Self-powered and flexible perovskite photodiode/solar cell bifunctional devices with MoS2 hole transport layer
摘要： Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are highly attractive for the use in optoelectronic devices, but their instabilities should be solved before the practical applications. As one of the solutions, it is important to find a transport layer that can improve the stability and durability of the devices. Here, we first employ MoS2 for a hole transport layer (HTL) in high-performance flexible p-i-n-type perovskite photodiode (PD)/solar cell bifunctional devices (PPSBs) with co-doped graphene transparent conductive electrodes. The current of the PPSB increases by up to 106 times by illumination even at 0 V, meaning “self-powered”. The PPSB exhibits high responsivity and on/off ratio in a broad spectral range of ultraviolet to visible light at a PD mode and good photovoltaic properties at a solar cell mode. The photoresponse shows only 38 % degradation during 30 days, and the photo-stability is almost perfect under continuous light soaking for 100 h. Flexible PPSB exhibits excellent mechanical properties by maintaining ~57 % of its initial photocurrent even after 3000 bending cycles at a curvature radius of 4 mm. These results suggest that MoS2 films can be successfully used as a HTL in perovskites-based rigid/flexible optoelectronic devices.

Modification of NiO <sub/>x</sub> hole transport layer for acceleration of charge extraction in inverted perovskite solar cells
摘要： The modification of the inorganic hole transport layer has been an efficient method for optimizing the performance of inverted perovskite solar cells. In this work, we propose a facile modification of a compact NiOx film with NiOx nanoparticles and explore the effects on the charge carrier dynamic behaviors and photovoltaic performance of inverted perovskite devices. The modification of the NiOx hole transport layer can not only enlarge the surface area and infiltration ability, but also adjust the valence band maximum to well match that of perovskite. The photoluminescence results confirm the acceleration of the charge separation and transport at the NiOx/perovskite interface. The corresponding device possesses better photovoltaic parameters than the device based on control NiOx films. Moreover, the charge carrier transport/recombination dynamics are further systematically investigated by the measurements of time-resolved photoluminescence, transient photovoltage and transient photocurrent. Consequently, the results demonstrate that proper modification of NiOx can significantly enlarge interface area and improve the hole extraction capacity, thus efficiently promoting charge separation and inhibiting charge recombination, which leads to the enhancement of the device performances.

Photoactivity improvement of TiO2 electrodes by thin hole transport layers of reduced graphene oxide
摘要： Nanostructured TiO2 and graphene-based materials constitute components of actual interest in devices related to solar energy conversion and storage. In this work, we show that a thin layer of electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ECrGO), covering nanostructured TiO2 photoelectrodes, can significantly improve the photoactivity. In order to understand the working principle, ECrGO/TiO2 photoelectrodes with different ECrGO thicknesses were prepared and studied by a set of photoelectrochemical measurements. Methanol in alkaline conditions was employed as effective hole acceptor probe to elucidate the electronic phenomena in the electrode layers and interfaces. These studies underline the hole accepting properties of ECrGO and reveal the formation of a p-n junction at the interface between ECrGO and TiO2. It is shown for the first time that the resulting space charge region of about 10 nm defines the operational functionality of the ECrGO layer. Films thinner than the space charge region act as hole transport layer (HTL), which efficiently transfers holes to the liquid interface thus leading to enhanced photoactivity. Thicker films however act as hole blocking layer (HBL), resulting in a systematic decrease of the photoactivity. The finding of a thickness dependent threshold value for the operation of ECrGO as HTL and HBL is of general interest for the fabrication of optoelectronic devices with improved performance.

Modifying the nanostructures of PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX composite hole transport layers for highly efficient polymer solar cells
摘要： Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides MXene, typically represented by Ti3C2TX, have shown great promise in optoelectronic devices due to their metallic electrical conductivity, large surface area, superior hydrophilicity and excellent transparency. Herein, to improve the conductivity of polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) film, we incorporate solution-processable 2D Ti3C2Tx nanosheets into PEDOT:PSS to fabricate PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX composite layers, and polymer solar cells (PSCs) with PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX composite films as hole transport layers (HTLs) are fabricated for the first time. The nanostructures and the corresponding hole injection properties of PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX composite layers are systematically evaluated. Based on the non-fullerene PBDB-T:ITIC system, a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 11.02% is obtained for the device with PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX as HTL, which is improved by 13.5% than that of the control device with pure PEDOT:PSS as HTL (9.72%). When using the PM6:Y6 system as the active layer, the PCE of the device based on PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX is improved to 14.55% from 13.10% for the PEDOT:PSS reference device. 2D Ti3C2TX nanoflakes with higher conductivity constructing additional charge transfer pathways between the PEDOT nanocrystals and inducing conformational transition of PEDOT from a coil to a liner/expanded-coil structure, leading to the conductivity and device performance improvement. Interestingly, PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX based devices also exhibit enhanced long-term stability than PEDOT:PSS based device. These results show that PEDOT:PSS/Ti3C2TX composite film has a promising prospect in high efficiency organic optoelectronics.

Tailored PEDOT:PSS hole transport layer for higher performance in perovskite solar cells: Enhancement of electrical and optical properties with improved morphology
摘要： Precise control over the charge carrier dynamics throughout the device can result in outstanding performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is the most actively studied hole transport material in p-i-n structured PSCs. However, charge transport in the PEDOT:PSS is limited and ine?cient because of its low conductivity with the presence of the weak ionic conductor PSS. In addition, morphology of the underlying PEDOT:PSS layer in PSCs plays a crucial role in determining the optoelectronic quality of the active perovskite absorber layer. This work is focused on realization of a non-wetting conductive surface of hole transport layer suitable for the growth of larger perovskite crystalline domains. This is accomplished by employing a facile solvent-engineered (ethylene glycol and methanol) approach resulting in removal of the predominant PSS in PEDOT:PSS. The consequence of acquiring larger perovskite crystalline domains was observed in the charge carrier dynamics studies, with the achievement of higher charge carrier lifetime, lower charge transport time and lower transfer impedance in the solvent-engineered PEDOT:PSS-based PSCs. Use of this solvent-engineered treatment for the fabrication of MAPbI 3 PSCs greatly increased the device stability witnessing a power conversion e?ciency of 18.18%, which corresponds to ～37% improvement compared to the untreated PEDOT:PSS based devices.

