Abstract for Presentation

Fabrication of Large-area Perovskite Solar Cells

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have drawn great attention due to their excellent photoelectric properties, high power conversion efficiency (PCE) and low manufactory cost. Although efficiencies have reached above 25%,[1] the scalable fabrication of large area high-efficiency and stable perovskite solar modules is still the major obstacle for their commercialization. The challenge is to fabricate large-area high-quality dense perovskite films. Since the nucleation and crystal growth behaviors of the perovskite is undesignable and hard to control, it is generally to achieve a porous film with dendrites. Here, we have tried to fabricate large-area high-quality perovskite films by various approaches, from lab-scale spin-coating to scalable coating methods, including two-step blading and one step slot-die coating. With study on the nucleation and crystal growth of perovskites, efficient mini-module with efficiency above 20% is achieved.[2]
