Abstract Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) based on the SnO 2 electron transport layer (ETL) have achieved remarkable photovoltaic efficiency. However, commercial ETLs show various shortcomings. The precursor is prone to agglomeration, resulting in poor morphology with numerous interface defects. Additionally, open circuit voltage ( V oc ) would be constrained by energy level mismatch between and perovskite. And, few studies designed ‐based promote crystal growth of PbI , a crucial prerequisite...

Solar cells based on organic-inorganic hybrid lead-halide perovskites are very promising because of their high performance and solution process feasibility. Elemental engineering perovskite composition is a facile path to obtain high-quality crystals for efficient stable solar cells. It was found that partially substituting I- with Cl- in the precursor promoted crystal growth, grain size larger than layer thickness, facilitated generation self-passivation PbI2. Whereas residual ions were...
