Microstrain in PSCs is currently a significant factor responsible for the device's instability. Strain-induced ion migration is widely believed to accelerate perovskite degradation even when external stimuli are excluded.Undoubtedly, it is imperative to study strain to enhance the stability of PSCs. This paper reviews recent developments to understand strain's origin and effect mechanisms on performance of PSCs, including ion migration,failure behavior, defect formation, and its effect on photoelectric properties, stability, and reliability.Additionally, several well-known strain management strategies are systematically introduced based on the strain effect mechanism and strain engineering on the film, providing more clues for further preparation with increased stability. The manipulation of external physical strain applied from films to entire devices has been extensively studied. Furthermore, recommendations for future research directions and chemical approaches have been provided. It is emphasized that strain engineering plays a crucial role in improving the efficiency and longevity of PSCs. Tensile strain causes rapid degradation, while moderate compressive strain and external strain control could improve properties and stability. Efforts should focus on controlling compressive strain to mitigate residual tensile strain and introducing it in a controlled manner. Future research endeavors may focus on exploring these pathways to improve the efficiency and lifespan of PSCs.展开更多

文摘Achieving high-quality perovskite films without surface defects is regarded as a crucial target for the development of durable high-performance perovskite solar cells.Additive engineering is commonly employed to simultaneously control the growth of perovskite crystals and passivate defects.Here,4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic anhydride(4-TBA)composed of benzene rings functionalized with carbonyl and trifluoromethyl groups was used as an example additive to study the characteristics of additives used for producing high-quality perovskites and controlling their surface properties.The interaction between4-TBA and perovskite precursor materials was investigated using density functional theory(DFT)simulations.The electron-rich carbonyl group efficiently passivated the under-coordinated lead-ion defects.Additionally,hydrogen bonding between trifluoromethyl and organic cations prevents the generation of cation vacancies.Because of its intrinsic hydrophobicity,the trifluoromethyl group simultaneously improves the moisture and heat stability of the film.4-TBA serves as a universal modifier for various perovskite compositions.The power conversion efficiency(PCE)of inverted perovskite solar cells(PSCs)based on methylammonium(MA)with 4-TBA was improved from 16.15%to 19.28%.Similarly,the PCE of inverted PSCs based on a cesium formamidinium MA(CsFAMA)perovskite film increased from20.72%to 23.58%,upon addition of 4-TBA.Furthermore,the moisture and thermal stability of 4-TBAtreated films and devices was significantly enhanced,along with prolonged device performance.Our work provides guidance on selecting the structure and functional groups that are essential for surface defect passivation and the production of high-quality perovskites.

文摘Fullerene derivatives[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester(PC_(61)BM)has been routinely used as the electron transport layer(ETL)in perovskite solar cells due to its suitable energy levels and good solution processability.However,its electron mobility and conductivity still need to be further enhanced for constructing high performance perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Herein,by doping the PC_(61)BM with a p-type polymer PM6 and n-type molecule ITIC,efficient wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells with improved efficiency and operational/storage stability are obtained.Further spectroscopy and electric measurements indicate PM6 and ITIC can both passivate defects at the perovskite/ETL interface,meanwhile ITIC can elevate the Fermi level of PC_(61)BM to enhance conductivity and PM6 can improve the photo-induced electron mobility of the ETL,facilitating charge extraction and reducing charge recombination.As the results,Cs_(0.17)FA_(0.83)Pb(I_(0.83)Br_(0.17))_(3)wide-bandgap PSCs with PM6:PC_(61)BM:ITIC as the ETL demonstrates a superior efficiency of 22.95%,compared to 20.89%of the PC_(61)BM assisted device.

