Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted extensive attentions due to their high-efficiency, simple preparation process and low-cost. The efficiency of the PSCs has increased from 3.8% to 25.7%. So far, more and more studies focus on n-i-p structured PSCs using SnO2 as electron transport layer. However, its process reproducibility is relatively poor, and efficiency is still low. This report conducted a systematic study of planar n-i-p PSCs, mainly including the selection of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass, optimization of preparation parameters and the influence of storage conditions on device performance. Experimental results show that these parameters have an important impact on the device performance. At the same time, it was analyzed by scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, absorption spectrum. The devices achieved an average efficiency of 21.85% and a highest efficiency of 23.47% with good reproducibility under the optimal conditions (Indium Tin oxide substrate, PbI2 annealed at 70 ℃ for 1 min, standing time after dropping amine salt solution is less than 5 s, and stored in 4.5% humidity environment). This work provides scientific support for the preparation of high-efficiency and repeatable PSCs.
