Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the stabilization of heterojunction solar cells through a modified hole transport layer.
  • Utilized dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to treat the hole transport layer of the cells.
  • Conducted efficiency and stability assessments of the treated solar cells.
  • Compared performance metrics against untreated cells.
  • DMSO treatment resulted in enhanced cell stability over extended periods.
  • Significant improvements in efficiency were observed in treated solar cells compared to controls.
  • The findings suggest that DMSO effectively improves the performance and longevity of heterojunction solar cells.

Abstract

Heterojunction solar cells (HSCs) have gained attention in the field of renewable energy for their potential of combining the benefits of both crystalline silicon and thin-film technologies, thus offering high...
