The employment of self-assembled molecular hybrid could improve buried interface in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the interplay among hybrid self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) during the deposition process has not been well-studied. Herein, we study the interaction between co-adsorbents and commonly used SAM material, [4-(3,6-dimethyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)butyl]phosphonic acid (Me-4PACz) for wide-bandgap (WBG) PSCs. It is found that the co-adsorbent, 6-aminohexane-1-sulfonic acid (SA) tends to fill the uncovered sites without interference with Me-4PACz, ensuring the formation of a dense hole selective layer. Moreover, the use of SA/Me-4PACz mixed SAMs could effectively reduce the interfacial non-radiative recombination loss, optimize the energy alignment at the buried interface and regulate the crystallization of WBG perovskite. As a result, the 1.77 eV WBG PSCs deliver a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 20.67% (20.21% certified) and an impressive open-circuit voltage (V) of 1.332 V (1.313 V certified). By combining with a 1.26 eV narrow-bandgap (NBG) PSC, we further fabricate 2-terminal all-perovskite tandem solar cells (TSCs) with a PCE of 28.94% (28.78% certified) for 0.087 cm and 23.92% for mini-module with an aperture area of 11.3 cm.
自组装分子杂化物的应用可以改善钙钛矿太阳能电池(PSC)中的掩埋界面。然而,在沉积过程中杂化自组装单分子层(SAMs)之间的相互作用尚未得到充分研究。在此,我们研究了共吸附剂与宽带隙(WBG)PSC常用的SAM材料[4-(3,6-二甲基-9H-咔唑-9-基)丁基]膦酸(Me-4PACz)之间的相互作用。发现共吸附剂6-氨基己烷-1-磺酸(SA)倾向于填充未覆盖的位点而不干扰Me-4PACz,确保形成致密的空穴选择性层。此外,使用SA/Me-4PACz混合SAMs可以有效降低界面非辐射复合损失,优化掩埋界面处的能量排列并调节WBG钙钛矿的结晶。结果,1.77 eV的WBG PSC的功率转换效率(PCE)为20.67%(认证值为20.21%),开路电压(V)高达1.332 V(认证值为1.313 V)。通过与1.26 eV窄带隙(NBG)PSC结合,我们进一步制备了两端全钙钛矿串联太阳能电池(TSC),对于0.087 cm²的面积,PCE为28.94%(认证值为28.78%),对于孔径面积为11.3 cm²的微型模块,PCE为23.92%。
