Abstract: | "Compared with organic-inorganic perovskites, all-inorganic cesium-based perovskites without volatile organic compounds have gained extensive interests because of the high thermal stability. However, they have a problem on phase transition from cubic phase (active for photo-electric conversion) to orthorhombic phase (inactive for photo-electric conversion) at room temperature, which has hindered further progress. Herein, novel inorganic CsPb(1-x) Ge(x) I(2) Br perovskites were prepared in humid ambient atmosphere without a glovebox. The phase stability of the all-inorganic perovskite was effectively enhanced after germanium addition. In addition, the highest power conversion efficiency of 10.8 % with high open-circuit voltage (V(OC) ) of 1.27 V in a planar solar cell based on CsPb(0.8) Ge(0.2) I(2) Br perovskite was achieved. Furthermore, the highest V(OC) up to 1.34 V was obtained by CsPb(0.7) Ge(0.3) I(2) Br perovskite, which is a remarkable record in the field of all-inorganic perovskite solar cells. More importantly, all the photovoltaic parameters of CsPb(0.8) Ge(0.2) I(2) Br perovskite solar cells showed nearly no decay after 7 h measurement in 50-60 % relative humidity without encapsulation" |
