Here, we report the processing of efficient and relatively stable perovskite solar cells with both conventional and inverted structures using simple and low temperature solution-process buffer layers. Pure or copper-doped nickel oxide (NiO or NiO:Cu) and zinc oxide (ZnO) or niobium-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2:Nb) films were used as a hole transport layer (HTL) and electron transport layers (ETL), respectively. By using alcohols with different boiling points as solvents for the buffer layers, they can be used for all type of processing tools such as spin coating, slot-dye or Roll to Roll printers. The electrical conductivity of the buffer layers are sufficient enough giving the possibility to use them within different thicknesses leading to optimizing the optical cavity of full device. As photo-active layer, smooth and pinhole-free perovskite absorbing layers ware fabricated by anti-solvent method on rigid Glass/ITO substrates. This results can lead to fully solution-processed perovskite solar cells reducing manufacturing cost and high processing speed.
