Abstract

In this letter, we report on nanostructured NiO_x with particle size ∼85 nm as an efficient hole transport material (HTM) for low temperature processed inverted planar perovskite solar cell (PSC) with power conversion efficiency of 15.64%. The homogenous NiO_x HTM layer facilitated the growth of high quality CH₃NH₃PbI₃ absorber with large crystal grains and the resulting PSC showed stable photovoltaic performance under continuous illumination.
