Abstract

Despite hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have reached a rapid improvement in solar cell efficiency. The long-term operational stability of PSCs is still under course of development. Here, we investigated the infiltration effects of Ag+ into the adjacent hole transporting layer...
