Abstract Interfacial engineering has made an outstanding contribution to the development of high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here, we introduce an effective interface passivation strategy via methoxysilane molecules with different terminal groups. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) has increased from 20.97% to 21.97% after introducing a 3-isocyanatopropyltrimethoxy silane (IPTMS) molecule with carbonyl group, while a trimethoxy[3-(phenylamino)propyl] silane (PAPMS) molecule containing aniline group deteriorates the photovoltaic performance as a consequence of decreased open circuit voltage. The improved performance after IPTMS treatment is ascribed to the suppression of non-radiative recombination and enhancement of carrier transportation. In addition, the devices with carbonyl group modification exhibit outstanding thermal stability, which maintain 90% of its initial PCE after 1500 h exposure. This work provides a guideline for the design of passivation molecules aiming to deliver the efficiency and thermal stability simultaneously.

In recent years, lead halide perovskites have attracted considerable attention from the scientific community due to their exceptional properties and fast-growing enhancement for solar energy harvesting efficiency. One of the fundamental aspects of the architecture of perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) is the electron transport layer (ETL), which also acts as a barrier for holes. In this work, the influence of compact TiO2 ETL on the performance of planar heterojunction solar cells based on CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite was investigated. ETLs were deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates from a titanium diisopropoxide bis(acetylacetonate) precursor solution using the spin-coating method with changing precursor concentration and centrifugation speed. It was found that the thickness and continuity of ETLs, investigated between 0 and 124 nm, strongly affect the photovoltaic performance of PSCs, in particular short-circuit current density (JSC). Optical and topographic properties of the compact TiO2 layers were investigated as well.
