Yi Wei et al.

Summary: The study aimed to simultaneously enhance the stability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells by tuning the organic components in 2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (2D-RPPs). By investigating the influence of different cations on film properties and device performance, the authors achieved a high efficiency of 16.15% for the (FPEA)(2)(FA)(8)Pb9I28 solar cell. Notably, the film exhibited good humidity stability and enhanced thermal stability, maintaining 95% of its efficiency after 2112 hours of exposure to ambient air. This study demonstrates that strategically designing organic compositions can lead to improved performance of 2D-RPPs, paving the way for commercialization of 2D-RPP devices.
