摘要

Large-area, high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted intensive interest for their carbon neutrality. Specifically, semitransparent PSCs have a unique advantage for use in vehicles, buildings, and agriculture. In the inner structure, a layer of tin-doped indium oxide (In2O3:Sn, ITO) film with high electrical conductivity and transparency is used as the transparent electrode for semitransparent PSCs. Among various methods, magnetron sputtering is considered the best choice for the deposition of a large-area ITO layer during the many processes in PSC production. In this work, we used direct-current magnetron sputtering to deposit ITO films. By varying the sputtering pressure, we obtained the optimal parameters for film production. The ITO film showed low sheet resistance (30–42 Ω/sq), low resistivity (5.18 × 10−4 Ω·cm), high carrier concentration (5.94 × 1021 /cm3), and high mobility (23.89 cm2/V·s). On this basis, we further prepared large-area semitransparent PSCs, demonstrating power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.90%, with a large active area of 64.8 cm2, which is highly competitive among current semitransparent PSCs (ST-PSCs).
