Abstract
Tin-based perovskite solar cells (Sn-PSCs) have emerged as promising environmentally viable photovoltaic technologies, but still suffer from severe non-radiative recombination loss due to the presence of abundant deep-level defects in the perovskite film and under-optimized carrier dynamics throughout the device. Herein, we healed the structural imperfections of Sn perovskites in an "inside-out" manner by incorporating a new class of biocompatible chelating agent with multidentate claws, namely, 2-Guanidinoacetic acid (GAA), which passivated a variety of deep-level Sn-related and I-related defects, cooperatively reinforced the passivation efficacy, released the lattice strain, improved the structural toughness, and promoted the carrier transport of Sn perovskites. Encouragingly, an efficiency of 13.7 % with a small voltage deficit of ≈0.47 V has been achieved for the GAA-modified Sn-PSCs. GAA modification also extended the lifespan of Sn-PSCs over 1200 hours.
