Performance enhancement of perovskite solar cells through interfacial engineering: Water-soluble fullerenol C60(OH)16 as interfacial modification layer
TiO 2 is widely used in conventional n-i-p type perovskite solar cells (Pero-SCs) as electron transporting layer (ETL). However, its drawbacks such as photocatalytic properties, low electron mobility , and a process of high temperature sintering , hindered the further improvement of device performance. In this work, a vacuum-deposited fullerene C 60 was utilized as ETL, and a easily accessible fullerene derivative, C 60 (OH) 16 fullerenol, was employed between ITO electrode and C 60 ETL to modify ITO for the first time. After introducing the C 60 (OH) 16 fullerenol layer, the Pero-SC obtained the favorable energy level alignment between ITO cathode and perovskite layer, and the device based on C 60 (OH) 16 /C 60 ETL achieved a champion PCE of 16.70%, which showed a 15.41% enhancement compared to the Pero-SC with pristine C 60 ETL (14.47%). The mechanisms of performance improvement were systemically discussed with respect to the optimized energy level, efficient charge transport and reduced interfacial resistance. This work exhibited that fullerenol C 60 (OH) 16 is a promising interfacial modification material for the n-i-p type Pero-SCs.
