研究目的
Investigating the influence of precursor solution properties, fabrication environment, and antisolvent properties on the microstructural evolution of perovskite films for high-efficiency planar perovskite solar cells fabricated under ambient high-humidity conditions.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that a homogenous spherulitic crystallization results in pinhole-free films with similar microstructure irrespective of processing environment. Propyl acetate, an environmentally benign antisolvent, can induce spherulitic crystallization under ambient environment, leading to planar perovskite solar cells with ≈17.78% stabilized power conversion efficiency. The simple precipitation test and in situ crystallization imaging provide a powerful a priori screening of antisolvents for ambient-resilient processing of PSCs.
研究不足
The study focuses on the one-step fabrication method for planar perovskite solar cells, which is highly sensitive to defects such as pinholes in the film. The impact of ambient moisture during fabrication is complex and not fully understood due to the myriad of fabrication methods, materials, and device structures used for PSCs.
