Constructing Chromium Multioxide Hole-Selective Heterojunction for High-Performance Perovskite Solar Cells.

ABSTRACT: Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) suffer from significant nonradiative recombination at perovskite/charge transport layer heterojunction, seriously limiting their power conversion efficiencies. Herein, solution-processed chromium multioxide (CrO_x ) is judiciously selected to construct a MAPbI₃ /CrO_x /Spiro-OMeTAD hole-selective heterojunction. It is demonstrated that the inserted CrO_x not only effectively reduces defect sites via redox shuttle at perovskite contact, but also decreases valence band maximum (VBM)-HOMO offset between perovskite and Spiro-OMeTAD. This will diminish thermionic losses for collecting holes and thus promote charge transport across the heterojunction, suppressing both defect-assisted recombination and interface carrier recomb
