Abstract
Surface defects-mediated nonradiative recombination plays a critical role in the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and surface post-treatment is widely used for efficient PSCs. However, the commonly used surface passivation strategies are one-off and the passivation defect ability is limited, which can only solve part of the defects in the topmost surface area. Here, a secondary anti-solvent strategy is proposed to further reduce surface defects based on conventional surface passivation for the first time. Based on this, the crystallization quality of 2D Dion-Jacobson perovskite is enhanced and the surface defects density is further reduced by nearly two orders. In addition, a gradient structure of perovskite with n = 2 phases located at the top of the film and 3D-like phases located at the bottom of the film can also be obtained. The modulated perovskite film boosts the efficiency of 2D perovskites (n = 5) up to 19.55%. This strategy is also very useful in other anti-solvent processed perovskite dipping systems, which paves a promising avenue for minimizing surface defects toward highly efficient perovskite devices.
