Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) develop great potential to make photovoltaic power generation systems more cost‐effective due to the high power conversion efficiency (PCE), low material cost, and easy fabrication. Alloyed A‐site cations surrounded by PbI 6 octahedra play decisive roles in the crystal structure, bandgap, and phase stability, as well as ion migration. Herein, based on the temperature‐dependent ion conductivity measurement, the activation energy for iodide ion migration is systematically studied with different proportions of guanidinium cation (GA + ) substitution. It is found that partial GA + doping could effectively suppress iodide ion migration. The triple‐cation perovskite (MA 0.8 FA 0.1 GA 0.1 PbI 3 ) PSCs achieve a PCE of 22.17% with superior operational stability maintaining 90% of their initial efficiency after 1200 h under continuous light soaking. Furthermore, it is extended to mini perovskite solar modules, 14 cm 2 active area, and achieves a PCE of 19.18%.
