In summary, we have presented the different roles of self-assembled monolayers in state-of-the-art organic solar cells. SAMs have exhibited the potential as an alternative to commonly used electron and hole transport layers such as ZnO and PEDOT:PSS for high-performing organic solar cells.
The abbreviations for polymer solar cells and self-assembled monolayers have been updated to “PSCs” and “SAMs” respectively.]
Self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-based hole-transport layers (HTLs) have become a popular option for perovskite solar cells due gto their numerous advantages. In the future, we expect that the following points can be deeply studied to advance their scalable applications.
Although SAM materials have achieved good results in solar cells, there is still significant room for improvement in stability, especially in characterization methods, which will be the focus of future research on SAM materials.
