Influence of hole transport layers on internal absorption, charge recombination and collection in HC(NH2)2PbI3 perovskite solar cells

J. Mater. Chem. A, 2018, 6,7922-7932
DOI: 10.1039/C8TA01617H, Paper

The internal absorption, charge recombination and collection in HC(NH2)2PbI3 (FAPbI3) perovskite solar cells with P3HT and spiro-OMeTAD as the HTL are investigated. The results show that the HTL can affect the internal absorption spectra of the perovskite layers, and spiro-OMeTAD HTL is beneficial for reducing the recombination and enhancing the charge collection in PeSCs.

Strong addition effect of n-type polymer with mid-energy level in polymer:fullerene solar cells with power conversion efficiency exceeding 10%

J. Mater. Chem. A, 2018, 6,7480-7487
DOI: 10.1039/C8TA00147B, Paper
Hyemi Han, Jooyeok Seo, Myeonghun Song, Hwajeong Kim, Youngkyoo Kim
The efficiency of inverted-type polymer:fullerene solar cells is greatly enhanced up to >10% by adding only 0.5 wt% of n-type conjugated polymer (THBT-ht) as a mid-energy level additive due to the efficient cascade energy transfer process in the bulk heterojunction layers with finer nanoscale morphology.
