Abstract

By the introduction of an organic silane self-assembled monolayer, an interface-engineering approach is demonstrated for hole-conductor-free, fully printable mesoscopic perovskite solar cells based on a carbon counter electrode. The self-assembled silane monolayer is incorporated between the TiO2 and CH3NH3PbI3, resulting in optimized interface band alignments and enhanced charge lifetime. The average power conversion efficiency is improved from 9.6% to 11.7%, with a highest efficiency of 12.7%, for this low-cost perovskite solar cell.
