Role of Ionic Liquids in Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract

Although the power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has reached 25.7%, there is still great potential for improvement in their performance and stability. In the past few years, ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively investigated and demonstrated to enhance the efficiency and stability of devices substantially. Herein, the role of ILs in PSCs as additives, solvents, interface engineering, and charge transport layer is reviewed. Also, this review will guide the researchers in understanding bulk doping and interface engineering for efficient and stable PSCs.
