Understanding the effect of chlorobenzene and isopropanol anti-solvent treatments on the recombination and interfacial charge accumulation in efficient planar perovskite solar cell... by Prochowicz, Daniel, Mohammad Mahdi Tavakoli, Solanki, Ankur, Goh, Teck Wee, Pandey, Kavita, Sum, Tze Chien, Saliba, Michael, Yadav, Pankaj

“…We found that this enhanced hysteresis stems mainly from higher charge accumulation at the TiO2/perovskite interface under illumination that could also lead to formation of excess electrostatic potential contributing to an increased open circuit voltage (Voc). Our study provides a way for in-depth spectroscopic analysis methods aiding a deeper understanding of the interfacial charge characteristics and the fundamental mechanisms of PSCs.…”

Interface engineering for organic−inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells by Foo, Shini

“…Systematic characterization of the individual dopants revealed that the improved short−circuit current (JSC) in the devices employing the Al-doped TiO2 ETL was due to the reduced optical losses while the enhanced open−circuit voltage (VOC) and fill factor (FF) of the devices utilizing the In doped TiO2 ETL allowed better energy level alignment and conductivity. …”
