Vapour-based processing of hole-conductor-free CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite/C60 fullerene planar solar cells†
Abstract
A new sequential-vapour-deposition method is demonstrated for the growth of high-quality CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite films. This has enabled the all-vapour, low-temperature fabrication of hole-conductor-free planar perovskite solar cells consisting of only a CH3NH3PbI3/C60 bi-layer sandwiched between two electrical contacts, with a power conversion efficiency of 5.4%.
