Flexible perovskite solar cells (f-PSCs) have attracted great attention because of their unique advantages in lightweight and portable electronics applications. However, efficiencies are far inferior to those rigid counterparts. Herein, a novel histamine diiodate (HADI) is designed based on theoretical study modify the SnO2 /perovskite interface. Systematic experimental results reveal that HADI serves effectively as multifunctional agent mainly three aspects: 1) surface modification realign conduction band upward improve interfacial charge extraction; 2) passivating buried surface, 3) bridging between layers for effective transfer. Consequently, MA-free PSCs HADI-SnO2 electron transport layer (ETL) display not only high champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) 24.79% open-circuit voltage (VOC ) 1.20 V but also outstanding stability demonstrated by preserving 91% initial after being exposed ambient atmosphere 1200 h without any encapsulation. Furthermore, solution-processed ETL formed at low temperature (100 °C) utilized f-PSCs achieve PCE 22.44%, highest reported date.
