Here, we discovered a low-cost self-assembled monolayer (SAM) hole-selective transport material known as 2PACz ( [2- (9H-carbazol-9-yl) ethyl] phosphonic acid) with phosphate groups to form c-Si solar cells for the first time. The ultrathin film of 2PACz with phosphate groups can establish strong and stable P–O–Si bonds on the silicon surface.
Polymer solar cell (PSC) has been developed vastly in the past decade due to the advantages of low cost, lightweight, mechanical flexibility, versatility of chemical design and synthesis, semitransparency, and solution processing.

Joule Comprehensive Summary Inverted (p-i-n) perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are favored by researchers owing to their superior compatibility with flexible substrates and tandem device fabrication. Additio...
Perovskite solar cell devices were fabricated with an Au/Sprio-OMeTAD/Perovskite/SnO 2 /ITO structure. First, a glass substrate with indium tin oxide (ITO) was cleaned by sonication and rinsing in distilled water, acetone, and isopropanol. After drying using N 2, the substrate was treated using UV-Ozone for 15 min.
This strategy has been successful in silicon solar cells, where a tunneling layer is applied between the lightly-doped silicon substrate and a heavily-doped polysilicon or indium tin oxide (ITO) layer, utilizing a thin insulating layer such as silicon dioxide.
