We present a novel self-doping method to obtain trivalent nickel oxide (Ni2O3) as an HTL, and its excellent optical transmittance and hole extraction efficiencies lead to a PCE of 17.89% and high FF of 82.66%.

Abstract Nickel oxide (NiOx) hole transport layer was made from nickel oxide powder by a simple process and non-stabilizer or chelating agent. We used ethanol as main solvent and nitric acid less than 2% as co-solvent. The formation reaction mechanism of NiOx thin film was also studied. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with the optimum thickness of 70 nm exhibited power conversion efficiency as high as 12.99%, which is superior to those of PSCs with their counterparts. The moisture stability of NiOx based device (non-encapsulated) remained above 70% of their initial output after 700h storage at ambient conditions.

A ferrocenedicarboxylic acid modified NiOx layer greatly improves the crystallization of a perovskite, its interface contact properties and electrical conductivity and also passivates the interface.

Here, a low-temperature solution-processed nickel oxide (NiOx) thin film was first employed as a hole transport layer in both inverted (p-i-n) planar and regular (n-i-p) mesoscopic organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PVSCs).
