Self-assembly of porphyrins on perovskite film for blade-coating stable large-area methylammonium-free solar cells

English

  • Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attached tremendous attention due to their excellent photovoltaic properties and low-cost solution processing techniques [14]. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs has rapidly improved up to 25.7% [58]. Among the perovskite materials used in PSCs, methylammonium (MA)-perovskites reveal the poor stability at high temperature or under light illumination, which is negative to the commercial application of devices [911]. By comparison, formamidinium (FA)-based perovskite materials with suitable bandgap exhibit broader light absorption spectra extending to 840 nm, thereby yielding the great cell performance. Especially, they have the better thermal stability, rendering FA cation promising candidate for the organic cation in perovskite [1214]. However, the photoactive FAPbI3 is thermodynamically stable only above 150 ℃, which rapidly changes to the yellow δ-phase at room temperature [1518]. Effectively controlling the phase transition to avoid the generation of δ-phase is essential to optimize the PCE and stability of FA-based devices.

    Some efforts have been made to understand the mechanism behind the phase transition of FA-based perovskites. For instance, Zhu and his coworkers found that the intrinsic instability of α-phase FAPbI3 came from the anisotropic strained lattice in the (111) plane, which caused the transition from α to δ phase [19]. Researchers deeply investigated the cause of strained lattice and found that larger FA ions could distort the cage of PbI6 octahedra and therefore generate the strain in perovskite lattice [20,21]. The yielded lattice strain was mainly concentrated at perovskite interface, thereby resulting in the degradation of perovskite film [22,23]. Several approaches had been developed to stabilize the α-phase FAPbI3 at room temperature, including the construction of 2D/3D hybrid perovskite [24,25], surface functionalization engineering [26,27], and composition engineering [2830], adding Cs ion into FA perovskite (FA-Cs) for the stabilization of perovskite lattice was considered as an applicable way to stabilize the α-phase FAPbI3 perovskite films, especially for large-area devices [31,32]. However, the crystallization process of FA-Cs perovskite remains largely uncontrollable, then resulting in the poor quality perovskite films with large number of pinholes [33,34]. Additionally, the phase separation is easily generated in the FA-Cs perovskite film under long-term continuous illumination condition [35,36]. These issues are detrimental to the performance and overall stability of FA-Cs-based PSCs. Thus, how to simultaneously address the phase transition and phase separation in FA-Cs perovskite film is still a challenge, which is rarely studied at current stage.

    Porphyrins and their derivatives with good thermal stabilities and charge transport properties have been demonstrated as a promising surfactant in perovskite film [37,38]. Here, a surfactant-like monoamine nickel porphyrin (NiP) was directly doped into FA-Cs perovskite precursor solution to prepare perovskite film by blade-coating under ambient condition. During the vacuum-assisted crystallization process, the NiP molecules rapidly self-assembled into supramolecule (Fig. 1a) on the top surface of perovskite film to control the film growth and defects formation. The introduced NiP-supramolecules bound on perovskite film surface effectively released the residual lattice strain and further inhibited the phase transition of FAPbI3 from α to δ phase. Approaching record efficiency as 20.31% (20.37% for the record performance prepared by blade-coating [39]) for blade-coating large-area (1.0 cm2) FA-Cs-based PSCs with NiP-supramolecule was unprecedentedly realized in ambient environment, which was further certified as 19.16% with an area of 1.0014 cm2. More importantly, the bound supramolecule layer boosted the efficient interfacial charge extraction and transport from perovskite layer, thus to suppress phase separation of FA-Cs perovskite. The unencapsulated PSCs with NiP-supramolecule exhibited the remarkably enhanced overall stabilities, such as the photostability by maintaining an initial efficiency of 80% under AM 1.5 G solar light continuous illumination over 1300 h.

