Abstract
Over the last decade, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have made unheard-of strides in increasing power conversion efficiency, making them one of the most promising photovoltaic technologies. However, many obstacles remain to overcome before PSCs can be commercialized, including lead toxicity and the stability problem. It has been discovered that the 2D material MXene, composed of transition metal carbides or nitrides, has a high surface area and excellent electrical conductivity. This material has shown promise for electron and hole transport in PSCs. The main points of the review paper stress the importance of MXene in acting as an electron transport layer and a hole transport layer. It is strongly suggested that MXene can be used in PSCs to achieve the best possible performance levels. It has been demonstrated that MXene can significantly improve the effectiveness and stability of these devices by taking advantage of its unique qualities. MXene is, therefore, probably going to continue to be a strong contender in creating high-performance solar cells in the future. In general, the review paper emphasizes the expanding potential and interest of MXene in energy materials, particularly in solar cells and other renewable energy technologies. MXenes may become more significant as this field of study develops, contributing to creating effective and long-lasting energy solutions.