文摘Hybrid organic–inorganic lead halide perovskites have emerged as a promising material for high-efficiency solar cells,yet challenges related to crystallization and defects limit their performance and stability.This study investigates the use of perovskite quantum dots(QDs)as crystallization seeds to enhance the quality of FAPbI_(3)perovskite films and improve the performance of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).We demonstrate that CsPbI_(3)and CsPbBr_(3)QDs effectively guide the crystallization process,leading to the formation of larger crystals with preferential orientations,particularly the(001)and(002)planes,which are associated with reduced defect densities.This seedmediated growth strategy resulted in PSCs with power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)of 24.75%and 24.11%,respectively,compared to the baseline efficiency of 22.05%for control devices.Furthermore,devices incorporating QD-treated perovskite films exhibited remarkable stability,maintaining over 80%of their initial PCE after 1000 h of simulated sunlight exposure,a significant improvement over the control.Detailed optoelectronic characterization revealed reduced non-radiative recombination and enhanced charge transport in QD-treated devices.These findings highlight the potential of QDs as a powerful tool to improve perovskite crystallization,facet orientation,and overall device performance,offering a promising route to enhance both efficiency and stability in PSCs.

文摘Widely used spin-coated nickle oxide (NiOx) based perovskite solar cells often suffer from severe interfacial reactions between the NiOxand adjacent perovskite layers due to surface defect states,which inherently impair device performance in a long-term view,even with surface molecule passivation.In this study,we developed high-quality magnetron-sputtered NiOxthin films through detailed process optimization,and compared systematically sputtered and spin-coated NiOxthin film surfaces from materials to devices.These sputtered NiOxfilms exhibit improved crystallinity,smoother surfaces,and significantly reduced Ni3+or Ni vacancies compared to their spin-coated counterparts.Consequently,the interface between the perovskite and sputtered NiOxfilm shows a substantially reduced density of defect states.Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) fabricated with our optimally sputtered NiOxfilms achieved a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of up to 19.93%and demonstrated enhanced stability,maintaining 86.2% efficiency during 500 h of maximum power point tracking under one standard sun illumination.Moreover,with the surface modification using (4-(2,7-dibromo-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9H)-yl)butyl)p hosphonic acid (DMAcPA),the device PCE was further promoted to 23.07%,which is the highest value reported for sputtered NiOxbased PSCs so far.

文摘Finding ways to produce dense and smooth perovskite films with negligible defects is vital for achieving high-efficiency perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Herein,we aim to enhance the quality of the perovskite films through the utilization of a multifunctional additive in the perovskite anti-solvent,a strategy referred to as anti-solvent additive engineering.Specifically,we introduce ortho-substituted-4′-(4,4″-di-tertbutyl-1,1′:3′,1″-terphenyl)-graphdiyne(o-TB-GDY)as an AAE additive,characterized by its sp/sp^2-cohybridized and highlyπ-conjugated structure,into the anti-solvent.o-TB-GDY not only significantly passivates undercoordinated lead defects(through potent coordination originating from specific highπ–electron conjugation),but also serves as nucleation seeds to effectively enhance the nucleation and growth of perovskite crystals.This markedly reduces defects and non-radiative recombination,thereby increasing the power conversion efficiency(PCE)to 25.62%(certified as 25.01%).Meanwhile,the PSCs exhibit largely enhanced stability,maintaining 92.6%of their initial PCEs after 500 h continuous 1-sun illumination at~23°C in a nitrogen-filled glove box.

文摘Organic additives with multiple functional groups have shown great promise in improving the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells.The functional groups can passivate undercoordinated ions to reduce nonradiative recombination losses.However,how these groups synergistically affect the enhancement beyond passivation is still unclear.Specifically,isomeric molecules with different substitution patterns or molecular shapes remain elusive in designing new organic additives.Here,we report two isomeric carbazolyl bisphosphonate additives,2,7-Cz BP and 3,6-Cz BP.The isomerism effect on passivation and charge transport process was studied.The two molecules have similar passivation effects through multiple interactions,e.g.,P=O···Pb,P=O···H–N and N–H···I.2,7-CzBP can further bridge the perovskite crystallites to facilitates charge transport.Power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)of 25.88%and 21.04%were achieved for 0.09 cm^(2)devices and 14 cm^(2)modules after 2,7-Cz BP treatment,respectively.The devices exhibited enhanced operational stability maintaining 95%of initial PCE after 1000 h of continuous maximum power point tracking.This study of isomerism effect hints at the importance of tuning substitution positions and molecular shapes for organic additives,which paves the way for innovation of next-generation multifunctional aromatic additives.

