Multifunctional Modification of the Buried Interface in Mixed Tin‐Lead Perovskite Solar Cells

Mixed tin-lead perovskite solar cells can reach band gaps as low as 1.2 eV, offering high theoretical efficiency and serving as base materials for all-perovskite tandem solar cells. However, instability and high defect densities at the interfaces, particularly the buried surface, have limited performance improvements. In this work, we present the modification of the bottom perovskite interface with multifunctional hydroxylamine salts. These salts can effectively coordinate the different perovskite components, having critical influences in regulating the crystallization process and passivating defects of varying nature. The surface modification reduced traps at the interface and prevented the formation of excessive lead iodide, enhancing the quality of the films. The modified devices presented fill factors reaching 81 % and efficiencies of up to 23.8 %. The unencapsulated modified devices maintained over 95 % of their initial efficiency after 2000 h of shelf storage.

Abstract

Mixed tin-lead perovskite solar cells can reach band gaps as low as 1.2 eV, offering high theoretical efficiency and serving as base materials for all-perovskite tandem solar cells. However, instability and high defect densities at the interfaces, particularly the buried surface, have limited performance improvements. In this work, we present the modification of the bottom perovskite interface with multifunctional hydroxylamine salts. These salts can effectively coordinate the different perovskite components, having critical influences in regulating the crystallization process and passivating defects of varying nature. The surface modification reduced traps at the interface and prevented the formation of excessive lead iodide, enhancing the quality of the films. The modified devices presented fill factors reaching 81 % and efficiencies of up to 23.8 %. The unencapsulated modified devices maintained over 95 % of their initial efficiency after 2000 h of shelf storage.
