Abstract

We report photovoltaic performances of all-solid state Sn/Pb halide-based perovskite solar cells. The cell has the following composition: F-doped SnO2 layered glass/compact titania layer/porous titania layer/CH3NH3SnxPb(1-x)I3/regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl). Sn halide perovskite itself did not show photovoltaic properties. Photovoltaic properties were observed when PbI2 was added in SnI2. The best performance was obtained by using CH3NH3Sn0.5Pb0.5I3 perovskite. 4.18% efficiency with open circuit voltage 0.42 V, fill factor 0.50, and short circuit current 20.04 mA/cm(2) are reported. The edge of the incident photon to current efficiency curve reached 1060 nm, which was 260 nm red-shifted compared…
