Near-infrared (NIR) transparent inverted all-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are excellent top cell candidates in tandem applications. An essential challenge is the replacement of metal contacts with transparent conductive oxide (TCO) electrodes, which requires the introduction of a buffer layer to prevent sputtering damage. In this study, we show that the conventional buffers (i.e., small organic molecules and atomic layer deposited metal oxides) used for organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites are not applicable to all-inorganic perovskites, due to non-uniform coverage of the vulnerable layers underneath, deterioration upon ion bombardment and moisture induced perovskite phase transition. A thin film of metal oxide nanoparticles by the spin-coating method serves as a non-destructive buffer layer for inorganic PSCs. All-inorganic inverted near-infrared-transparent PSCs deliver a PCE of 17.46% and an average transmittance of 73.7% between 780 and 1200 nm. In combination with an 18.56% Cu(In,Ga)Se2 bottom cell, we further demonstrate the first all-inorganic perovskite/CIGS 4-T tandem solar cell with a PCE of 24.75%, which exhibits excellent illumination stability by maintaining 86.7% of its initial efficiency after 1400 h. The non-destructive buffer lays the foundation for efficient and stable NIR-transparent inverted inorganic perovskite solar cells and perovskite-based tandems.
