Preparation and Characteristics of MAPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots on NiOx Film and Application for High Transparent Solar Cells

Abstract

In this work, a MAPbBr3 quantum dot (QD-MAPbBr3) layer was prepared by a simple and rapid method. Octylammonium bromide (OABr) gives the MAPbBr3 better exciton binding energy, good surface morphology, and stability. To form a nanocrystalline thin film on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass, the QD-MAPbBr3 film was coated by a spin-coating method in a nitrogen-filled glove box and the NiOx film was used as an adhesive layer and hole transport layer. The highest transmittance of MAPbBr3 on NiOx/ITO glass was around 75% at 700 nm. This study also reported a high transparent and perovskite bulk-free ITO/NiOx/QD-MAPbBr3/C60/Ag solar cell where the NiOx, QD-MAPbBr3, and C60 were used as a hole transport layer, active layer, and electron transport layer, respectively.
