Abstract
The device performance of organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is highly dependent on the quality of perovskite layer. Herein, a multifunctional chemical additive strategy is reported to simultaneously improve the efficiency and stability of fully air‐processed PSCs. The planner methylammonium lead trihalide (MAPbI3)‐based PSCs incorporating sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) exhibit a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 19.20% and negligible hysteresis, which is one of the top efficiencies of MAPbI3‐based PSCs made in air. The increased efficiency is due to the reduction of defects and inhibition of ion migration in the perovskite films. Furthermore, the enhancement of device performance and stability can also be ascribed to highly preferred and efficient perovskite crystals protecting the perovskite films from humidity. The corresponding unencapsulated device retains 92.34% of its initial efficiency after 90 days (>2100 h) storage in air and maintains 85.20% of its original PCE after being exposed to 85 °C for 27 h. The results indicate that SDBS is a promising chemical additive to enhance the performance of air‐processed PSCs for future applications.
