Abstract

The power conversion efficiency of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells has soared over the past ten years and currently rivals those of crystalline silicon and other thin-film solar cells. Most of the research effort so far has been focused on three-dimensional (3 D) perovskite crystals, producing devices with very high efficiency but poor operational and environmental stability. Two-dimensional (2 D) Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite has recently shown its potential as a highly stable light absorber, albeit with low efficiency. This work reviews the current progress in attaining both high efficiency and stability in solar cells by using 2 D perovskite. In particular, the focus is on multidimensional perovskite as a way to combine the best characteristics of 3 D and 2 D perovskites. Future challenges and potential methods to boost the performance of multidimensional perovskite solar cells further are briefly presented.
