摘要

We develop a novel polyfullerene electron transporter called PFBCP

which achieves both efficient electron transport and hole blocking in a single layer. Our blade-coated perovskite solar cells utilizing PFBCP achieve a high power conversion efficiency exceeding 22% and retain 91% of initial efficiency after 1

200 hours of light soaking.

Abstract

In prevailing p-i-n perovskite solar cells (PSCs)

solution-processible fullerene molecules are widely used as electron-transporting layers (ETLs) but they typically suffer from poor uniformity and undesirable stability issues. Additionally

a separate bathocuproine (BCP) layer is needed to block hole transfer

increasing fabrication complexity and cost. Here

we address these limitations by developing a novel p

olymeric ETL (named PFBCP) synthesized by polymerizing C

with BCP. This innovative material achieves both efficient electron transport and hole blocking

while its excellent uniformity minimizes interface recombination and enhances stability. Consequently

our blade-coated PSCs utilizing PFBCP achieve a high power conversion efficiency exceeding 22% and retain 91% of initial efficiency after 1200 h of light exposure. This development not only paves the way for commercially viable PSCs but also opens avenues for future ETL design to realize even more efficient and stable PSCs.
