Abstract
Abstract The precise control and understanding of crystal orientation in perovskite polycrystalline films are crucial for the development of efficient and stable devices. However, achieving this control remains a significant challenge. Herein, a PbI 2 oriented growth strategy is developed, combined with in situ vapor–solid reaction transformations, to achieve oriented growth of full‐vacuum perovskite films. Grazing‐incidence wide‐angle X‐ray scattering (GIWAXS) analysis revealed the general pattern of PbI 2 oriented vapor growth and in situ vapor–solid reaction transformation in this two‐step process. The resulting preferred orientation has effectively reduced trap state density, optimizing the carrier dynamics. As a result, champion efficiencies of 22.11% (0.148 cm 2 ), 20.60% (1 cm 2 ), and 19.41% (5 × 5 cm 2 mini‐modules) are achieved, which are the highest value for perovskite based on vapor–solid reaction. Additionally, the oriented growth method is applicable to a variety of guide layers and is extended to 30 × 30 cm 2 film, demonstrating the universality and scalability of the method.
