  • Patent number: 12202783
    Abstract: A method for obtaining a salt with a general formula: RxNI, wherein: RxN is an organic cation (RxN+), R represents substituents (R—) independently selected from a group consisting of organic substituents: R1—, R2—, R3— and hydrogen (H—), x is a number of the substituents R— directly linked with the nitrogen (N) atom in the organic cation RxN+, wherein x is 3 or 4, I is an iodide anion (I?). The method comprises: preparing a reaction mixture comprising the steps of: synthesizing hydrogen iodide (HI) in situ by mixing molecular iodine (I2) with formic acid (COOH) in a molar ratio of molecular iodine (I2): formic acid (COOH) of no less than 1.01:1, in a solvent medium, introducing into the solvent medium a compound being a donor of organic cation RxN+ in an amount providing the molar ratio of the donor of organic cation RxN+: molecular iodine (I2) of no less than 1.01:1, and maintaining the reaction mixture at a temperature of not less than 20° C.

  • Patent number: 10665800
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a solid solar cells, including the steps of providing a hole collector layer, applying a conductive layer onto the hole collector layer, applying an electron blocking layer onto the conductive layer, applying a sensitizer layer onto the electron blocking layer, applying a hole blocking layer onto the sensitizer layer, and providing a current collector and/or a metal layer or a conductor. The sensitizer layer including an organic-inorganic perovskite is applied by co-deposition of one or more sublimated divalent or trivalent salts and of one or more sublimated organic ammonium salts to obtain the organic-inorganic perovskite. The invention also relates to solid state solar cells, wherein the charge flow is inverted compared to the charge flow in a solar cell of conventional architecture and/or obtained by the above method.
