We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to enabling category of greener alternatives, and has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

  • SHT-263S is a state-of-art, hole-transport material (Spiro-MeOTAD) for perovskite solar cells.
  • SHT-263S offers high purity with modest cost.
  • Together with the highest grade Spiro-MeOTAD, SHT-263 (902500) which has a purity of ≥99.9% (HPLC), these two trade-marked products provide high material purity, low-solvent residual, batch-to-batch consistency, and offer trusted high-performance in devices.

Planar perovskite solar cells (PSCs) made entirely via solution processing at low temperatures (<150°C) offer promise for simple manufacturing, compatibility with flexible substrates, and perovskite-based tandem devices. However, these PSCs require an electron-selective layer that performs well with similar processing.

Despite the impressive photovoltaic performances with power conversion efficiency beyond 22%, perovskite solar cells are poorly stable under operation, failing by far the market requirements. Various technological approaches have been proposed to overcome the instability problem, which, while delivering appreciable

Following pioneering work, solution-processable organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites-such as CH3NH3PbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I)-have attracted attention as light-harvesting materials for mesoscopic solar cells. So far, the perovskite pigment has been deposited in a single step onto mesoporous metal oxide films
