Abstract

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have developed rapidly over the past few years, and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs has exceeded 25%. It has the characteristics of low cost, high efficiency, simple process and so on, and hence has a good development prospect. Due to the difference in electrons and holes diffusion lengths, electron transporting materials (ETMs) play a crucial role in the performance of PSCs. ZnO electron transport layer (ETL) has the advantages of high electron mobility, high transmittance, suitable energy level matching with neighbor layer in PSCs, low temperature preparation and environmental friendliness, so it has become the main application material of electron transport layer in perovskite solar cells. In this review, the application of ZnO-ETMs in PSCs in recent years is reviewed, and the effect of ZnO-ETMs on the performance of PSCs is also introduced. Finally, the limitations of ZnO-ETMs based PSCs and the methods to solve these problems are discussed, and the development prospect of PSCs is prospected.
