Nanoimprinted Grating‐Embedded Perovskite Solar Cells with Improved Light Management

Abstract Organic–inorganic halide perovskite solar cells are one of the most efficient photovoltaic devices, and their power conversion efficiency (PCE) continues to grow rapidly due to the optimization of device architecture and functional materials. The involved optical design has an important impact on performance by affecting the light harvesting capability. Here, demonstrated is a simple and effective strategy to boost device performance from the perspective of light management. A diffraction grating pattern into the TiO 2 scaffold and antireflection layer is simultaneously introduced to construct a double grating design for perovskite solar cells. The grating pattern obtained using a commercial compact disk as the hard mold can modulate light transport by enhancing the light transmittance and, thus, light absorption in perovskite solar cells. The grating pattern‐induced light trapping can significantly increase the short‐circuit current density and PCE by 4.8% and 7.9%, respectively, on average. The present work develops a feasible method by tailoring the morphology‐related optical property to further improve the performance of perovskite solar cells. The double grating design can also generate structural color and can provide an alternative solution for fabricating colorful solar cells.