Thermal Degradation Related to the PEDOT:PSS Hole Transport Layer and Back Electrode of the Flexible Inverted Organic Photovoltaic Module
摘要： The hole transport layer (HTL) and back electrode play a significant role in the stability of the flexible organic photovoltaic (OPV) module. In particular, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), a widely used hole transport material, is known to be associated with many degrading factors in the OPV field. This study highlights the impact of the PEDOT:PSS layer on thermal stability using a thermal accelerating test of flexible OPV modules with inverted structures of indium tin oxide/ZnO/photoactive layer/PEDOT:PSS/Ag. The results confirm that thermal degradation of the OPV devices depends on heat temperature, in which the OPV performance degrades by a notable decrease in the open-circuit voltage (Voc) as the temperature increases from 65 °C to 85 °C. Moreover, the stability of the Voc is enhanced when the PEDOT:PSS is thicker and contains polar solvent DMSO as an additive, suggesting that the thermal degradation can correlate with the properties of the PEDOT:PSS layer. In addition, microscope images of the active layers show that the surface damage is attributed to a residual solvent of printed Ag electrode, thereby resulting in a thermally-induced drop in the short circuit current density (Jsc). More detailed descriptions are presented in this paper, and the results are expected to offer comprehensive understanding of the thermal degradation mechanism of OPV module.

Novel CuAlO2/polyaniline hole transport layer for industrial production of perovskite solar cells
摘要： Here, we report the application of a CuAlO2/polyaniline (PANI) film, prepared using a large-area-compatible electrospray process, as a hole transport layer in a perovskite solar cell. The synergistic combination of CuAlO2 and PANI results in enhanced hole extraction, a smoother perovskite/hole transport layer interface, and an 80% enhancement in power conversion efficiency. The results reveal that CuAlO2/PANI film has potential as a low-cost, scalable hole transport layer for perovskite solar cells.

Thermal oxidation of sputtered nickel nano-film as hole transport layer for high performance perovskite solar cells
摘要： The effect of rapid oxidation temperature on the sputtered nickel (Ni) films to act as a hole transport layer (HTL) for perovskite solar cell (PSCs) was investigated. A nano-sputtered Ni film with a thickness about 100 nm was oxidized at a range of different oxidation temperatures between 350 and 650 °C to work as HTL in an inverted p–i–n configuration. DC Hall measurement in van der Pauw configuration and photoluminescence spectroscopy were used to measure the charge’s mobility and extraction of nickel oxide (NiO) films. The behaviour of the carrier concentration measurements of NiO layers at different oxidation temperatures showed that the Ni layer oxidized at 450 °C had the highest carrier concentration among the other samples. The performance measurements of the fabricated PSCs showed that the nickel oxide hole-transporting layer which has been oxidized at the optimum oxidation temperature of 450 °C has the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 12.05%. Moreover, the characteristic parameters of the optimum cell such as the open-circuit voltage (VOC), short-circuit current density (JSC) and fill factor (FF) were 0.92 V, 19.80 mA/cm2 and 0.331, respectively.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Bifacial CdS/CdTe Solar Cell using Transparent Barium Copper Sulfide as a Hole Transport Layer
摘要： We report the properties of earth-abundant p-type transparent BaCu4S3 (BCS) thin films deposited by solution-based method. Our films of 100 nm thickness show transparency > 70% over the visible and near-infrared regions. We study the bifacial photovoltaic performance of CdTe solar cells using BCS as a hole transport layer. The BCS deposition etches the CdTe to leave a Te rich surface which can help to reduce the barrier height. Our best device, completed with ITO on the BCS, when illuminated from the glass side illumination (? = 12.3 %) shows improved performance relative to our standard Cu/Au back contact, with increased Voc and FF. For film side illumination, Jsc is low and (? reaches just 1%). Once optimized, this earth-abundant transparent BCS could serve as an effective, inexpensive, low-toxicity back contact layer for bifacial CdTe solar cell.

Low Temperature Processed Highly Efficient Hole-Transport-Layer Free Carbon-based Planar Perovskite Solar Cells with SnO2 Quantum Dot Electron-Transport-Layer
摘要： The use of expensive hole transport layer (HTL) and back contact along with the stability issue of perovskite solar cells have been a detrimental factor when it comes to commercialization of the technology. In addition, high-temperature and long annealing time processed electron transport layers (ETLs, e.g., TiO2) prevents the flexible solar cell application in most polymer substrate. Herein, we opted for HTL-free carbon electrodes owing to their low-cost production and superior stability in air, compared to their noble metal counterparts. In this work, we fabricate planar perovskite solar cells using low-temperature solution processed SnO2 quantum dots (QDs) as ETL, which offers significant advantages over high temperature processed ETLs due to its excellent electron extraction and hole blocking ability. In addition, by integrating a low cost and stable carbon electrode, an impressive energy conversion efficiency of 13.64% with a device architecture glass/In doped SnO2/QD-SnO2/Perovskite/Carbon under 1 sun illumination at ambient conditions have been achieved. This work paves the way to achieve fully low-temperature processed printable perovskite solar cells (PSCs) at an affordable cost by integrating the QD SnO2 ETL and Carbon electrode.
