Nanoarchitectonics in fully printed perovskite solar cells with carbon-based electrodes

A sacrificial film of polystyrene nanoparticles was utilized to introduce nano-cavities in mesoporous metal oxide layers. This enabled the growth of larger perovskite crystals inside the oxide scaffold with significantly suppressed non-radiative recombination and improving device performance. This work exemplifies potential applications of such nanoarchitectonic approaches in perovskite opto-electronic devices.
