We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products,which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product is an enabling product used as a Hole Transport Material for high-performance solar cells and thus has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.
Synonyms: Copper thiocyanate perovskite hole transport material; Copper(I) thiocyanate perovskite hole transport material; Thiocyanic acid in diethyl sulfide
Linear Structural Formula: CuSCN
MDL Number: MFCD00010980
Application: Layers of CuSCN exhibit high hole mobility, high thermal stability, and exceptional optical transparency across the UV-Vis/NIR spectrum. CuSCN finds application as an alternative to organic hole transport materials such as PEDOT:PSS and Spiro-MeOTAD in perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs). Photovoltaic conversion efficiencies of >20% have been reported in PSCs with CuSCN [5]. In addition, compared to Spiro-OMeTAD the CuSCN-based PSCs have been shown to exhibit better thermal stability.
