Abstract
Summary Despite the demonstrated high efficiency of perovskite solar cells and light-emitting devices, the understanding of the intrinsic stability of perovskites is far from complete. In this work, using an ultrasensitive, exfoliated 2D perovskite single-crystal sheet/graphene heterostructure device, we reveal spontaneous iodide loss as an important degradation pathway of 2D perovskite single crystals, which n-dopes the perovskite semiconductor by generating positively charged iodide vacancies. Furthermore, we show that covering perovskites with graphene can suppress the iodide loss, significantly improving perovskite stability. A perovskite phototransistor is demonstrated with a graphene/2D perovskite/graphene structure, which shows no degradation after 75 days. Our work not only provides important insights for future stable perovskite optoelectronic device development, but also demonstrates the potential of graphene as a promising sensitive diagnostic tool for device and material degradation studies.
