Abstract

Flexible perovskite solar cells (F-PSCs) have been developing fast with the power conversion efficiency (PCE) exceeding 19%. However, aiming at the high-efficiency F-PSCs, to get a desired perovskite morphology before and after glass-supportive device transfer is still a challenge. Herein, we thoroughly investigated the effect of adhesive materials of substrates on the perovskite film and the solar cell performance and developed a nondestructive F-PSC transfer method by introducing a double-side tape/protective film/epoxy binder. This nondestructive transfer strategy leads to a uniform morphology of perovskites, even after transfer process, yielding an enhanced PCE up to 16.55%.
