Here, we report an origin of loss in open circuit voltage (Vac) in perovskite solar cells due to the possible trap-assisted recombination within the widely used TiO2 compact layer (CL) and at its interface with FTO substrate. A thin layer (TL) of MgO was employed to investigate the recombination mechanism. MgO in place of TiO2 CL (50-60 nm) enhances V-oc of the cell significantly while the MgO layer coated on TiO2 CL (TiO2-MgO bilayer) does not change the V-oc much. In combination with open-circuit voltage decay (OCVD) measurements, we reveal that recombination at FTO/TiO2 interface is a major factor regulating the voltage and efficiency of TiO2-based perovskite solar cells.
