Description

The use of metal-halide perovskites in photovoltaic applications has becomeincreasingly attractive due to their low-temperature manufacturing processes andlong charge-carrier lifetimes. High-bandgap perovskite solar cells have potentialfor indoor applications due to their efficient absorption of the spectrum of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). This study investigates the performance of high-bandgapperovskite solar cells under a wide range of lighting conditions, including acommercially available white LED lamp with a 5–40 000 lx illuminance range anda standard 1 sun reference. The performance of CH3 NH 3PbI 3-based perovskitesolar cells to CH3 NH 3Pb(I 0.8,Br 0.2) 3 solar cells with varying electron transportlayers (ETL), including PCBM, PCBM:CMC, and CMC:ICBA fullerene combina-tions, is compared. Because the spectral response of perovskite solar cells coversthe white LED spectrum very well, the major performance difference is related tothe open-circuit voltage and fill factor. The cells with the CH3NH3Pb(I 0.8,Br0.2) 3absorber layer and the CMC:ICBA ETL demonstrate superior open-circuit voltageand therefore a high efficiency above 29% at 200–500 lx, typical for indoorlighting.
