Abstract
Combining the high stability under UV light of the wide bandgap (WBG) perovskite solar cells (pero-SCs) and the broad near-infrared absorption spectra of the narrow bandgap (NBG) organic solar cells (OSCs), the perovskite/organic tandem solar cells (TSCs) with the WBG pero-SC as front cell and the NBG OSC as rear cell have attracted attention . However, the photovoltaic performance of the perovskite/organic TSCs needs to be further improved. Herein, nonradiative charge recombination loss is reduced through bulk defect passivation in the WBG pero-SC front subcell and broadening the range of absorption spectra of the NBG OSC rear cell. For the WBG pero-SCs, an organic cation chloro-formamidinium is introduced into FA<sub>0.6</sub> MA<sub>0.4</sub> Pb(I<sub>0.6</sub> Br<sub>0.4</sub> )<sub>3</sub> to passivate the bulk defects in the perovskite film and the WBG pero-SC displays high open-circuit voltage of 1.25 V and high fill factor of 83.0%. For the NBG OSCs, a new infrared-absorbing organic small molecule acceptor BTPV-4Cl-eC9 is designed and synthesized. Then, a monolithic perovskite/organic TSC is fabricated with the WBG pero-SC as the front cell and the NBG OSC as the rear cell, and the TSC demonstrates high power conversion efficiency up to 22.0%. The results indicate that the perovskite/organic TSC is promising for future commercialization.
