“…[50] By utilizing slot-die-coating to deposit the SnO 2 layer, PSCs with moderate PCEs over 17% and 13% for small-area devices and mini-modules, respectively, have been reported. [162][163][164] Whitaker et al [162] fabricated PSCs with a PCE close to 18%, and Di Giacomo et al [165] scaled this method, fabricating mini-modules (aperture area of 144 cm 2 ) with a PCE of 13.8%, in which both groups employed SnO 2 NPs dispersed in alcohol or water solutions as ink formulations. At present, rather than the incapability of slot-die-processed SnO 2 ESLs, the main reason behind this PCE gap between small and large-area devices is arguably the lack of efficient, low-cost, and Images for "Spin-coating", "Spray-coating", "Slot-die coating", "Blade coating", and "Chemical bath deposition": Reproduced with permission.…”

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have become a promising photovoltaic (PV) technology, where the evolution of the electron‐selective layers (ESLs), an integral part of any PV device, has played a distinctive role to their progress. To date, the mesoporous titanium dioxide (TiO2)/compact TiO2 stack has been among the most used ESLs in state‐of‐the‐art PSCs. However, this material requires high‐temperature sintering and may induce hysteresis under operational conditions, raising concerns about its use toward commercialization. Recently, tin oxide (SnO2) has emerged as an attractive alternative ESL, thanks to its wide bandgap, high optical transmission, high carrier mobility, suitable band alignment with perovskites, and decent chemical stability. Additionally, its low‐temperature processability enables compatibility with temperature‐sensitive substrates, and thus flexible devices and tandem solar cells. Here, the notable developments of SnO2 as a perovskite‐relevant ESL are reviewed with emphasis placed on the various fabrication methods and interfacial passivation routes toward champion solar cells with high stability. Further, a techno‐economic analysis of SnO2 materials for large‐scale deployment, together with a processing‐toxicology assessment, is presented. Finally, a perspective on how SnO2 materials can be instrumental in successful large‐scale module and perovskite‐based tandem solar cell manufacturing is provided.

“…Not only for PVK film formation, but deposition of CTLs can be also realized with slot-die coating. All-slot-die coating devices with PCEs around 11% have been successfully fabricated [75][76][77] . Among all-slot-die coating works, Di Giacomo et al 78 in Solliance fabricated PVK solar modules; the highest PCE exceeded 10% with a power output of 1.7 W for an area of 168.75 cm 2 .…”

“…Slot-die coating was developed and extensively studied as the promising scale-up, roll-to-roll production coating method for PSCs (Figure 7c). [538][539][540] For slot-die coating, the material ink flows through the inner space of the blade and is deposited on the substrate, greatly reducing the exposure of materials to ambient atmosphere prior to deposition. [541,542] One of the main issues with slot-die coating is the morphology inconsistency of the deposited film that can generate defects which are detrimental to the performance of PSCs.…”

A Perspective on the Commercial Viability of Perovskite Solar Cells

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received a large amount of research funds due to their potential as a frontrunner in a new generation of solar cells; consequently, the desire to commercialize this technology is mounting. In this roadmap, the knowledge and the technological gaps between laboratory and industry are critically analyzed from the perspective of 5S criteria (Stability, Safety, Sustainability, Scalability, and Storage). To avoid any favoritism in the arguments toward commercializing this technology, herein, the average parameters of PSCs (photoconversion efficiency, durability, cost, manufacturability, and sustainability) estimated from previous studies are analyzed and discussed. Unique opportunities for PSCs in their current stage of achievements are identified, where application‐driven, instead of performance‐driven, developments are shown to favor their commercialization. Efforts required to improve the average performance of PSCs to state‐of‐the‐art levels are also identified and discussed.
