Fluorine plasma treatment on carbon-based perovskite solar cells for rapid moisture protection layer formation and performance enhancement

Abstract

A fluorine plasma-treated carbon electrode is used in HTM-free perovskite solar cells for high efficiency and moisture resistance. The fluorine-treated device with a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.86% is achieved with a highly enhanced FF (FF = 0.69), showing superior long-term stability and excellent moisture penetration suppression.
