Abstract
Abstract All‐perovskite tandem solar cells (TSCs) are gaining increasing attention due to their potential to surpass the efficiency limit of single‐junction solar cells. However, as the bottom low‐bandgap subcells, tin‐lead (Sn‐Pb) perovskites suffer from severe nonradiative recombination at the interfaces due to their susceptibility to oxidation and poor crystalline morphology. Here a surface modifier 4‐(trifluoromethyl)benzhydrazide (TFH) is reported to construct a reductive chemical environment on the surface of perovskite films and protect them from water and oxygen erosion. TFH anchors onto the Sn‐Pb perovskites in a preferred vertical orientation through dual‐site binding, forming interface dipoles that facilitate charge extraction. The reductive hydrazine groups of TFH can effectively inhibit the oxidation of Sn 2+ and I − , thereby reducing the defect density and energy disorder of Sn─Pb perovskites. Consequently, the TFH‐treated devices achieved a champion PCE of 22.88%, maintaining over 93% of the initial efficiency after continuous one‐sun illumination for 500 h. Combined with a 1.79 eV wide‐bandgap subcell, it has demonstrated a PCE of 28.17% in all‐perovskite TSCs.
