ABSTRACT
Fullerene-based derivatives are frequently used as electron transport materials (ETMs) and interface buffers for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to their excellent properties, including high electron affinity and mobility, low recombination energy, tunable energy levels, and solution processability. However, significant challenges arise because fullerene derivatives tend to aggregate and dimerize, which reduces exciton dissociation and charge transport capacity. Additionally, their chemical compatibility with perovskite absorbers facilitates halide diffusion and degradation of PSCs. This overlap causes delamination and dissolution during device fabrication, hindering the performance enhancement of fullerene-based PSCs. To address these issues, researchers have developed cross-linkable fullerene materials. These materials have been shown to not only significantly improve the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs but also effectively enhance the device stability. In this review, we summarized recent research progress on cross-linkable fullerene derivatives as ETMs for PSCs. We systematically analyze the impact of these cross-linked ETMs on device performance and long-term stability, focusing on their molecular structures and working mechanisms. Finally, we discuss the future challenges that need to be overcome to advance the application of cross-linkable fullerene materials in PSCs.
