PSS as an electron-blocking layer on SWNTs in perovskite SCs due to superior wettability, whereas MoO3 is not compatible owing to energy level mismatching. Diluted HNO3 (35 v/v%)-doped SWNT-based device produced the highest PCE of 6.32% among SWNT-based perovskite SCs, which is 70% of an indium tin oxide (ITO)-based device (9.05%). Its flexible application showed a PCE of 5.38% on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate.

Transparent carbon electrodes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene were used as the bottom electrode in flexible inverted perovskite solar cells. Their photovoltaic performance and mechanical resilience were compared and analyzed using various techniques. Whereas a conventional inverted perovskite solar cells using indium tin oxide showed a power conversion efficiency of 17.8%, the carbon nanotube- and graphene-based cells showed efficiencies of 12.8% and 14.2%, respectively. An established MoO<sub>3

PSS. The single-walled carbon nanotube organic solar cell in this work shows a power conversion efficiency of 6.04%. This value is 83% of the leading ITO-based device performance (7.48%). Flexible application shows 3.91% efficiency and is capable of withstanding a severe cyclic flex test.

Organic–inorganic halide perovskite solar cells have received much attention because they achieve high power conversion efficiencies while providing the advantages of thin-film solar cells, namely, solution processability and potentially low fabrication costs. However, at the current level of halide perovskite solar cell technology, these advantages cannot be maximized because of structural and material limitations. Here, we provide a solution to these problems by replacing conventional metal an

Organic solar cells are flexible and inexpensive, and expected to have a wide range of applications. Many transparent organic solar cells have been reported and their success hinges on full transparency and high power conversion efficiency. Recently, carbon nanotubes and graphene, which meet these criteria, have been used in transparent conductive electrodes. However, their use in top electrodes has been limited by mechanical difficulties in fabrication and doping. Here, expensive metal top elec

Abstract Herein, non‐fullerene acceptor‐based organic photodiodes are compared with fullerene acceptor‐based organic photodiodes. The non‐fullerene acceptor, ethylhexyl‐rhodanine‐benzothiadiazole‐coupled indacenodithiophene ( eh ‐IDTBR)‐based organic photodiodes show a higher detectivity (1.61 × 10 13 cm Hz 1/2 W −1 ) and a faster response time ( ≈ 2.7 µs) than the fullerene acceptor, [6,6]‐phenyl C 71 butyric acid methyl ester (PC 71 BM)‐based organic photodiodes (3.25 × 10 12 cm Hz 1/2 W −1 an

Grain size control and boundary passivation of perovskite films are the key to obtaining efficient perovskite solar cells.

This communication reports the discovery of an effective and long-lasting p-type dopant polymeric acid for transparent carbon electrodes.

Polymers or polymeric materials are used as additives for promoting the nucleation and crystallization of perovskite films to increase the crystal grain size. Due to their high molecular weight, polymers remain within perovskite‐crystal grain boundaries (GBs), where they passivate trap sites. Furthermore, some polymers function as charge‐transport materials in interfacial layers to effectively separate charge carriers and reduce charge recombination. Certain hydrophobic polymers protect perovski

Abstract The floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition (FCCVD) method for producing single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has demonstrated great potential in transparent conductive film (TCF) application. In FCCVD, reducing the concentration of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a well‐agreed method of improving the conductivity of SWNT TCF, achieved by producing thinner and longer CNT bundles. However, this method decreases the yield dramatically, which has persisted throughout the TCF development.

In modern society, photodetectors (PDs) have permeated virtually all areas of human life, from home appliances to space exploration. This versatility generates a high demand for photodetectors. It is attributed to their ability to detect signals spanning a broad spectrum of wavelengths while possessing advantageous mechanical properties such as light weight, flexibility, and low cost. Metal halide perovskites (PSKs) have recently emerged as effective photodetectors because their detection range

Abstract Fullerene‐based n‐type charge‐collecting materials have emerged as a solution for high‐performance perovskite solar cells. However, their application to perovskite solar cells is limited in the device architecture and only a small amount of fullerene additives have been introduced to the device system, because of the immiscibility of the fullerene species with polar solvents. To overcome this, triethylene glycol monomethyl ether chain‐attached fullerene derivatives are synthesized and a

Abstract Despite high‐efficiency and low production cost, material toxicity of lead‐containing metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has been considered a major challenge towards its practical commercialization and widespread applications. With forefront efforts to develop alternative Pb‐free compositions, there have been increasing research efforts in recent years to mitigate the toxicity of Pb in PSCs. Herein, we review the key technologies for mitigating the toxicity of Pb in PSCs. First
