This triple mesoscopic layer-based device has achieved comparable PCEs.[16, 17] However, the micrometer-thick ZrO 2 layer (1–2 µm) between TiO 2 layer and carbon layer challenges the charge transportation and hinders the further improvement of device performance. It will cause a short-circuit and significantly affect the reproducibility of the fabrication of devices to simply reduce the thickness of ZrO 2 layer. Thus, it is necessary to enhance the hole conductivity of the organometal trihalide perovskites to improve the device performance. Using mixedanion instead of single-anion seems to be an effective method to optimize the electric properties of the perovskites. It has been reported that fluorine plays a crucial role in the optoelectronic properties of semiconducting materials because of its high electro-negativity and stronger electron withdrawing nature than other anions. Notably, Kanatzidis and co-workers applied F doped CsSnI 2.95F 0.05 as hole conductor in all-solidstate dye-sensitized solar cells. Due to the increased intermolecular packing in the crystal structure of the perovskite, the enhanced hole conductivity led to a dramatic improvement in device performance.[19] This report on successfully incorporating F element into CsSnI 3 encourages us to incorporate F into lead halogen perovskite MAPbI 3. However, F element with the smallest ionic radius in the column VIIA in the periodic table cannot be employed to take the place of iodine in MAPbI 3 for PSCs because of the instability of mixed halide perovskite systems based on I− and F− ions.[20] It is believed that the tolerance factor t of mixed halide perovskite MAPbI (3− x) F x is not in the range of 0.7 to 1 which is required for stable perovskite materials. Here, t is expressed as: t=(RA+ RX)/[2 1/2 (RB+ RX)], where RA, RB, and RX correspond to the ionic radiuses of A, B, and X, and octahedral factor µ is defined as the ratio RB/RX. In order to overcome such instability issue, an interesting strategy to incorporate F ion in MAPbI 3 via partial substitution of I− by BF 4− with similar ionic radius was reported by Ogale and co-workers.[20] Unfortunately, the application of this mixedanion perovskite with BF 4− in MPSC has not been studied. Herein, a mixed-anion perovskite MAPbI (3− x)(BF 4) x was firstly developed for hole-conductor-free MPSCs. Benefiting from similar ionic radius of BF 4− and I−, the fundamental characteristics of MAPbI 3 could be maintained along with specifically improved electric properties. Due to the improved optical and electrical properties, such as light harvesting ability, carrier concentration and conductivity, the photovoltaic performance of MAPbI (3− x)(BF 4) x-based device was dramatically improved, compared with typical MAPbI 3-based device. PCE of 13.24% with enhanced Jsc of 18.15 mA cm− 2, Voc of 957 mV and FF of 0.76Since the path breaking report from Miyasaka and co-workers, hybrid organic–inorganic metal halide perovskite has been rapidly recognized as an outstanding absorber for the application in photovoltaics on account of their advantages of high extinction coefficient, excellent ambipolar charge mobility, small exciton binding energy, and tunable bandgap.[1–3] However, the instability resulted from the dissolution of perovskites in liquid-state electrolyte hinders its further development as the absorber in perovskite-sensitized solar cells. To solve this problem, solid-state hole-transporting-materials (HTMs), such as 2, 2′, 7, 7′-Tetrakis (N, N-di-p-methoxyphenyl amine)-9, 9′-spirobifluorene (spiro-OMeTAD), were employed to replace the liquid-state electrolyte and assemble all-solid-state devices.[4, 5] Within few years, such all-solid-state perovskite solar …
