Abstract
- SnO2 has attracted extensive attention in planar perovskite solar cells (PSCs) owing to its outstanding photoelectric properties and low temperature preparation. However, pinholes are easy to appear in the annealing process of SnO2 films, which limits its application in planar PSCs. Here lists a simple and low-cost method: Urea-complexed tin oxide in deionized water can effectively control the concentration of SnO2. This process is conducive to forming a compact surface morphology. Meanwhile, the work explored the effect of the properties of PSCs with different thicknesses of SnO2 layers. The system analysis showed that PSCs based on 60 nm SnO2 layer and the methamphetamine lead iodide (MAPbI3) light absorber yielded the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) over 18%, a fill factor (FF) of 0.793, and good stability. Therefore, we believe our study provides an effective way for preparing electron transport layers.
