Two spiro-OMeTAD analogues featuring a spiro[fluorene-9,9-xanthene] central core have been designed and applied in PSCs as dopant-free HTLs. The device based on SP-SMe reveals better performance operational stability than the spiro-OMeTAD-based device.
Organic ammonium salts are widely used for surface passivation to enhance the photovoltaic (PV) performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, protic nature units results in quick degradation perovskites due hydrogen bonding interaction with water molecules. Recently, organo-sulfur compounds have attracted growing interest as layers on three-dimensional their moisture-resistive behavior. Herein, trimethylsulfonium iodide (TMSI), an aprotic S-based organic compound, is...

Abstract The photochemical reactions perform a progressively important role in the field of green chemistry and organic synthesis from last decades. It has always been considered as eco‐friendly, inexpensive, most abundant endlessly renewable energy source. organoboronic acids esters occupy central position so development novel methodology for preparation organoboron compounds is essential. In recent years, visible light‐induced photoredox catalysis created more influence on different using...
A dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) architecture is presented with the high dielectric SrF2 incorporated into a semiconducting TiO2 photoanode (SrF2/TiO2). Polarization at dielectric/semiconductor interface optimum composition of SrF2/TiO2 (%w/w 10/90) enhances charge separation and constant (ε′=6.844 × 106), which tends to increase transport kinetics collection efficiency DSSC by balancing dye loading recombination photoanode. The strong electrostatic shielding responsible for reduced...

Conventional dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) involving charge-transfer interfaces face charge injection losses and offsets for TiO2-sensitizer band alignment. The direct mechanism in DSSCs with catechol (CT, 1,2-benzenediol)-based compounds minimizes the eliminates alignment issues, although photovoltaic performance of corresponding device is very poor due to ultrafast (picosecond) recombination photoexcited electrons. Just as a natural photosystem, structural selectivity toward...

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have exhibited a tremendous photovoltaic performance over the past few years. However, ionic nature of perovskite and solution‐processable fabrication methods lead to various defects (vacancies, interstitials, antisites) at surface.
