abstract = {Printable rear electrodes represent a key enabling
technology for the upscaling of perovskite solar cells
(PSCs). Carbon electrodes are appealing candidates widely
employed in n-i-p (so-called “conventional”)
architectures, but their integration into p-i-n (so-called
“inverted”) architectures is prohibited by interfacial
energetic mismatch. We address this challenge by introducing
a tin oxide (SnOx) interlayer with desirable mechanical
durability and n-doping level. We show in detail how the
tailored interlayer converts carbon from a hole-collecting
anode to an electron-collecting cathode and how the
electron-extraction barrier is minimized, narrowing the
efficiency gap between carbon $(21.8\%)$ and silver
$(24.0\%)$ electrodes. The advancement results in a
remarkably improved viability of the PSCs: a modest drop in
efficiency is outweighed by a 3-fold improvement in
projected operational lifetime (>8,000 h) and a $60\%$
reduction in the bill of materials. These results underscore
the potential of carbon as a cost-effective alternative to
silver in the industrialization of p-i-n PSCs.},
