Problems solved by technology

However, from the perspective of material growth kinetics, rapid crystallization at low temperature usually results in perovskite films with low crystallinity, high defect density, and small grains, which reduces the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells. sex

[0225]material

[0226]Unless otherwise stated, all chemicals were purchased from Sigma Aldrich and used without further purification. Methylammonium iodide was purchased from Greatcell Solar. The methyl ammonium hypophosphite was synthesized according to the procedure proven by Xiao et al. (Energy & Environmental Science (Energy & Environmental Science) 9, 867-872 (2016)).

[0227]Device characteristics

[0228]The J-V measurement of the perovskite module was performed with a Keithley 2400 source meter under simulated AM 1.5G radiation generated by a xenon lamp-based solar simulator (Sol3A, AAA solar simulator). A silicon reference cell (Newport 91150V-KG5) was used to calibrate the light intensity. The scan rate of the module is 1V / s and there is no pre-adjustment before measurement. To measure the long-term operational stability of the perovskite module, the module was encapsulated, illuminated by a daylight equivalent metal halide lamp, and loaded at the maximum power point. To measure t...

[0231]Example 2: Use N 2 Knife Checking the Influence of Solvent on the Crystallinity of Perovskite

[0232]Then studied the room temperature N of the perovskite film using VNCS, NVCS or a combination of the two2Auxiliary doctor blade coating (Figure 3A withFigure 3D ). The membrane coated with 2-ME or ACN:2-ME (3:2 volume ratio) turns black immediately after coating, showing a pure perovskite phase, as passedFigure 4A withFigure 4C As evidenced by the X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD). In contrast, when DMSO or DMF is used as a solvent, the film remains wet and requires tens of minutes to dry at room temperature. Due to the strong coordination of DMSO or DMF with the perovskite precursor ink material, these films show a strong XRD peak of the mesophase below 10°. It should be noted that the drying of GBL-based solutions is also slow, but due to its low coordination capacity for GBL (such as the coordination capacity of 2-ME and ACN), the freshly dried membrane only exhibits a pure perov...
