Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) based on carbazole with minimal parasitic absorption, such as the most widely used [2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethyl]phosphonic acid (2PACz), dominate high-performance hole transport layer (HTL) for conventional organic solar cells (OSCs). However, small dipole moment of 2PACz molecules results in weak molecular dipole-dipole interactions, leading to disordered orientation and restricting work function modulation, which causes serious interfacial energy loss. Here, we grafted thiophene groups at both ends obtain an SAM material (Th-Cz), formed a transient resonance structure during thermal annealing, resulting twice-enlarged moment. This strengthened facilitating ordered arrangement Th-Cz film, contributing higher function, enhanced extraction suppressed losses SAM/active interface. Additionally, van der Waals interactions between donors enabled donor crystallizing before acceptor, this phenomenon is different from cocrystallization observed 2PACz-based active layers. manipulation crystallization dynamics favors vertical phase separation donor-rich bottom layers, balanced charge-carrier mobilities. The resultant OSCs PM6:Y6 D18-Cl:N3:AT-β2O HTL achieved power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) 19.34% 20.91% (certified 20.67%), respectively, setting record PCE PM6:Y6-based achieving highest certified single-junction date. Notably, also demonstrated exceptional compatibility flexible OSCs, delivering 19.63%.

Abstract Obtaining high‐quality perovskite films is crucial for reducing non‐radiative recombination and improving device performance. As reported, the crystallization process of can be effectively tailored by introducing multifunctional additives. In this work, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) with varying degrees polymerization (DP) values (K15, K30, K90) are systematically screened utilized as an additive to regulate defect density control films. This regulation achieved through coordination interactions between perovskites their multi‐carbonyl groups PVP. Among selected polymers, K30 carbonyl polymer exhibits a suitable viscosity bind strength, which facilitated significant delay in intermediate phase transition accelerated nucleation. result, enhanced crystallinity, prolonged PL lifetime, no residual PbI 2 achieved. The K30‐treated MA‐free demonstrated PCE 24.16% remarkable V OC 1.2 V. Moreover, strategy extended RbCsFAMA quadruple‐cation films, delivering impressive 25.35% minimal deficit 0.35 work provides effective approach modulate crystal growth highlights significance DP polymeric

Abstract The unique molecular properties of carbazole‐derived‐phosphonic acid‐base self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs), have great potential in applying perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and optoelectronic devices. SAMs been successfully used PSCs wide bandgap (WBG)‐indoor with excellent hole‐extraction minimize energy loss at the interface defects. Surprisingly, nearly all reported an even number carbons chain linkers (i.e., 2, 4, 6) are to connect carbazole phosphonic acid fragment.
