研究目的
Investigating the properties and applications of cyclooctatetrathiophene-cored hole transport materials (HTMs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) to achieve high power conversion efficiency (PCE).
研究成果
COTT-1 and COTT-2 exhibit high thermal and electrochemical stability. COTT-2, with methoxy groups, shows enhanced solubility and stronger electron-donating ability, leading to a PCE of 17.7%. Using COTT-1 as an interfacial layer improves the performance of COTT-2-based PSCs to over 19% efficiency, demonstrating the potential of cyclooctatetrathiophene-based HTMs in high-efficiency PSCs.
研究不足
The solubility of COTT-1 in chlorobenzene is poor, affecting film formation and device performance. The HOMO energy level of COTT-2 is deeper than that of Spiro-OMeTAD, leading to energy loss and lower PCE.
