The recombination of charge carriers at the interface between carrier transport layers such as nickel oxide (NiOx) and the perovskite absorber has long been a challenge in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). To address this issue, we introduced a polymer additive poly(vinyl butyral) into NiOx and subjected it to high-temperature annealing to form a void-containing structure. The formation of voids is confirmed to increase light transmittance and surface area of NiOx, which is beneficial for light absorption and carrier separation within PSCs. Experimental results demonstrate that the incorporation of the polymer additive helped to enhance the hole conductivity and carrier extraction of NiOx with a higher Ni3+/Ni2+ ratio. This also optimized the energy levels of NiOx to match with the perovskite to raise the open-circuit voltage to 1.01 V. By incorporating an additional NiOx layer beneath the polymer-modified NiOx, the device efficiency was further increased as verified from the dark current measurement of devices. |
