Interfacial and bulk properties of hole transporting materials in perovskite solar cells: spiro-MeTAD versus spiro-OMeTAD

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Elham Halvani Anaraki, Mona Shasti

Two spiro-MeTAD compounds (1 and 2) were synthesized, characterized by experimental and quantum mechanical methods, and used as hole transporting materials (HTMs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The new compounds differ from spiro-OMeTAD only by the pres ...

Identifying and suppressing interfacial recombination to achieve high open-circuit voltage in perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Konrad Domanski, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Antonio Abate, Michael Saliba, Elham Halvani Anaraki, Silver Hamill Turren Cruz

With close to 100% internal quantum efficiency over the absorption spectrum, photocurrents in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are at their practical limits. It is therefore imperative to improve open-circuit voltages (VOC) in order to go beyond the current 1 ...

Nondestructive Probing of Perovskite Silicon Tandem Solar Cells Using Multiwavelength Photoluminescence Mapping

Michael Graetzel, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Michael Saliba, Elham Halvani Anaraki

In this paper, spatially resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy with various excitation wavelengths is presented as a nondestructive and versatile technique providing access to the individual subcells of multijunction solar cells. This method is demo ...

Highly efficient and stable planar perovskite solar cells by solution-processed tin oxide

Michael Graetzel, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Ludmilla Steier, Konrad Domanski, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Antonio Abate, Taisuke Matsui, Michael Saliba, Elham Halvani Anaraki

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are one of the most promising lab-scale technologies to deliver inexpensive solar electricity. Low-temperature planar PSCs are particularly suited for large-scale manufacturing. Here, we propose a simple, solution-processed te ...