    In this work, the perovskite composition being Cs0.05FA0.95PbI3 was employed as the light absorber to fabricate MA-free perovskite films. Surfactant-like NiP was doped in the precursor solution to prepare the FA-Cs perovskite films by vacuum-assisted blade-coating method (Figs. 1b-d, the detailed prepared process shown in Experimental Section). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the introduction of NiP modulated the crystallization process of FA-Cs perovskite film and reduced the surficial pinholes, thus to yield a dense perovskite film with more homogeneous grain size (Figs. 1e and f, Figs. S1 and S2 in Supporting information). X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of NiP-doped perovskite powder was in good agreement with the simulated value obtained from the crystal structure of NiP-supramolecule (Fig. 1 g), clearly verifying that the introduced NiP molecules was self-assembled into supramolecule within perovskite film. The consistent UV–visible spectra of perovskite films without and with NiP doping (Fig. S3 in Supporting information) indicated that the doped NiP-supramolecule did not enter the perovskite lattice and change the perovskite composition. Time flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) tests were further conducted to assess the dispersed position of NiP-supramolecule in perovskite film. As shown in Figs. 1 h-j, the NiP-supramolecule was mainly deposited on the surface of perovskite film, probably attributable to the rapid crystallization of NiP-supramolecule during vacuum-assisted process. We found by Infrared Radiation (IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) test that the organic cations in perovskites could protonate NiP molecules in supramolecule to generate the ammonium porphyrins (NiP-H+) (Figs. S4 and S5 in Supporting information) [38,40]. Figs. S6-S9 (Supporting information) further demonstrate they will be anchored on perovskite grain surface. Thus, we can conclude that with the assistance of vacuum process, the introduced NiP molecules in perovskite film self-assemble into supramolecule to in situ anchor on the surface of perovskite film. Such a modification adjusts the crystallization process of perovskite film and reduces the film defects generation, resulting in the fabrication of high-quality FA-Cs perovskite film.

    The components of perovskite films without and with NiP-supramolecule were evaluated by the XRD measurements. As illustrated in Fig. 2a, the peak at 11.8° in the pristine FA-Cs perovskite film indicated the presence of δ-phase FAPbI3. In comparison, the film modified by NiP-supramolecule showed no obvious peak at 11.8°, which indicated the formation of δ-phase FAPbI3 was effectively inhibited. To gain insights into the effect of NiP-supramolecule on the crystallization process of FA-Cs perovskite films, the UV–vis spectra of perovskite films with and without NiP doping were tested during vacuum-assisted process. As shown in Fig. S10 (Supporting information), compared to the pristine perovskite film, the NiP-doped perovskite film revealed a faster intensity increase around 400 nm and an earlier tendency to form perovskite phase [39]. The phase generation process of perovskite films was further investigated by XRD tests. As observed in Figs. 2b and c, the solvent-coordinated intermediate phase was formed in the films without and with NiP-supramolecule modification at the begging of vacuum-assisted process [7,33]. A significant δ-phase FAPbI3 was yielded after 2 s vacuum treatment for the pristine perovskite film. By contrast, the α-phase FAPbI3 was rapidly yielded in the NiP-doped perovskite film within 1 s after vacuum-assisted initiation. Additionally, the NiP-supramolecule modified film tended to form α-phase FAPbI3 in the following vacuum treatment time. These findings verify that the supramolecule adjusts the growth of FA-Cs perovskite film, to preferentially generate a pure α-phase FAPbI3 in the modified film.

    Studies revealed that the lattice distortion induced by larger FA ions generated the lattice strain in FA-based perovskite film surface, further resulting in the spontaneous phase transition of FAPbI3 film. The NiP-supramolecules modified on perovskite film would influence the lattice strain to maintain the α phase FA-Cs perovskite film at room temperature. To quantify the effect of supramolecule structure, we calculated the lattice strain in FA-Cs perovskite films by the simplified Williamson-Hall (WH) method (the detailed formula simplification procedure shown in Experimental Section in Supporting information) [4143]:

    The magnitude of ε can be derived from the slope of β cos θ versus 4sin θ. We determined the values of β and θ from the XRD data (Fig. 2a) by Gaussian fit (Table S1 in Supporting information) to calculate the lattice strain in perovskite films. As prepared in Fig. 2d and Fig. S11 (Supporting information), the results revealed that the strain in supramolecule modified perovskite film (1.674 × 10−4) was obviously reduced than that of pure perovskite film (1.936 × 10−4), verifying that the NiP-supramolecules modified on perovskite film could release the lattice strain to inhibit the occurrence of phase transition in FA-based film.

