Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) consisting of interfacial two- and three-dimensional heterostructures that incorporate ammonium ligand intercalation have enabled rapid progress toward the goal of uniting performance with stability. However, as the field continues to seek ever-higher durability, additional tools that avoid progressive ligand intercalation are needed to minimize degradation at high temperatures. We used ammonium ligands that are nonreactive with the bulk of perovskites and investigated a library that varies ligand molecular structure systematically. We found that fluorinated aniliniums offer interfacial passivation and simultaneously minimize reactivity with perovskites. Using this approach, we report a certified quasi–steady-state power-conversion efficiency of 24.09% for inverted-structure PSCs. In an encapsulated device operating at 85°C and 50% relative humidity, we document a 1560-hour T85 at maximum power point under 1-sun illumination. Description Editor’s summary The thermal stability of three-dimensional perovskite solar cells can be improved by adding ammonium ligands that create a two-dimensional perovskite capping layers, but such ligands are prone to intercalation into the bulk. Park et al. showed that the smallest aromatic ligand, anilinium, had the lowest ligand reactivity with three-dimensional perovskites because of steric hindrance near the ammonium group, and a fluorinated derivative of this ligand created a robust interface structure. Encapsulated solar cells maintained 85% of their power conversion efficiency of about 20% at 85°C and 50% relative humidity after about 1600 hours of maximum power point operation. —PDS Suppressing ammonium ligand intercalation stabilizes the interface structure of perovskite solar cells at high temperatures.
