Work function modulation of transparent conductive oxides via self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) facilitates efficient hole or electron extraction in optoelectronic devices. However, recent SAMs for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) diverge from traditional interfacial dipole orientation design principles, instead leveraging electron-rich and electron-deficient surface modifications. In light of these discrepancies, this study systematically analyses electron-deficient materials of varying strength, revealing the dominance of surface modifications over interfacial dipole orientation.

However, contradictory requirements on solvent volatilization arise that the growth of large grains requires slow volatilization while the residual solvent problem, which leads to difficult-handled voids at buried interface, requires quick and complete volatilization. Currently, although grain boundary additives help reach large and oriented grains, the occupation of additives in the grain boundary volatilization channel may further deteriorate the residual solvent problem.
