We report a novel electron‐rich molecule based on 3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene (H101). When used as the hole‐transporting layer in a perovskite‐based solar cell, the power‐conversion efficiency reached 13.8 % under AM 1.5G solar simulation. This result is comparable with that obtained using the well‐known hole transporting material 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis( N , N ‐di‐ p ‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD). This is the first heterocycle‐containing material achieving >10 % efficiency in such devices, and has great potential to replace the expensive spiro‐OMeTAD given its much simpler and cheaper synthesis.
