Abstract
AbstractGas‐quenching of perovskite wet films is widely used in upscaling perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, due to uneven and turbulent gas stream generated by traditional approaches through air knife or air gun, it is a challenge to induce homogeneous nucleation and produce high‐quality perovskite films suitable for large‐area PSCs. Here this work presents a semi‐sealed gas quenching (SSGQ) strategy that produces homogeneous low‐velocity large‐area high‐pressure gas flow to extract low‐boiling‐point solvents effectively, while leaving behind perovskite intermediates undisturbed that then turn into large crystalline grains. As a result, the SSGQ‐processed perovskite films exhibit improved crystallinity and reproducibility, suppressed defect density and residual stress, as well as compact buried interface and large‐scale uniformity. Such blade‐coated large‐area (1.0 cm2) PSCs with carbon and metal electrodes achieve high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 19.5% and 23.3% (20.5% and 24.2% for 0.04 cm2), both with the lowest PCE loss of ≤1.0% among reported works. This work presents a scalable and affordable approach for fabricating high‐quality perovskite films and high‐performance perovskite photovoltaics, paving the way to PSC commercialization.
