摘要
The electron transporting layer (ETL) plays a vital role in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). We have demonstrated the synthesis of ruthenium doped mesoporous TiO2 (Ru-TiO2) and their utility as ETLs for PSCs. The doping effects of Ru4+ on the electronic and photovoltaic properties of mesoporous TiO2 (mp-TiO2) have been investigated as well. The highest PCE of 18.94% was obtained with 0.1 M Ru-TiO2 PSCs exhibiting an open circuit voltage (V-OC) of 1.128 V, current density (J(SC)) of 22.55 mA cm(-2), and fill factor (FF) of 76.55%, whereas the conventional mesoporous PSCs showed PCE = 16.80%, V-OC = 1.095 V, J(SC) = 21.50 mA cm(-2), and FF = 70.01%. Note that the 0.1 M Ru-TiO2 device shows high PCE with negligible hysteresis index, high reproducibility and more stability as compared to conventional mesoporous PSCs.
