In this work, we couple theoretical and experimental approaches to understand reduce the losses of wide bandgap Br-rich perovskite pin devices at open-circuit voltage (VOC) short-circuit current (JSC) conditions. A mismatch between internal quasi-Fermi level splitting (QFLS) external VOC is detrimental for these devices. We demonstrate that modifying top-surface with guanidinium-Br imidazolium-Br forms a low-dimensional phase n-interface, suppressing QFLS-VOC mismatch, boosting VOC. Concurrently, use an ionic interlayer or self-assembled monolayer p-interface reduces inferred field screening induced by mobile ions JSC, promoting charge extraction raising JSC. The combination n- p-type optimizations allows us approach thermodynamic potential absorber layer, resulting in 1 cm2 performance parameters VOCs up 1.29 V, fill factors above 80% JSCs 17 mA/cm2, addition thermal stability T80 lifetime more than 3500 h 85 °C.

Wide-bandgap perovskites play a key role in high-performance tandem solar cells, which have the potential to break Schockley-Queisser limit. Here, 2D/3D hybrid wide-bandgap perovskite was developed using octane-1,8-diaminium (ODA) as spacer. The incorporation of ODA spacer can not only significantly reduce charge carrier nonradiative recombination loss but also inhibit phase separation. Moreover, with synergy effect butylammonium iodide (BAI) surface defect passivator, both stability and device performance were further improved. Compared control inverted VOC 1.16 V PCE 18.50%, optimized PSCs based on processed exhibit superior high 1.26 champion 22.19%, is record efficiency for (Eg > 1.65 eV). This work provides very effective strategy suppress separation highly efficient stable cells.
