[Abstract]
We introduce 1 step pin-hole free CH3NH3PbI3xClx perovskite layers by using heated airflow during the nucleation stage of the perovskite. Upon employing heated air, we stimulate uniformly distributed nuclei growth, resulting in a pin-hole free planar perovskite layer. We find an optimized heated airflow of 100 C as the optimized condition. The resulting planar device employing a conventional TiO2 electron transporting layer exhibits 17.6% average power conversion efficiency with 14.3% maximum powerpoint (MPP) efficiency. In addition, our method gives a very reproducible perovskite layer. Thus, our pin-hole free perovskite layer allows for 14.9% efficiency in a larger area device (0.71 cm2 ) that is generally prone to shunting paths.
