Formamidinium tin iodide (FASnI(3)) perovskite is a promising light harvester for lead-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the poor quality of the solution-processed FASnI(3) film always leads to an inferior efficiency and poor stability. Herein, we demonstrate a mixed-cation strategy by trace-doping of highly hydrophobic cations to construct high-quality three-dimensional (3D) perovskite films. Tin halide perovskites with FA and 3,3-diphenylpropylammonium (DPPA) hybrid cations were fabricated, and the trace-doping of DPPA cations can greatly enhance the stability of 3D perovskites by suppressing the oxidation of Sn2+ to Sn4+. After optimization of DPPAI/FAI ratios, the DPPA(0.02)FA(0.98)SnI(3) perovskite achieves better film crystallinity and morphology. Our champion device based on DPPA(0.02)FA(0.98)SnI(3) perovskite shows the highest power conversion efficiency of 6.75% with all improved device parameters. Moreover, the corresponding unencapsulated device retains 70% of its initial efficiency after aging over 600 h in N-2 environment. This work provides a feasible approach to fabricate high-quality 3D perovskites for lead-free PSCs applications.
