Abstract
All-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite quantum dots (QDs) offer higher efficiency and better mechanical stability than other quantum dot materials for photovoltaic applications. This paper demonstrates a hybrid interfacial architecture (HIA) using a CsPbI3 QD/PCBM heterojunction, creating an energy cascade for efficient charge transfer and improved mechanical adhesion. A champion CsPbI3 QD solar cell achieved 15.1% efficiency (stabilized power output of 14.61%), among the highest reported. Flexible quantum dot photovoltaics using this strategy reached 12.3% efficiency.
