Stabilizing Buried Interface via Synergistic Effect of Fluorine and Sulfonyl Functional Groups Toward Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

Cheng Gong et al.

Summary: The interfacial defects and energy barrier are the main reasons for interfacial nonradiative recombination. Additionally, poor perovskite crystallization and incomplete conversion of PbI2 to perovskite limit the enhancement of photovoltaic performance in devices using sequential deposition. A strategy of buried interface stabilization, involving the synergy of fluorine (F) and sulfonyl (S=O) functional groups, is proposed. Chemical bonds including hydrogen, coordination, and ionic bonds are formed to enhance interfacial contact and defect passivation. The chemical interaction between modifier molecules and perovskite, as well as SnO2, increases with the augmentation of S=O and F groups, leading to improved defect passivation and crystallization kinetics.

Tailoring multifunctional anion modifiers to modulate interfacial chemical interactions for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells

Qixin Zhuang et al.

Summary: In this paper, a universal anion modification strategy is reported to enhance the photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by introducing a series of guanidinium salts with different anions at the perovskite/SnO2 interface. The modification strategy improves the interfacial energy band alignment, promotes crystallization, and enhances the thermal and ambient stabilities of the devices.
