Interfacial engineering has long been a vital means of improving thin-film device performance, especially for organic electronics, perovskites, and hybrid devices. It greatly facilitates the fabrication performance solution-processed devices, including field effect transistors (OFETs), solar cells (OSCs), perovskite (PVSCs), light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, due to limitation traditional interfacial materials, further progress these devices is hampered particularly in terms stability, flexibility, sensitivity. The deadlock gradually broken through development self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which possess distinct benefits transparency, diversity, sensitivity, selectivity, surface passivation ability. In this review, we first showed evolution SAMs, elucidating their working mechanisms structure–property relationships by assessing wide range SAM materials reported date. A comprehensive comparison various growth, fabrication, characterization methods was presented help readers interested applying works. Moreover, recent design applications mainstream electronic OFETs, OSCs, PVSCs OLEDs, summarized. Finally, an outlook prospects section summarizes major challenges SAMs used

Abstract Solar cells (SCs) are the most ubiquitous and reliable energy generation systems for aerospace applications. Nowadays, III–V multijunction solar (MJSCs) represent standard commercial technology powering spacecraft, thanks to their high‐power conversion efficiency certified reliability/stability while operating in orbit. Nevertheless, spacecraft companies still using cheaper Si‐based SCs amortize launching costs of satellites. Moreover, recent years, new technologies based on Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS) perovskite (PSCs) have emerged as promising candidates power systems, because appealing properties such lightweightness, flexibility, cost‐effective manufacturing, exceptional radiation resistance. In this review current advancements future challenges applications critically discussed. particular, each type SC, a description device's architecture, summary its performance, quantitative assessment resistance presented. Finally, considering high potential that 2D‐materials (such graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, carbides, nitrides, carbonitrides) improving both performance stability SCs, brief overview some important results concerning influence 2D materials‐based devices monolayer materials is also included.

Revealing Steric‐Hindrance‐Dependent Buried Interface Defect Passivation Mechanism in Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells with Mitigated Tensile Stress

Advanced Functional Materials, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 32(36)

Abstract Interface engineering is one feasible and effective approach to minimize the interfacial nonradiative recombination stemming from defects, residual stress, energy level mismatch. Herein, a novel steric‐hindrance‐dependent buried interface defect passivation stress release strategy reported, which implemented by adopting series of adamantane derivative molecules functionalized with CO (i.e., 2‐adamantanone (AD), 1‐adamantane carboxylic acid (ADCA), 1‐adamantaneacetic (ADAA)) modify SnO 2 /perovskite interface. All modifiers play role in passivating mitigating strain, enhancing device performance. The steric hindrance chemical interaction between these perovskites as well determined distance bulky ring, gradually decreases AD, ADCA, ADAA. experimental theoretical evidences together confirmed effect strength. strength, effect, thus performance are negatively correlated hindrance. Consequently, ADAA‐modified achieves seductive efficiency up 23.18%. unencapsulated devices ADAA maintain 81% its initial after aging at 60 °C for 1000 h.
