To overcome this issue, ultra-thin LiF has been widely used as an interlayer between ▫$C_{60}$▫ and perovskite layers facilitating efficient electron extraction but resulting in instability. In this work, the use of a piperidinium bromide (PpBr) is reported as an interlayer between ▫$C_{60}$▫ and perovskite, and the interlayer further is optimized by introducing an additional oxygen atom on the opposite side of the ▫$NH_{2}+$▫. This results in morpholinium bromide (MLBr) with increased dipole moment. Because of this, MLBr is highly effective in minimizing the energy band mismatch between perovskite and ▫$C_{60}$▫ layer for electron extraction while at the same time passivating defects. The champion single junction 1.67 eV MLBr solar cell produced a PCE of 21.9% and the champion monolithic MLBr perovskite-Si tandem cell produced a PCE of 28.8%. Most importantly, both encapsulated MLBr and PpBr devices retain over 97% of their initial efficiency after 400 thermal cycles (between −40 and 85 °C), twice the number of cycles specified by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61215 photovoltaic module standard.20242025-02-27 14:58:54Članek v reviji167557UDK: 621.383.51ISSN pri članku: 1614-6840DOI: 10.1002/aenm.202401029COBISS_ID: 202838787sl
