General description

Formamidine acetate salt is an organic compound commonly used as a reagent in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds.

Application

Formamidine acetate salt is widely used in the preparation of formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI3) perovskites for perovskite solar cells. It is also used in the synthesis of formamidinium lead bromide nanocrystals for use as emitters in display applications.

Herein, we successfully applied a facile in-situ solid-state synthesis of conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) as a HTM, directly on top of the perovskite layer, in conventional mesoscopic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) (n-i-p structure). The fabrication of the PEDOT film only
