Abstract

Abstract FAPbI 3 perovskites have garnered considerable interest owing to their outstanding thermal stability, along with near‐theoretical bandgap and efficiency. However, their inherent phase instability presents a substantial challenge to the long‐term stability of devices. Herein, this issue through a dual‐strategy of self‐assembly 3D/0D quasi‐core–shell structure is tackled as an internal encapsulation layer, and in situ introduction of excess PbI 2 for surface and grain boundary defects passivating, therefore preventing moisture intrusion into FAPbI 3 perovskite films. By utilizing this method alone, not only enhances the stability of the FAPbI 3 film but also effectively passivates defects and minimizes non‐radiative recombination, ultimately yielding a champion device efficiency of 23.23%. Furthermore, the devices own better moisture resistance, exhibiting a T 80 lifetime exceeding 3500 h at 40% relative humidity (RH). Meanwhile, a 19.51% PCE of mini‐module (5 × 5 cm 2 ) is demonstrated. This research offers valuable insights and directions for the advancement of stable and highly efficient FAPbI 3 perovskite solar cells.
