Abstract

Surface defects seriously damage carrier transport by forming non-radiative recombination centers on the perovskite film, which negatively affect the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here we present a strong chelate coordination bond to anchor the surface of the perovskite film. Employing Bathophenanthroline (BPhen) as a π-conjugated bidentate chelator, the uncoordinated Pb2+ can be firmly anchored accompanying with the reduced surface recombination sites, giving rise to suppressed non-radiative recombination and enhanced charge carrier extraction. With the BPhen, the perovskite film shows an approximately threefold longer carrier lifetime than the control device, leading to a champion PCE of 24.09 % and a high stable performance with retained over 80 % of its initial efficiency after 1000 h exposed to relative humidity (RH) of 65 ± 5 %.
