Quantifying Stabilized Phase Purity in Formamidinium-Based Multiple-Cation Hybrid Perovskites

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Thomas Paul Baumeler, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora

A promising approach for the production of highly efficient and stable hybrid perovskite solar cells is employing mixed-ion materials. Remarkable performances have been reached by materials comprising a stabilized mixture of methylammonium (MA(+)) and form ...

Cyclopentadithiophene-Based Hole-Transporting Material for Highly Stable Perovskite Solar Cells with Stabilized Efficiencies Approaching 21%

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yuhang Liu, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Gwénolé Jean Jacopin, Neha Arora, Seckin Akin, Michael Bauer, Ryusuke Uchida

There is an urge to develop new hole-transporting materials (HTMs) for perovskite solar cells (PSCs), which can yield comparable power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) yet mitigate the issue of stability associated with the state-of-the-art HTM Spiro-MeOTAD. ...

Minimizing the Trade-Off between Photocurrent and Photovoltage in Triple-Cation Mixed-Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yuhang Liu, Thomas Paul Baumeler, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora, Mojtaba Abdi Jalebi, Seckin Akin, Ryusuke Uchida

Its lower bandgap makes formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI(3)) a more suitable candidate for single-junction solar cells than pure methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI(3)). However, its structural and thermodynamic stability is improved by introducing a signifi ...

Ultrahydrophobic 3D/2D fluoroarene bilayer-based water-resistant perovskite solar cells with efficiencies exceeding 22%

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Jovana Milic, Yuhang Liu, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora, Linfeng Pan, Seckin Akin, Ryusuke Uchida, Alexander Roland Uhl

Preventing the degradation of metal perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by humid air poses a substantial challenge for their future deployment. We introduce here a two-dimensional (2D) A(2)PbI(4) perovskite layer using pentafluoro-phenylethylammonium (FEA) as a ...

Halide Versus Nonhalide Salts: The Effects of Guanidinium Salts on the Structural, Morphological, and Photovoltaic Performances of Perovskite Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Simone Meloni, Neha Arora

The impacts of halide and nonhalide sources of guanidinium cations, including guanidinium chloride (GCl) ((NH2)(3)CCl) and guanidinium thiocyanate (GTC) ((NH2)(3)CSCN), are comparatively analyzed on the structural, morphological, and photophysical properti ...

New Strategies for Defect Passivation in High-Efficiency Perovskite Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora, Seckin Akin

Lead halide perovskite solar cells now show excellent efficiencies and encouraging levels of stability. Further improvements in performance require better control of the trap states which are considered to be associated with vacancies and defects at crysta ...

Low-Cost and Highly Efficient Carbon-Based Perovskite Solar Cells Exhibiting Excellent Long-Term Operational and UV Stability

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yuhang Liu, Thomas Paul Baumeler, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora, Seckin Akin, Ryusuke Uchida

Today's perovskite solar cells (PSCs) mostly use components, such as organic hole conductors or noble metal back contacts, that are very expensive or cause degradation of their photovoltaic performance. For future large-scale deployment of PSCs, these comp ...

Perovskite Solar Cells Yielding Reproducible Photovoltage of 1.20 V

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora, Pankaj Kumar Yadav, Essa Awadh R Alharbi

High photovoltages and power conversion efficiencies of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) can be realized by controlling the undesired nonradiative charge carrier recombination. Here, we introduce a judicious amount of guanidinium iodide into mixed-cation and ...

Electrochemical Characterization of CuSCN Hole-Extracting Thin Films for Perovskite Photovoltaics

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Ladislav Kavan, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Neha Arora

CuSCN thin films (optimized previously for perovskite photovoltaics) are deposited on glass, F:SnO2 (FTO), Au, glass-like carbon (GC), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). They exhibit capacitive charging in an electrochemical window from ca. -0.3 to 0.2 V vs ...
