We develop a novel hole extracting buffer layer material, namely PbI₂. The structure of the device we fabricate is ITO/PbI₂/P3HT:PC₆₁BM/Al (indium tin oxide/lead iodide/poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester/aluminum cathode). The preparation method involves spin-coating and thermal evaporation. We study the effectiveness of using PbI₂ in the prototype ITO/P3HT:PC₆₁BM/Al polymer solar cell devices. The concentration, annealing temperature, and annealing time all have an influence on the quality of the PbI₂ films. Obviously, higher-quality PbI₂ films will lead to better power conversion efficiency. The transmittance, crystallization, and morphology properties of the PbI₂ films can be used to describe the quality of the films. We characterize the PbI₂ film affording the best performance by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Our results reveal that the performance of the solar cell device is sensitive to the concentration of PbI₂, and the best conditions are a concentration of 3 mg·mL^-1, annealing temperature of 100 ℃, and annealing time of 30 min. The open circuit voltage (V_oc) is 0.45 V, the short circuit current density (J_sc) is 7.9 mA·cm^-2, and the fill factor (FF) is 0.46. Compared with the devices without any buffer layer (0.85%), the power conversion efficiency (PCE) using PbI₂ as the buffer layer can reach 1.64%.
