Solar cells are important alternatives to fossil fuels for energy generation in today’s world, where the demand for alternative, renewable sources of energy is increasing. However, solar cells, which are installed outdoors, are susceptible to pollution by environmental factors. A solution to overcome this limitation involves coating solar cell surfaces with functional coatings. In this study, we propose a transmittance control method for a tensioned web in a roll-to-roll, transparent, water-repellent film coating. First, we analyzed the effects of process conditions on the transmittance and contact angle of the transparent water-repellent film during roll-to-roll slot-die coating. It was confirmed that the tension was the most dominant factor, followed by the coating gap. Through the tension control, the transmittance was changed by 3.27%, and the contact angle of the DI water was changed by 17.7°. In addition, it was confirmed that the transmittance was changed by 0.8% and the contact angle of DI water by 3.9° via the coating gap control. Based on these results, a transmittance prediction model was developed according to the tension and coating gap, and was then verified experimentally. Finally, a water-repellent film with a high transmittance of 89.77% was obtained using this model.

We report on metal-organic halide perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 films converted from PbI2 precursors for planar heterojunction perovskite solar cells. PbI2 films as a precursor were deposited by hot-wall method and conventional vacuum evaporation. The conversion to perovskite phase from the PbI2 films were performed by annealing in methyl ammonium iodine (MAI) vapour at 120-150 °C. We confirmed that no residual PbI2 phase can be detected in the converted perovskite films by x-ray diffraction measurements. The surface morphology of the perovskite films was measured by AFM. Roughness Ra of the films is 17.8 nm, which is comparable value to the reported ones. Using the converted perovskite films we fabricated tentative perovskite solar cells with a device architecture of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/Perovskite/C60/Ag. The power conversion efficiencies of the fabricated solar cells from a conventional evaporation and the hot-wall method exhibited 2.22 and 2.33%, respectively.

Incorporating additives into organic halide perovskite solar cells is the typical approach to improve power conversion efficiency. In this paper, a methyl-ammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3, MAPbI3) organic perovskite film was fabricated using a two-step sequential process on top of the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) hole-transporting layer. Experimentally, water and potassium halides (KCl, KBr, and KI) were incorporated into the PbI2 precursor solution. With only 2 vol% water, the cell efficiency was effectively improved. Without water, the addition of all of the three potassium halides unanimously degraded the performance of the solar cells, although the crystallinity was improved. Co-doping with KI and water showed a pronounced improvement in crystallinity and the elimination of carrier traps, yielding a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 13.9%, which was approximately 60% higher than the pristine reference cell. The effect of metal halide and water co-doping in the PbI2 layer on the performance of organic perovskite solar cells was studied. Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies indicated that a PbI2-dimethylformamide-water related adduct was formed upon co-doping. Photoluminescence enhancement was observed due to the co-doping of KI and water, indicating the defect density was reduced. Finally, the co-doping process was recommended for developing high-performance organic halide perovskite solar cells.
