| Guide This review gives an overview of the latest advances in dopant-free hole transporting materials (HTMs) for perovskite solar cells and discusses the new molecular design strategies towards efficient and stable dopant-free HTMs. |

Abstract Continuous success has been achieved for solution-processed inorganic-organic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) in the past several years, in which organic charge transporting materials play an important role. At present, most of the commonly used hole-transporting materials (HTMs) such as spiro-OMeTAD derivatives for PVSCs require additional chemical doping process to ensure sufficient conductivity and shift the Fermi level towards the HOMO level for efficient hole transport and collection. However, this doping process not only increases the complexity and cost of device fabrication, but also decreases the device stability. Thus development of efficient dopant-free HTMs for PVSCs is highly desirable and remains as a major challenge in this field. In this review, we will summarize the recent advances in the molecular design of dopant-free HTMs for PVSCs.
