The theoretical power conversion efficiency limit of multi-junction solar cells exhibits a progressive enhancement with increasing number of junctions. However, the performance of all-perovskite triple-junction solar cells is currently limited by the quality of the ≈2 eV wide bandgap perovskite layer, primarily due to its rapid and uncontrolled crystallization process. In this study, a gas quenching method into the fabrication of wide-bandgap perovskite films is introduced, effectively modulating the crystallization kinetics by elevating the nucleation energy barrier, thereby achieving smooth films with uniform vertical halogen distribution. The derived wide bandgap perovskite solar cells exhibit a high open-circuit voltage of 1.42 V with excellent reproducibility. Based on the optimized WBG perovskite, all-perovskite triple-junction solar cells that achieve a remarkable efficiency of 25.3% with an open-circuit voltage of 3.23 V under AM 1.5G illumination are fabricated. This work provides an effective strategy to overcome the crystallization challenge in WBG perovskites, paving the way for the development of efficient and stable multi-junction perovskite solar cells.

The introduction of two-dimensional (2D) perovskite layers on top of three-dimensional (3D) perovskite films enhances the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the electronic effect of the spacer cation and the quality of the 2D capping layer are critical factors in achieving the required results. In this study, we compared two fluorinated salts: 4-(trifluoromethyl) benzamidine hydrochloride (4TF-BA·HCl) and 4-fluorobenzamidine hydrochloride (4F-BA·HCl) to engineer the 3D/2D perovskite films.

Perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells have attracted considerable attention owing to their high power conversion efficiency (PCE), which exceeds the limits of single-junction devices. This study focused on lead-free tin-based perovskites with iodine-bromine mixed anions. Bromide perovskites have a wide bandgap; therefore, they are promising light absorbers for perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells.

Nonfullerene acceptor-based organic solar cells have recently taken a milestone leap with power conversion efficiencies approaching 20%. A key to further boost the efficiencies up to the Shockley-Queisser limit rests upon attaining a delicate balance between exciton dissociation and charge transport. This perspective presents two seminal and reciprocal strategies developed by our group and others to reconcile the intricacy of charge carrier dynamics, spanning from intrinsic molecular structure design to extrinsic dopant exploitation.

Perovskite materials have revolutionized optoelectronics by virtue of their tunable bandgaps, exceptional optoelectronic properties, and structural flexibility. Notably, the state-of-the-art performance of perovskite solar cells has reached 27%, making perovskite materials a promising candidate for next-generation photovoltaic technology. Although numerous reviews regarding perovskite materials have been published, the existing reviews generally focus on individual material systems (e.

Perovskites have a large number of intrinsic defects and interface defects, which often lead to non-radiative recombination, and thus affect the efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Introducing appropriate passivators between the perovskite layer and the transport layer for defect modification is crucial for improving the performance of PSCs. Herein, two positional isomers, 1-naphthylmethylammonium iodide (NMAI) and 2-naphthylmethylammonium iodide (NYAI) are designed.
