Enhancing Efficiency and Stability of Photovoltaic Cells by Using Perovskite/Zr-MOF Heterojunction Including Bilayer and Hybrid Structures.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the effectiveness of using a perovskite/Zr-metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) heterojunction in realizing efficient and stable inverted p-i-n perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) is demonstrated. Two types of Zr-MOFs, UiO-66 and MOF-808, are investigated owing to their respectable moisture and chemical stabilities. The MOFs while serving as an interlayer in conjunction with the perovskite film are shown to possess the advantages of UV-filtering capability and enhancing perovskite crystallinity. Consequently, the UiO-66/MOF-808-modified PVSCs yield enhanced power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 17.01% and 16.55%, outperforming the control device (15.79%). While further utilizing a perovskite/Zr-MOF hybrid heterojunction to fabricate the devices, the hybrid MOFs are found to possibly
