Abstract

All-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells have attracted increasing attention due to their long-term stability. Here, all-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskites are doped with BaBr2 to improve the efficiency of perovskite solar cells. The CsPbBr3 perovskite film displays better crystallinity, higher valence band maximum (VBM) position and lower carrier recombination probability after introducing BaBr2. Hence, the electron-hole transport layer-free device with the presence of BaBr2 achieves the improvement of the efficiency and stability. In particular, the efficiency of the device enhances from 1.88% to 2.86% by optimizing the doping concentration of BaBr2. In addition, the BaBr2-doped device without encapsulation exhibits excellent performance in air with relative humidity of ~80%.
