Inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) using a Cu:NiOx hole transporting layer (HTL) often exhibit stability issues and in some cases J/V hysteresis. In this work, we developed a b{eta}-alanine surface treatment process on Cu:NiOx HTL that provides J/V hysteresis-free, highly efficient, and thermally stable inverted PSCs. The improved device performance due to b{eta}-alanine-treated Cu:NiOx HTL is attributed to the formation of an intimate Cu:NiOx/perovskite interface and reduced charge trap density in the bulk perovskite active layer. The b{eta}-alanine surface treatment process on Cu:NiOx HTL eliminates major thermal degradation mechanisms, providing 40 times increased lifetime performance under accelerated heat lifetime conditions. By using the proposed surface treatment, we report optimized devices with high power conversion efficiency (PCE) (up to 15.51%) and up to 1000 h lifetime under accelerated heat lifetime conditions (60 C, N2).

Fundamental electronic processes such as charge-carrier transport and recombination play a critical role in determining the efficiency of hybrid perovskite solar cells. The presence of mobile ions complicates the development of a clear understanding
of these processes as the ions may introduce exceptional phenomena such as hysteresis or giant dielectric constants. As a result, the electronic landscape, including its interaction with mobile ions, is difficult to access both experimentally and analytically. To address this challenge, we applied a series of small perturbation techniques including impedance spectroscopy (IS), intensity-modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS) and intensity-modulated photovoltage spectroscopy (IMVS) to planar $mathrm{MAPbI_3}$ perovskite solar cells. Our measurements indicate that both electronic as well as ionic responses can be observed in all three methods and assigned by literature comparison. The results reveal that the dominant charge-carrier loss mechanism is surface recombination by limitation of the quasi-Fermi level splitting. The interaction between mobile ions and the electronic charge carriers leads to a shift of the apparent diode ideality factor from 0.74 to 1.64 for increasing illumination intensity, despite the recombination mechanism remaining unchanged.
We explore the degradation behaviour under continuous illumination and direct oxygen exposure of inverted unencapsulated formamidinium(FA)0.83Cs0.17Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3, CH3NH3PbI3, and CH3NH3PbI3-xClx perovskite solar cells. We continuously test the devic
es in-situ and in-operando with current-voltage sweeps, transient photocurrent, and transient photovoltage measurements, and find that degradation in the CH3NH3PbI3-xClx solar cells due to oxygen exposure occurs over shorter timescales than FA0.83Cs0.17Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3 mixed-cation devices. We attribute these oxygen-induced losses in the power conversion efficiencies to the formation of electron traps within the perovskite photoactive layer. Our results highlight that the formamidinium-caesium mixed-cation perovskites are much less sensitive to oxygen-induced degradation than the methylammonium-based perovskite cells, and that further improvements in perovskite solar cell stability should focus on the mitigation of trap generation during ageing.
Due to the photo-instability and hysteresis of TiO$_2$ electron transport layer (ETL) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs), novel electron transport materials are highly demanded. Here, we show ideal band alignment between La-doped BaSnO$_3$ (LBSO) and m
ethyl ammonium (MA) lead iodide perovskite (MAPbI$_3$). The CH$_3$NH$_3$PbI$_3$/La$_x$Ba$_{(1-x)}$SnO$_3$ interface forms a stable all-perovskite heterostructure. The selective band alignment is manipulated with band gap renormalization by La-doping on the Ba site. LBSO shows high mobility, photo-stability, and structural stability, promising the next generation ETL materials.
Perovskite semiconductors have demonstrated outstanding external luminescence quantum yields, enabling high power conversion efficiencies (PCE). However, the precise conditions to advance to an efficiency regime above monocrystalline silicon cells ar
e not well understood. Here, we establish a simulation model that well describes efficient p-i-n type perovskite solar cells and a range of different experiments. We then study important device and material parameters and we find that an efficiency regime of 30% can be unlocked by optimizing the built-in potential across the perovskite layer by using either highly doped (10^19 cm-3), thick transport layers (TLs) or ultrathin undoped TLs, e.g. self-assembled monolayers. Importantly, we only consider parameters that have been already demonstrated in recent literature, that is a bulk lifetime of 10 us, interfacial recombination velocities of 10 cm/s, a perovskite bandgap of 1.5 eV and an EQE of 95%. A maximum efficiency of 31% is predicted for a bandgap of 1.4 eV. Finally, we demonstrate that the relatively high mobile ion density does not represent a significant barrier to reach this efficiency regime. Thus, the results of this paper promise continuous PCE improvements until perovskites may become the most efficient single-junction solar cell technology in the near future.
In this work, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with different transport layers were fabricated to understand the hysteresis phenomenon under a series of scan rates. The experimental results show that the hysteresis phenomenon would be affected by the di
electric constant of transport layers and scan rate significantly. To explain this, a modified Poisson and drift-diffusion solver coupled with a fully time-dependent ion migration model is developed to analyze how the ion migration affects the performance and hysteresis of PSCs. The simulation model was optimized for carrier transportation of organic materials, which can simulate the organic transport layer correctly without using heavy doping in simulating the organic transport layer. The modeling results show that the most crucial factor in the hysteresis behavior is the built-in electric field of the perovskite. The non-linear hysteresis curves are demonstrated under different scan rates, and the mechanism of the hysteresis behavior is explained. The findings reveal why the change in hysteresis degree with scan rate is Gaussian shaped rather than monotonic. Additionally, other factors contributing to the degree of hysteresis are determined to be the degree of degradation in the perovskite material, the quality of the perovskite crystal, and the materials of the transport layer, which corresponds to the total ion density, carrier lifetime of perovskite, and the dielectric constant of the transport layer, respectively. Finally, it was found that the dielectric constant of the transport layer is a key factor affecting hysteresis in perovskite solar cells; a lower dielectric constant corresponds to a higher electric field of the transport layer. Hence, if the electric field of the perovskite material is small, the degree of hysteresis is small and vice versa.