    Hole mobility tests were prepared to investigate the charge transportation ability of NiP-supramolecule modified FA-Cs perovskite film. As shown in Fig. 2e and Table S2 (Supporting information), the NiP-doped perovskite film has higher hole mobility with 2.99 × 10−4 cm2 V−1 s−1 than that of pristine perovskite film with 1.48 × 10−4 cm2 V−1 s−1. In the Mott-Schottky test, the slope of the NiP-doped perovskite film was larger than the pristine perovskite film (Fig. 2f), exhibited lower interfacial charge density. These results verify the introduction of supramolecule facilitate the interfacial charge extraction and transport. Steady-state photoluminescence (PL) spectra revealed the modified perovskite film had a stronger FL intensity than the pristine perovskite film (Fig. 2g), suggesting that there had fewer defects in the modified film to suppress the non-radiative recombination. The densities of hole trap states of films without and with NiP doping were estimated to be 7.17 × 1015 cm−3 and 3.34 × 1015 cm−3 via the space-charge limited current (SCLC) measurement (Fig. 2 h and Table S3 in Supporting information), further demonstrating that the NiP-supramoleule could passivate the interfacial defects to obtain high-quality α-phase FAPbI3 film. In addition, the NiP-doped perovskite film exhibited a larger Voc than the pristine perovskite film under light intensities. The ideality factor decreased from 1.18 for the pristine sample to 1.11 for the NiP-doped perovskite film (Fig. S12 in Supporting information), which implied that the trap-assisted recombination is suppressed with the decrease of trap states by supramolecule modification. The larger recombination resistance for NiP-doped perovskite film was also observed than that of pure perovskite film by Nyquist plots of electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) (Fig. 2i). These results exhibit that NiP-supramolecules modified on the surface of perovskite film could reduce interfacial charge recombination and facilitates charge extraction and transport.

    The PSC devices were fabricated with FTO/modified ZnO [44] /mesoporous TiO2/perovskite/Spiro-OMeTAD structure to assess the function of NiP-supramolecule on the cell performance. As shown in Fig. 3a and Table S4 (Supporting information), the modification of NiP-supramolecule significantly reduce the hysteresis and improves the efficiency of the PSCs, and the best efficiency of the small area (0.1 cm2) NiP-doped device is as high as 21.6%. The incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) spectra of the devices without and with NiP doping are in good agreement with their corresponding J-V test data (Fig. 3b). The stabilized efficiency output further evaluated NiP-doped device with the champion efficiency of 21.1% (Fig. 3c). Then, we blade-coated large-area perovskite films to verify the positive effect on the large-area PSCs by introducing supramolecule. As illustrated in Fig. 3d and Table S5 (Supporting information), the Voc and FF were significantly increased with the modification of supramolecule. The average efficiency of large area PSCs with NiP doping was 19.4% ± 0.9%, while the control device was 18.2% ± 0.9% (Fig. 3e). Especially, the best efficiency of NiP-doped PSCs reached 20.31% for an area of 1.0 cm2, which is close to the record efficiency (20.37% [39]) of large-area PSCs prepared by blade-coating (Fig. 3f and Table S5 in Supporting information). Eventually, the efficiency of PSCs with NiP doping was certified as 19.16% with an area of 1.0014 cm2 (Fig. S13 in Supporting information). Therefore, the NiP-supramolecule modified on the perovskite surface promotes the charge extraction and transport to further improve the cell performance.

