Enhanced photovoltaic performance and stability of perovskite solar cells by interface engineering with poly(4-vinylpyridine) and Cu2ZnSnS4&CNT
摘要: Organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are emerging candidates for next generation photovoltaic devices. In the last decade, PSCs have depicted a rapid development in device performance, meanwhile, the issue of utilizing low-cost, non-toxic materials with chemical stability as well as long term device stabilities are still lacking. To address these issues, an inexpensive, eco-friendly, and environmentally stable nanostructure of the quaternary chalcogenide Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) as an inorganic hole transport material (HTM) has been investigated. Moreover, simultaneously two strategies has been employed to optimize the photovoltaic parameters. First, an interlayer of poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) has been applied between the perovskite and the hole transport layer (HTL). Second, single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is incorporated into the CZTS HTL. While, the latter only result in higher short circuit current density (Jsc) from 18.3 to 20 mA cm?2, by using both of the strategies an increase in open circuit voltage (Voc) from 0.98 to 1.05 V as well as Jsc from 18.3 to 20.5 mA cm?2 has been observed. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the record device reached to 15.2%, fill factor (FF) increased up to 70% and also demonstrated low hysteresis of 2.3%. The formation of hydrophobic CNT webs among the sphere-like CZTS nanostructures and the presence of the PVP polymeric interlayer results in highly stable devices, which retained more than 98% of the initial PCE at room temperature and 40–45% humidity after 30 days. Thus, our results show that the combination of PVP interlayer and CZTS&CNT HTL offer an opportunity for the scalability of PSCs.

Enhanced stability and performance of poly(4-vinylpyridine) modified perovskite solar cell with quaternary semiconductor Cu2MSnS4 (M= Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+) as hole transport materials
摘要: In this work, highly stable and efficient perovskite solar cells (PSCs) in n-i-p configuration has been fabricated. Application of poly (4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) interlayer into the perovskite films via solution based process and quaternary semiconductor Cu2MSnS4 (M = Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+) (CMTS) nanostructure particles as an inorganic hole transporting material (HTM), result in modified perovskite surface and improving the long term stability and the photovoltaic parameters of the PSCs. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the record device with Cu2ZnSnS4(CZTS) HTM and PVP interlayer reaches 13.57%, Voc gains 1.03 V, fill factor (FF) increases up to 70.64% and the device demonstrates low hysteresis (4.14%). Photoluminescence (PL), absorption spectra, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and FESEM images reveal that, the interface between PVP and inorganic CMTS nanostructure particles favorably can reduce non-radiative recombination and enhance Voc. In addition, the presence of hydrophobic PVP interlayer and CMTS nanostructure particles capping with PVP ligands prevent the ingress of the moisture in to the perovskite layer and result in improved stability, where the devices based on CZTS HTM, retain 97% of the initial efficiency after 30 days at room temperature and 35–40% relative humidity.
