Working Mechanisms

Interdigitated back-contact (IBC) architectures are the best performing technology in crystalline Si (c-Si) photovoltaics (PV). Although single junction perovskite solar cells have now surpassed 23% efficiency, most of the research has mainly focussed on planar and mesostructured architectures. The number of studies involving IBC devices is still limited and the proposed architectures are unfeasible for large scale manufacturing. Here we discuss the importance of IBC solar cells as a powerful tool for investigating the fundamental working mechanisms of perovskite materials. We show a detailed fabrication protocol for IBC perovskite devices that does not involve photolithography and metal evaporation. The interview is available at https://youtu.be/nvuNC29TvOY.

The Stability

Aim & Scope: Metal halide perovskitehave been regarded as promising classes of materials for photovoltaics and optoelectronic devices, owing to the unique characteristics, such as long charge carrier diffusion lengths, precise tunable bandgaps, high light absorption coefficients, and high defect tolerance. Research on perovskite in the fields including photovoltaics, light-emitting diodes, lasers, X-ray imaging, and photodetectors has been gaining increasingly interest over the past years. Up to now, the efficiency of perovskite solar cells has grown from 3.8% in single-junction solar cells in 2009 to more than 25%, catching up the efficiency level of commercial silicon cells. Up to now, the key issues of perovskite photovoltaics and optoelectronic devices have become the stability, performance and large-scale production. This requires optimization of the film morphology, interface, device structure and the fabrication process. A lot work has been done on this issue and has made remarkable progress. We kindly invite you to submit a manuscript(s) for this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

Solar Cell Technology

In recent time, there have been enormous advances in the development of perovskite solar cells in terms of its efficiency, rising from 3.8 percent in 2009 to 23.7 percent in 2018. This took other solar technologies over thirty years of research to accomplish. On the other hand, perovskite proffers a more affordable solution since it is potentially much cheaper to produce and relatively simple to manufacture than silicon solar cells. In spite of this great potential, perovskite solar cell technology is still in the premature stages of commercialization due to a number of concerns. Moreover, like with many new technologies, there is a difference between what works in the laboratory at small-scale and in the factory at large-scale. Thus, looking at perovskites as a material, it has the tendency to be a bit unstable at high temperature and susceptible to moisture and these could cause the decomposition of cells. The question here is: can perovskite outshine silicon solar cel1s in the next 10 years considering the successes so far and the vigorous research that is presently taking place globally?

Abstract. Bathocuproine (BCP) (2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) is a well-known material that is employed as a hole-blocking layer between electron transport layer (ETL) and metal electrode in perovskite solar cells. It has been demonstrated that the use of BCP as a buffer layer between the ETL and the metal electrode in perovskite solar cells is highly beneficial. In literature, BCP is coated using vacuum processing techniques. Vacuum processing techniques require more energy and cost-effective processing conditions. In this work, we used BCP layers processed through wet processing techniques using sol-gel method with different concentrations. We achieved a short circuit current density (Jsc) of 16.1 mA/cm2 and an open circuit voltage (Voc) of 875 mV were acquired and a fill factor (FF) of 0.37 was calculated for perovskite solar cells without a BCP layer leading to a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5.32 % whereas Jsc of 19 mA/cm2, Voc of 990 mV were achieved and a FF of 0.5 was calculated for perovskite solar cells employing BCP layers with concentration of 0.5 mg/ml and spin cast at 4000 rpm, leading to a PCE of 9.4 %. It has been observed that the use of a BCP layer with an optimized concentration led to an improved device performance with an increase of 77 % in PCE in ambient air under high humidity conditions for planar structure perovskite solar cells in the configuration of ITO/NiOx/MAPbI3/PCBM/BCP/Ag.  Resumen. Batocuproina (BCP) (2,9-dimetil-4,7-difenil-1,10-fenantrolina) es un material que se emplea como capa de bloqueo de huecos entre la capa transportadora de electrones (ETL) y el electrodo metálico en celdas solares basados en perovskitas. Se ha demostrado que el uso de BCP como capa amortiguadora entre el ETL y el electrodo metálico en las celdas solares de perovskita es beneficioso. Comúnmente el BCP se recubre mediante técnicas de procesamiento al vacío, las cuales requieren altos costos energéticos. En este trabajo utilizamos capas de BCP procesadas mediante técnicas de procesamiento húmedo utilizando el método sol-gel. Logramos una densidad de corriente de cortocircuito (Jsc) de 16.1 mA / cm2 y un voltaje de circuito abierto (Voc) de 875 mV y se calculó un factor de llenado (FF) de 0.37 para las celdas solares de perovskita sin una capa de BCP lo que conduce a una eficiencia de conversión de energía (PCE) de 5.32%. Para celdas solares de perovskita que emplean capas de BCP con concentración de 0.5 mg/ml y centrifugado a 4000 rpm el valor de Jsc fue de 19 mA / cm2, se lograron Voc de 990 mV y se calculó un FF de 0.5, lo que lleva a un PCE del 9,4%. Se observó que el uso de una capa de BCP con concentración optimizada puede conducir a un rendimiento mejorado del dispositivo con un aumento del 77% en PCE en el aire ambiente, en condiciones de alta humedad, para celdas solares de perovskita de estructura plana en la configuración de ITO / NiOx / MAPbI3 / PCBM / BCP / Ag.
