  Abstract: 

  Efficiently and economically harnessing the solar energy via photovoltaic (PV) devices presents as one of promising solutions to the global energy crisis. However, over 80% available PVs are silicon-based solar cells and inorganic thin film solar cells, which are expensive and require critical processing techniques. Solution-processed perovskites hybrids solar cells have shown great potential as novel, high-efficient and low-cost PV devices, which are renewable, economic and green energy sources in the future energy market. In this presentation, I would like to share with you how we approach high-performance solution-processed perovskite hybrid solar cells. 

   In order to facilitate electron extraction efficiency in perovskite solar cells and make it comparable to the hole extraction efficiency, we, for the first time, demonstrate bulk heterojuncion perovskite solar cells with enhanced efficiency and less photo-hysteresis; 

   By reengineering the interface of solution-processed perovskite materials with cross-linkable ionomer and polymer doped high electrical conductive hole extraction layer, we are able to demonstrate perovskite hybrid solar cells with boosted efficiency and significantly reduced photo-hysteresis;  

   In order to balance charge transporting properties, eliminate toxic lead and enhance stability of cells, we have developed novel perovskite materials incorporated with transition metals for substituting lead and incorporated with polymer to enhance the stability. As a result, device performances of solution-processed perovskite solar cells fabricated by these novel perovskite materials are significantly boosted.
