摘要
The relatively lower crystallinity and random orientation of quantum well structures hinder carrier transport and limit the performance of formamidinium (FA) based low-n 2D perovskite devices. In this work, the crystallization and quantum well orientation are fine tuned to achieve efficient low-n FA based Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite solar cells. The effects of different ionic additives on the crystallization, orientation, and photovoltaic performance of FA based low-n 2D perovskites are comparatively investigated. It is found that NH4+ and SCN- can significantly retard the heterogeneous crystallization of low-n phases in the intermediate state, and drive the templated growth of quantum well structure with vertical orientation. The optimized photovoltaic device based on (BA)(2)(FA)(3)Pb4I13 achieved a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.14%, setting the highest record for FA-based low-n 2D perovskite solar cells as far as it is known (average n = 4). The unencapsulated device exhibited excellent stability and maintained 93.3% of its original PCE at 85 degrees C, and 86.3% at 1 Sun illumination after 720 h in humid ambient condition.