    Since porphyrins have excellent hydrophobicity, NiP-doped perovskite film exhibit higher water contact angle compared to the pristine film (Fig. S14 in Supporting information). The stabilities of PSCs without and with NiP were tested with FTO/modified ZnO [44] /mesoporousTiO2/perovskite/phth-alocyanine [45] without encapsulation. Moisture stability of PSCs was performed with the humidity of 65% at room temperature, the NiP-doped device maintained more than 80% of its initial efficiency after 800 h, while the control device was almost entirely disabled (Fig. 4a). Thermal stability of PSCs was carried out at 85 ℃ and ~55% humidity, as shown in Fig. 4b, the NiP-doped device retained over 80% of its initial efficiency after 1200 h, while the control PSC maintained only < 40% of initial efficiency in the same time span. Photostability of the PSCs were tested at the AM 1.5 G illumination in N2 atmosphere, the NiP-doped device maintained 80% of its original efficiency after 1300 h (Fig. 4c), whereas the control device failed rapidly after 450 h under the same condition.

The PVSK films were placed under AM 1.5 G illumination aged 0 h and 12 h. (d) XRD patterns, (e) enlarged XRD patterns from 9° to 15°, and (f) normalized PL spectra.

    The enhanced photostability of NiP-doped PSCs is of great significance to push the commercial application of FA-Cs-based PSCs. Researches pointed out that FA-Cs perovskite could generate Cs-rich clusters under long-term light exposure, resulting in photogenerated carrier transport hindrance. Such a situation led to the heterogeneous distributions of CsPbI3 and FAPbI3 phase to further generate phase separation [36,46]. This phenomenon severely impairs the performance of FA-based PSCs and limit their commercial application. To gain insights into the enhancement of the photostability in NiP-supramoleule modified FA-Cs PSCs, we subjected the perovskite films to AM 1.5 G illumination for 12 h aging. A shown in Figs. 4d and e, compared to the pristine perovskite film, the (001) crystalline peak of NiP-doped perovskite film in the XRD patterns was shifted with a smaller angle after 12 h illumination. Additionally, the pristine FA-Cs perovskite film generated a new peak at 9.5° assigned to the δ-phase CsPbI3 after 12 h light exposure. We speculate from these results that the formation of the FA-rich phase was suppressed by NiP-supramoleule, which was further evaluated by the peak shift in PL emission. As shown in Fig. 4f, the aged NiP-doped perovskite film had a smaller red-shifted than the pristine perovskite film. These results indicate that the pristine perovskite film spontaneously generate FA-rich perovskite phase (FA > 0.95Cs < 0.05PbI3) and Cs-rich perovskite phase (FA < 0.95Cs > 0.05PbI3) after 12 h illumination [35,47]. In contrast, the phase separation was effectively suppressed in NiP-doped PSCs. Thus, we can conclude that NiP-supramolecules can release lattice strain and promote the charge extraction and transport, thereby to prevent the blocking and accumulation of photogenerated carrier. Thus, effectively suppressing the phase separation of FA-Cs perovskite and enhancing the photostability of PSCs.

    In this work, we introduced NiP molecules into perovskite precursor solution to fabricate PSCs by vacuum-assisted blade-coating method. With the assistance of vacuum treatment, the NiP molecules self-assembled into NiP-supramolecule bound on perovskite film surface. The supramolecule adjusts the crystallization process of perovskite film to form high quality α-phase-dominated film and the lattice strain in FA-Cs perovskite film was released to inhibit the phase transition. Meanwhile, the formed NiP-supramolecule promoted hole extraction and transport to suppress the phase separation of perovskite film during continuous illumination. As a result, the large-area NiP-doped MA-free PSCs with PCE as high as 20.31% were fabricated with significantly enhanced photostability. Our work provides a promising approach for preparation of efficient and stable large-area FA-Cs-based PSCs.
