The optoelectronic properties of all-inorganic perovskite solar cells are greatly affected by the quality characteristics of films, such as the defect concentration, crystal growth orientation, crystallinity, and morphology. In this study, a PbI-(DMSO) complex is adopted to partially replace PbI as the lead source in the preparation of perovskite precursor solutions. Due to the rapid dispersion of the PbI-(DMSO) complex in a solvent, raw materials can rapidly react to form perovskite colloids with a narrow size distribution. Such uniform colloidal particles are found to be beneficial for achieving films with improved quality and highly orientated growth along the [001] direction. The optimized film exhibits a clearly improved crystallinity and a decrease in defect concentration from 4.29 × 10 cm to 3.20 × 10 cm. The device based on the obtained all-inorganic CsPbIBr perovskite finally achieves an increase in photovoltaic power conversion efficiency from 10.5 to 14.15%. In addition, the environmental stability of the device also benefits from the improved film quality. After 480 h of storage in air, the device can still maintain nearly 80% of its initial performance.
全无机钙钛矿太阳能电池的光电性能受到薄膜质量特性的极大影响,如缺陷浓度、晶体生长取向、结晶度和形貌。在本研究中,采用PbI-(DMSO)络合物部分替代PbI作为制备钙钛矿前驱体溶液的铅源。由于PbI-(DMSO)络合物在溶剂中快速分散,原料能迅速反应形成尺寸分布窄的钙钛矿胶体。发现这种均匀的胶体颗粒有利于获得质量提高且沿[001]方向高度取向生长的薄膜。优化后的薄膜结晶度明显提高,缺陷浓度从4.29×10 cm降至3.20×10 cm。基于所得全无机CsPbIBr钙钛矿的器件最终实现了光电功率转换效率从10.5%提高到14.15%。此外,器件的环境稳定性也得益于薄膜质量的提高。在空气中储存480小时后,器件仍能保持其初始性能的近80%。
