Abstract
Abstract Mixed‐cation perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted much attention because of the advantages of suitable bandgap and stability. It is still a challenge to rationally design and modify the perovskite/tin oxide (SnO 2 ) heterogeneous interface for achieving highly efficient and stable PSCs. Herein, a strategy of one‐stone‐for‐three‐birds is proposed to achieve multi‐functional interface regulation via introducing N‐Chlorosuccinimide (NCS) into the solution of SnO 2 : i) C═O functional group in NCS can induces strong binding affinity to uncoordinated defects (oxygen vacancies, free lead ions, etc) at the buried interface and passivate them; ii) incomplete in situ hydrolysis reactions can occur spontaneously and adjust the pH value of the SnO 2 solution to achieve a more matchable energy level; iii) effectively releasing the residual stress of the underlying perovskite. As a result, a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 24.74% is achieved with a device structure of ITO/SnO 2 /Perovskite/Spiro‐OMeTAD/Ag, which is one of the highest values for cesium‐formamidinium‐methylammonium (CsFAMA) triple cation PSCs. Furthermore, the device without encapsulation can sustain 94.6% of its initial PCE after the storage at room temperature and relative humidity (RH) of 20% for 40 days. The research provides a versatile way to manipulate buried interface for achieving efficient and stable PSCs.
