<p>The electron and hole selective contact (SC) play a pivotal role in the performance of perovskite solar cells. In order to separate the interfacial phenomenon from bulk, the influence of charge SC was elucidated, by means of impedance spectroscopy. The specific role played by TiO<sub>2</sub> and <i>Spiro-OMeTAD</i> as electron and hole SC in perovskite solar cells was investigated at short circuit condition at different temperatures. We have probed MAPbI<sub>3</sub> and (FAPbI<sub>3</sub>)<sub>0.85</sub>(MAPbBr<sub>3</sub>)<sub>0.15 </sub>and elucidated parameters such as charge carrier mobility, recombination resistance, time constant and charge carrier kinetics in perovskite layer and at the interface of perovskite/SC. Charge carrier mobility in mixed perovskite was found to be nearly two order of magnitude higher as compared to MAPbI<sub>3</sub>. Moreover, the carrier mobility in devices with only electron SC was found to be higher as compared only hole SC. The charge accumulation at TiO<sub>2</sub>/perovskite/<i>Spiro</i>-OMeTAD interfaces were studied via frequency dependent capacitance, revealing higher charge accumulation at perovskite/S<i>piro</i>-OMeTAD than at TiO<sub>2</sub>/perovskite interface. By performing varying temperature frequency dependent capacitance measurements the distribution of density of state within the bandgap of the perovskites, the emission rate of electrons from the trap states and traps activation energy was determined. </p>

Introduction of the symmetric conjugated side chain to the conjugated backbone of the polymer was found to improve both the light-harvesting ability of the polymer and its charge carrier mobility, apparently by increasing the packing between the polymer chains.

Organic semiconductors with high charge carrier mobilities are crucial for flexible electronic applications. Apart from designing new conjugated frameworks, different strategies have been explored to increase charge carrier mobilities. We report a new and simple approach to enhancing the charge carrier mobility of DPP-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene–conjugated polymer by incorporating an ionic additive, tetramethylammonium iodide, without extra treatments into the polymer. The resulting thin films exhibit a very high hole mobility, which is higher by a factor of 24 than that of thin films without the ionic additive under the same conditions. On the basis of spectroscopic grazing incidence wide-angle x-ray scattering and atomic force microscopy studies as well as theoretical calculations, the remarkable enhancement of charge mobility upon addition of tetramethylammonium iodide is attributed primarily to an inhibition of the torsion of the alkyl side chains by the presence of the ionic species, facilitating a more ordered lamellar packing of the alkyl side chains and interchain π-π interactions.
