Transparent conductive substrate for perovskite cells

Which conductive oxide is used in inverted perovskite solar cells?

Influence of the Transparent Conductive Oxide Type on the Performance of Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells In inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs), indium tin oxide (ITO) is the most commonly used transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer for coating glass substrates. However, the preference for the ITO has never been clearly stated.

Are transparent conducting electrodes a limiting factor in perovskite/silicon tandem cell scalability?

Indium-based transparent conducting electrodes (TCEs) are a major limiting factor in perovskite/silicon tandem cell scalability, while also limiting maximum cell efficiencies. In this work, we propose a novel TCE based on electrostatically doped graphene monolayers to circumvent these challenges.

Are transparent conductive substrates flexible for solar cells?

However, frangible indium tin oxide-based transparent conductive substrates severely limit the flexibility of solar cells. Herein, we develop a flexible transparent conductive substrate of silver nanowires semi-embedded in colorless polyimide (denoted as AgNWs/cPI) via a simple and effective substrate transfer method.

Can flexible perovskite solar cells be made on transparent nanocellulose paper?

A team of Chinese scientists led by Prof Wei Huang from Institute of Advanced Materials, Nanjing Tech University fabricate flexible perovskite solar cells on transparent nanocellulose paper.

What is a transparent conductive oxide (PSC)?

Most PSCs are built on transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) such as fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) or indium tin oxide (ITO), which are costly and rigid. Therefore, it is significant to explore alternative materials as the transparent electrode of PSCs.

Can perovskite solar cells replace silicon-based solar cells?

Recently perovskite solar cells (PSCs), as photoelectric conversion devices, exhibit excellent power conversion efficiency (PCE) and low-processing cost, and have become one of the most promising devices to replace conventional silicon-based solar cells and address current pressing energy issues.
