Özet:
Perovskite photovoltaics is a promising technology due to its low-cost fabrication and high efficiency. Since their first demonstration in 2009, efficiencies of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) increased unprecedently fast from 3.81% to 25.2% in 10 years. The most common method for the deposition of the absorber layer of the perovskite solar cells is the spin-coating method, which is not a scalable method, and this method is an obstacle to their commercialization. Efficiencies obtained with scalable methods are currently lower than that of the spin-coating method. In this thesis, among the scalable deposition methods, a novel ultrasonic spray-coating was used by adding antisolvent vapor to the system. The antisolvent quenching technique, that is commonly used to improve the crystalline quality of the film by spin-coating was successfully adapted for ultrasonic spray coating. The interaction between diethyl ether (DE) vapor, which is used as an antisolvent, and MAPb(I(3-x)Brx)3 precursor solution (where the solvent is DMF:DMSO, 4:1) was utilized to improve the crystalline quality of the perovskite film. As a result of this interaction, the intermediate phase was observed. The transition to the intermediate phase is supported by data from characterization methods such as optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), and current-voltage measurement. Furthermore, n-i-p devices with the FTO/c-TiO2/m-TiO2/MAPb(I(1-x)Brx)3/Spiro-OMeTAD architecture were produced with different antisolvent vapors and their efficiencies was compared. It was observed that devices using DE vapor reach higher efficiencies than devices without any antisolvent vapor.