文摘Photovoltaic metal halide perovskite solar cells(PSCs) convert light to electricity more efficiently than crystalline silicon cells, and the cost of materials used to make them is lower than that of silicon cells.Conversion efficiency is not a core issue affecting the application of perovskite solar cells in special scenarios.At present, stability is the major technical encounters that hinders its further commercial development. Microstrain in PSCs is currently a significant factor responsible for the device's instability. Strain-induced ion migration is widely believed to accelerate perovskite degradation even when external stimuli are excluded.Undoubtedly, it is imperative to study strain to enhance the stability of PSCs. This paper reviews recent developments to understand strain's origin and effect mechanisms on performance of PSCs, including ion migration,failure behavior, defect formation, and its effect on photoelectric properties, stability, and reliability.Additionally, several well-known strain management strategies are systematically introduced based on the strain effect mechanism and strain engineering on the film, providing more clues for further preparation with increased stability. The manipulation of external physical strain applied from films to entire devices has been extensively studied. Furthermore, recommendations for future research directions and chemical approaches have been provided. It is emphasized that strain engineering plays a crucial role in improving the efficiency and longevity of PSCs. Tensile strain causes rapid degradation, while moderate compressive strain and external strain control could improve properties and stability. Efforts should focus on controlling compressive strain to mitigate residual tensile strain and introducing it in a controlled manner. Future research endeavors may focus on exploring these pathways to improve the efficiency and lifespan of PSCs.

文摘All-perovskite tandem solar cells have the potential to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single junction solar cells by reducing thermalization losses.However,the challenges encompass the oxidation of Sn^(2+)to Sn^(4+)and uncontrolled crystallization kinetics in Sn-Pb perovskites,leading to nonradiative recombination and compositional heterogeneity to decrease photovoltaic efficiency and operational stability.Herein,we introduced an ionic liquid additive,1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium iodide (EMIMI) into Sn-Pb perovskite precursor to form low-dimensional Sn-rich/pure-Sn perovskites at grain boundaries,which mitigates oxidation of Sn^(2+)to Sn^(4+)and regulates the film-forming dynamics of Sn/Pb-based perovskite films.The optimized single-junction Sn-Pb perovskite devices incorporating EMIMI achieved a high efficiency of 22.87%.Furthermore,combined with wide-bandgap perovskite sub-cells in tandem device,we demonstrate 2-terminal all-perovskite tandem solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 28.34%,achieving improved operational stability.

文摘Carbon-based perovskite solar cells(C-PSCs)exhibit notable stability and durability.However,the power conversion efficiency(PCE)is significantly hindered by energy level mismatches,which result in interfacial charge transport barriers at the electrode-related interfaces.Herein,we report a back electrode that utilizes atomically dispersed metallic cobalt(Co)in carbon nanosheets(Co_1/CN)to adjust the interfacial energy levels.The electrons in the d-orbitals of Co atoms disrupt the electronic symmetry of the carbon nanosheets(CN),inducing a redistribution of the electronic density of states that leads to a downward shift in the Fermi level and a significantly reduced interfacial energy barrier.As a result,the C-PSCs using Co1/CN as back electrodes achieve a notable PCE of 22.61%with exceptional long-term stability,maintaining 94.4%of their initial efficiency after 1000 h of continuous illumination without encapsulation.This work provides a promising universal method to regulate the energy level of carbon electrodes for C-PSCs and paves the way for more efficient,stable,and scalable solar technologies toward commercialization.

文摘Flexible perovskite solar cells(fPSCs)have demonstrated commercial viability because of their promising lightness,flexibility,and low-cost advantages.However,in most applications,the fPSCs suffer from constant external stress,such as being kept at a convex bending state,imposing external stress on the brittle perovskite films and causing the fPSCs long-term stability problems.Overcoming these issues is vital.Herein,we propose an effective way to enhance the stability of the fPSCs under convex bending by modulating the residual stress of perovskite film for the first time.Specifically,we have carefully designed a synergistic strain engineering to toughen the perovskite films by introducing 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate,citric acid,and a novel cross-linker,5-(1,2-dithiolan-3-yl)pentanoate into perovskite films simultaneously.Besides passivating the perovskite films,the multiple additives effectively convert the residual stress within the perovskite films from tensile to compressive type to alleviate the detrimental impact of bending on the flexible perovskite films.As a result,the optimal efficiencies of triple-additive modified fPSCs have achieved 22.19%(0.06 cm^(2))and 19.44%(1.02 cm^(2)).More importantly,the strategy could significantly improve the stability of the perovskite films and fPSCs at a convex bending state.Our approach is inductive for the future practical field applications of high-performance fPSCs.

