Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells with Cesium Acetate-Modified TiO<sub>2</sub> Electron Transport Layer
The
photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is
still below the Shockley–Queisser limit due to the impact of
defects originated from the surface and the bulk of the perovskite.
Hence, it is particularly important to alleviate non-radiative losses
in the solar cell by employing an interface modification strategy.
We implemented TiO2/CsAC as an electron transport layer
to achieve high-performance devices based on diethylammonium bromide
(DABr)-doped MAPbI3. The critical role of cesium acetate
(CsAC) is designed to improve perovskite crystallization and achieve
a high-quality interfacial contact between TiO2 and the
perovskite layer. TiO2/CsAC promotes the shift of Br ions
to form the Br-rich region at the perovskite/HTL interface simultaneously,
which can enhance the extraction of holes and block the diffusion
of electrons. Attributing to the modification of CsAC to TiO2, the performance of DABr-doped MAPbI3 PSC is improved
significantly
