Journal ArticleDOI

Over 20% PCE perovskite solar cells with superior stability achieved by novel and low-cost hole-transporting materials

TL;DR: In this article, two novel molecular hole-transporting materials (HTMs) using the thiophene core were designed and synthesized (Z25 and Z26), and the perovskite solar cells based on Z26 exhibited a remarkable overall power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 20.1%, which is comparable to 20.6% obtained with spiroOMeTAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy level tuning of TPB-based hole-transporting materials for highly efficient perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: The TPBC based doping-free perovskite solar cell afforded an impressive PCE of 13.10% under AM 1.5G illumination, which is the first case of an effective device with TPB-based doping- free HTMs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Peripheral Groups on Phenothiazine-Based Hole-Transporting Materials for Perovskite Solar Cells

TL;DR: In this article, three hole-transporting materials (HTMs) based on the phenothiazine core containing 4,4-dimethyltriphenylamine (Z28), N-ethylcarbazole (Z29), and 4, 4-dimethoxytriphenylonitriou tetramethylpolysilicon (Z30) as the peripheral groups connected by double bonds were designed and synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dopant-free star-shaped hole-transport materials for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: In this article, two star-shaped TPA-based small-molecule materials (Z1012 and Z1013) were designed and synthesized in order to achieve high hole mobility and suitable energy levels for CH3NH3PbI3-based perovskite solar cells.
