TLDR
In this article, a two-step deposition technique was used for preparing CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells using ZrO2 and TiO2 as a mesoporous layer, achieving an efficiency of 10.8% and 9.5% under 1000 W m−2 illumination.Abstract:
A two-step deposition technique is used for preparing CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells. Using ZrO2 and TiO2 as a mesoporous layer, we obtain an efficiency of 10.8% and 9.5%, respectively, under 1000 W m−2 illumination. The ZrO2 based solar cell shows higher photovoltage and longer electron lifetime than the TiO2 based solar cell.read more

TL;DR: It is proposed that this is due to the electronic passivation of under-coordinated Pb atoms within the crystal, and power conversion efficiencies for solution-processed planar heterojunction solar cells enhanced from 13% for the untreated solar cells to 15.3% and 16.5% for thiophene and pyridine-treated solar cells, respectively.
