Perovskite solar cells with CuSCN hole extraction layers yield stabilized efficiencies greater than 20

TL;DR: Th Thin CuSCN films can replace organic hole-transporting layers that limit thermal stability of devices and demonstrate PSCs that achieve stabilized efficiencies exceeding 20% with copper(I) thiocyanate (CuSCN) as the hole extraction layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly Efficient Light-Harvesting Ruthenium Sensitizer for Thin-Film Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

TL;DR: A high molar extinction coefficient heteroleptic ruthenium complex, incorporating an electron-rich hexylthio-terminal chain, has been synthesized and demonstrated as an efficient sensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low cost photovoltaic modules based on dye sensitized nanocrystalline titanium dioxide and carbon powder

TL;DR: In this article, a new type of photovoltaic module based on monolithically series connected dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells is described, where each solar cell element consists of three porous layers on a transparent conducting substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mixed‐Organic‐Cation Perovskite Photovoltaics for Enhanced Solar‐Light Harvesting

TL;DR: This work shows that the goal of extending the optical-absorption onset of perovskite-based photovoltaics further into the red to enhance solar-light harvesting can be reached by using a mixture of formamidinium and methylammonium cations, which leads to an enhanced short-circuit current and thus superior devices to those based on only CH3 NH3 (+).
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the rate-dependent J–V hysteresis, slow time component, and aging in CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells: the role of a compensated electric field

TL;DR: In this paper, the rate-dependent hysteresis seen in current-voltage scans of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells is related to a slow field-induced process that tends to cancel the electric field in the device at each applied bias voltage.
