Similar or different: the same Spiro-core but different alkyl chains with apparently improved device performance of perovskite solar cells

By intelligently utilizing the odd-even effect existing in the melting points of alkanes as presented in the basic textbook of Organic Chemistry, different alkoxy groups were introduced to modify the structure of commercial Spiro-OMeTAD to give new Spiro derivatives of Spiro-OEtTAD, Spiro-OPrTAD, Spiro-OiPrTAD and Spiro-OBuTAD, with the aim to adjust the molecular packing status in perovskite solar cells as hole transporting compounds. Excitedly, with the introduction of ethoxy groups instead of the methoxy ones in Spiro-OMeTAD, Spiro-OEtTAD-based perovskite solar cells demonstrated the highest device performance of 20.16%, higher than that of Spiro-OMeTAD (18.64%).

Long-Term Stability of the Oxidized Hole-Transporting Materials used in Perovskite Solar Cells

The vast majority of the hole transporting materials require the use of chemical doping as an essential step for preparation of efficient perovskite solar cells. An oxidized organic hole-transporting material, obtained during a doping procedure, could potentially be one of the weak links in the device composition. It is not uncommon for the solar cell to heat up under summer sun; therefore, all device components must possess some degree of resistance to repetitive thermal stress. In the current publication, a series of oxidized hole-transporting materials have been synthesized and their long-term stability investigated. During thermal stability testing of the films, kept at 100 °C under an inert atmosphere, it was observed that oxidized HTMs start to degrade and partly revert to original unoxidized material. It is known that oxidized HTM, formed during doping, is responsible for the increased conductivity and ultimately for better efficiency of hole extraction process in the PSC device; therefore, observed instability of the oxidized HTMs in the thin films at elevated temperatures could be one of the causes of drop in conductivity reported for the doped spiro-OMeTAD. It could also potentially be one of the reasons why perovskite solar cells lose their efficiency under prolonged thermal stress.

O-methoxy substituents in spiro-OMeTAD for efficient inorganic-organic hybrid perovskite solar cells

Three spiro-OMeTAD derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The optical and electronic properties of the derivatives were modified by changing the positions of the two methoxy substituents in each of the quadrants, as monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry measurements. The derivatives were employed as hole-transporting materials (HTMs), and their performances were compared for the fabrication of mesoporous TiO2/CH 3NH3PbI3/HTM/Au solar cells. Surprisingly, the cell performance was dependent on the positions of the OMe substituents. The derivative with o-OMe substituents showed highly improved performance by exhibiting a short-circuit current density of 21.2 mA/cm2, an open-circuit voltage of 1.02 V, and a fill factor of 77.6% under 1 sun illumination (100 mW/cm2), which resulted in an overall power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 16.7%, compared to ～15% for conventional p-OMe substituents. The PCE of 16.7% is the highest value reported to date for perovskite-based solar cells with spiro-OMeTAD.
