Decoupling the effects of defects on efficiency and stability through phosphonates in stable halide perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, David Lyndon Emsley, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Zaiwei Wang, Hui-Seon Kim, Anand Agarwalla

Understanding defects is of paramount importance for the development of stable halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, isolating their distinctive effects on device efficiency and stability is currently a challenge. We report that adding the organic ...

Vapor-assisted deposition of highly efficient, stable black-phase FAPbI(3) perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, David Lyndon Emsley, Ursula Röthlisberger, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Likai Zheng, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Yuhang Liu, Zaiwei Wang

Mixtures of cations or halides with FAPbI(3) (where FA is formamidinium) lead to high efficiency in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) but also to blue-shifted absorption and long-term stability issues caused by loss of volatile methylammonium (MA) and phase se ...

Performance of perovskite solar cells under simulated temperature-illumination real-world operating conditions

Michael Graetzel, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Konrad Domanski, Essa Awadh R Alharbi, Brian Irving Carlsen, Anand Agarwalla

Since reaching 20% efficiency, research in perovskite photovoltaics has shifted from a race for efficiency to a race for stability. For efficiency, the standard test conditions set the rules for the race. However, the term 'stability' is used very broadly ...
