Abstract

Abstract Tin perovskite is rising as a promising candidate to address the toxicity and theoretical efficiency limitation of lead perovskite. However, the voltage and efficiency of tin perovskite solar cells are much lower than lead counterparts. Herein, indene-C 60 bisadduct with higher energy level is utilized as an electron transporting material for tin perovskite solar cells. It suppresses carrier concentration increase caused by remote doping, which significantly reduces interface carriers recombination. Moreover, indene-C 60 bisadduct increases the maximum attainable photovoltage of the device. As a result, the use of indene-C 60 bisadduct brings unprecedentedly high voltage of 0.94 V, which is over 50%…
