Abstract

Vacuum-deposited perovskites provide a more direct path to manufacturing large area solar cells because of ready compatibility with multilayered architectures and historic use in the electronics industry. However, vacuum compatible co-deposition of organic-inorganic perovskites remains difficult due to issues of precisely controlling the organic precursor flux. Here, we demonstrate a manufacturing prototype specifically designed for co-depositing organic-inorganic perovskites and evaluate it with respect to the influence of process parameters on film growth. Through depositing and characterizing methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) perovskite films, we highlight the necessary design requirements while measuring the influence of film growth parameters on deposition rate and perovskite phases.
