Abstract

To CsPbI3 perovskite solar cells, defects from buried interfaces and improper energy band alignment can cause severe carrier recombination and hamper further enhancement in efficiency and stability. In this work, we develop an in situ strategy to reconstruct the buried interface for n-i-p typed CsPbI3 solar cells. This strategy is derived from an in situ exchange reaction between 18C6/Cs+ and Pb2+, leading to the formation of 18C6/Pb2+ in the CsPbI3 crystallization process (18C6: 18-crown-6 ether). The as-prepared 18C6/Pb2+ complex acts as a kind of molecular barrier to modify the TiO2/perovskite buried interface and passivate under-coordinated Pb2+ and iodide vacancies. Additionally, free Br– ions can diffuse…