文摘2,2',7,7'-Tetrakis(N,N-di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino)-9,9'-spirobifluorene(Spiro)is an essential hole-transport material used in perovskite solar cells(PSCs).However,the redox reaction of Spiro and its impact at the interface with the metal electrode are not yet fully understood.In this study,we introduced a crystalline additive(CA)to regulate the redox process of Spiro and its interface with an Ag electrode.Our findings indicate that CA functions as a molecular scaffold,improving the crystallinity and stability of radicals in Spiro throughout the entire redox reaction.This enhancement increases the hole mobility of Spiro and strengthens the internal electric field,thereby improving hole extraction and transport efficiency at both interfaces.Moreover,the optimized redox reaction of Spiro reduces energy loss at the Ag electrode,significantly boosting the power conversion efficiency to 25.21%.Furthermore,CA mitigates the aggregation of lithium salt and enhances the stability of the device.Our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of hole-transport mechanisms of Spiro and emphasize the importance of reducing energy loss at the Spiro/Ag electrode interface in PSCs.

文摘Formamidinium lead bromide(FAPbBr_(3))perovskite nanocrystals(NCs)are promising for display and lighting due to their ultra-pure green emission.However,the thermal quenching will exacerbate their performance degradation in practical applications,which is a common issue for halide perovskites.Here,we reported the heat-resistant FAPbBr_(3)NCs prepared by a ligand-engineered room-temperature synthesis strategy.An aromatic amine,specificallyβ-phenylethylamine(PEA)or 3-fluorophenylethylamine(3-F-PEA),was incoporated as the short-chain ligand to expedite the crystallization rate and control the size distribution of FAPbBr_(3)NCs.Employing this ligand engineering approach,we synthesized high quality FAPbBr_(3)NCs with uniform grain size and reduced long-chain alkyl ligands,resulting in substantially suppressed thermal quenching and enhanced carrier transportation in the perovskite NCs films.Most notably,more than 90%of the room temperature PL intensity in the 3-F-PEA modified FAPbBr_(3)NCs film was preserved at 380 K.Consequently,we fabricated ultra-pure green EL devices with a room temperature external quantum efficiency(EQE)as high as 21.9%at the luminance of above 1,000 cd m^(-2),and demonstrated less than 10%loss in EQE at 343 K.This study introduces a novel room temperature method to synthesize efficient FAPbBr_(3)NCs with exceptional thermal stability,paving the way for advanced optoelectronic device applications.

文摘The tensile strain in inorganic perovskite films induced by thermal annealing is one of the primary factors contributing to the inefficiency and instability of inorganic perovskite solar cells(IPSCs),which reduces the defect formation energy.Here,a flexible molecule 5-maleimidovaleric acid(5-MVA)was introduced as a strain buffer to release the residual strain of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite.Maleic anhydride and carboxyl groups in 5-MVA interact strongly with the uncoordinated Pb^(2+)through Lewis acid-base reaction,thus tightly“pull”the perovskite lattice.The in-between soft carbon chain increased the structural flexibility of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite materials,which effectively relieved the intrinsic internal strain of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15),resisted the corrosion of external strain,and also reduced the formation of defects such as VIand Pb0.In addition,the introduction of 5-MVA improved crystal quality,passivated residual defects,and narrowed energy level barriers.Eventually,power conversion efficiency(PCE)of NiOxbased inverted IPSCs increased from 19.25%to 20.82%with the open-circuit voltage enhanced from 1.164 V to 1.230 V.The release of strain also improved the stability of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite films and devices.
