General description

4-(1′,5′-Dihydro-1′-methyl-2′H-[5,6]fullereno-C60-Ih-[1,9-c]pyrrol-2′-yl)benzoic acid (C60-SAM) is a fullerene based self-assembled monolayer that can be used to functionalize the oxide surface for the formation electron selective layer (ECL). It can act as a good electron donor with a high electron affinity. It enhances the overall efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by reducing the hysteresis.

Application

Fullerene-based self-assembled monolayers for use in organic electronic devices such as inverted polymer solar cells and perovskite−polymer hybrid solar cells.

A plethora of solution-processed materials have been developed for solar cell applications. Hybrid solar cells based on light absorbing semiconducting polymers infiltrated into mesoporous TiO2 are an interesting concept, but generating charge at the polymer-metal oxide heterojunction is challenging.
