Abstract:To date, perovskite solar cells (pero-SCs) with doped2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene(Spiro-OMeTAD) hole transporting layers (HTLs) have shown the highest recordedpower conversion efficiencies (PCEs). However, their commercialization is still impeded by poor device stability owing to the hygroscopic lithiumbis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imideand volatile4-tert-butylpyridinedopants as well as time-consuming oxidation in air.In this study,we explored aseries of single-componentiodonium initiatorswith strong oxidability and different electron delocalization properties to precisely manipulate the oxidation states of Spiro-OMeTAD without air assistance, and theoxidation mechanism was clearly understood.Iodine(III)in the diphenyliodonium cation (IP+) can accept a single electron from Spiro-OMeTAD and forms Spiro-OMeTAD•+owing to its strong oxidability. Moreover, because of the coordination of the strongly delocalized TFSI-with Spiro-OMeTAD•+in a stable radical complex,the resulting hole mobility was 30 times higher than that of pristine Spiro-OMeTAD. In addition, theIP-TFSI initiatorfacilitated the growth of a homogeneous and pinhole-free Spiro-OMeTAD film.Thepero-SCsbased on this oxidizing HTL showed excellent efficiencies of 25.16% (certified: 24.85% for 0.062-cm2) and 20.71% for a 15.03-cm2module as well as remarkable overall stability.
