Surface Treatment Agent for High Quality Sn-Pb Perovskite Thin Films
Maltol, known as a flavor enhancer, has a bidentate chelating site. Because of the noteworthy metal chelating ability of maltol, a fabrication method of high-quality Sn-Pb perovskite thin films by surface treatment with maltol solution was reported. 1) Sn-Pb perovskite has attracted attention as a promising material for solar cells with the near-infrared band gap, however the defects caused by oxidation of Sn(II) degrade performance.2) On the other hand, maltol forms a stable complex with Sn(II), which suppresses oxidation of Sn(II) and reduces the density of defects at the perovskite film surface. Maltol-treated Sn-Pb perovskite thin film showed a long photoluminescence lifetime of 7.4 μs compared to 3.7 μs for untreated films in terms of time-resolved fluorescence measurement. The high-power conversion efficiency of 21.4% (JSC = 33.1 mA/cm2, VOC = 0.82 V, FF = 0.79) was achieved for these maltol-treated perovskite solar cells.
