Regulation of Quantum Wells Width Distribution in 2D Perovskite Films for Photovoltaic Application

Abstract

Abstract Solution‐processed 2D perovskite films generally contain mixed quantum wells (QWs) with multiple well width distribution, which seriously weakens the charge transfer. To achieve regulation of the QW width, strategies to optimize the crystallization dynamics of 2D perovskite films are urgently needed. In this review, systematic summary on QW distribution and guidelines for 2D perovskite phase regulation is provided, aiming to establish a general manual for preparing efficient 2D perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The factors affecting the distribution of multiple‐QWs in 2D perovskite films, including component engineering, additive engineering, process optimization, are first generalized. Then an extensive review of these factors that are widely used to reconstruct 2D perovskite crystallization process is conducted. Leveraging these insights, the effect of QWs distributions on 2D PSCs properties is also summarized. Similarly, considering the crystallization kinetics and device performance, the QWs width control of 2D perovskite films from the aspects of ligand engineering, precursor design, and fabrication optimization, is rationalized. Finally, an outlook on how to realize ordered QWs distribution in perovskite films for efficient 2D PSCs is proposed.
