Abstract The field of solar systems has undergone rapid development with the emergence special material, perovskite. Perovskite's unique mechanism, defect tolerance, enabled perovskite cells (PSCs) to achieve high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs), and many studies on this subject have been conducted. “Defect tolerance” indicates that defects in are primarily generated at shallow‐energy level do not occur through nonradiative recombination. However, also well formed films shallow can transform into deep traps, leading long‐term stability issues. Therefore, controlling is essential for developing PSCs PCEs. causes diverse, patterns differ considerably, particularly depending location PSCs.
