion PCE of 19.43%, demonstrating the effectiveness of solvent engineering in improving PSC efficiency and durability.
研究不足
The study focuses on the solvent engineering aspect of PSCs and does not explore other potential degradation mechanisms or the long-term stability under various environmental conditions beyond ambient environment testing.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A solvent engineering approach was implemented to find suitable alternatives for ACN to dissolve LiTFSI. Various alcohols with smaller polarity (methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol) were tested.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Perovskite films were treated with solutions containing LiTFSI dissolved in different solvents (ACN, MT, ET, IPA) to observe their effects on film quality and device performance.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Materials included PbI2, CsI, PbBr2, MABr, FAI, DMF, DMSO, CB, LiTFSI, TBP, ACN, MT, ET, IPA, spiro-OMeTAD, and FTO substrates. Equipment included a solar simulator, FESEM, UV/Vis-NIR spectrometer, fluorescence spectrometer, and electrochemical workstation.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Perovskite films were prepared and treated with different LiTFSI solutions. Devices were fabricated and characterized for performance and stability.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Performance metrics (PCE, VOC, JSC, FF) were measured and compared. Morphological and spectroscopic analyses were conducted to assess film quality and charge carrier dynamics.
