Abstract

Inverted planar heterojunction solar cells (iPHSCs) were fabricated with novel spiro-bifluorene (CF-Sp-BTh) based hole transport material (HTM) and graphene oxide (GO) modified perovskite (CH₃NH₃PbI₃) as sensitizer. CF-Sp-BTh exhibited relatively high hole mobility and favorable HOMO level with respect to the valence band of CH₃NH₃PbI₃. iPHSC using CF-Sp-BTh HTM and GO (0.5 wt%)-CH₃NH₃PbI₃ achieved the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ∼14.28%, with open circuit voltage (V_OC) of ∼1.07 V and a short circuit current density (J_SC) of ∼18.82 mA/cm². The photovoltaic performance of FTO/CF-Sp-BTh/GO (0.5 wt%)-CH₃NH₃PbI₃/PC₆₁BM/Au was higher compared to pristine CH₃NH₃PbI₃ and other GO-CH₃NH₃PbI₃ hybrid based devices. The photoluminescence decay and electrochemical impedance spectra confirmed an enhanced charge separation and retarded charge recombination of GO-CH₃NH₃PbI₃ hybrid based iPHSCs.
