Electrostatically Enhanced Buried Interface Binding of Self-Assembled Monolayers for Efficient and Stable Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

Published in Advanced Materials 2025, 37 (43), e202508740, 2025

The donor-acceptor SAM PAFTB, with its enhanced dipole moment and tailored anchoring groups, strengthens electrostatic interactions at the TCO/perovskite buried interface 2.8× relative to 2PACz, yielding certified 24.9% quasi-steady-state PCE with 80% efficiency retention after 900 h of MPP tracking at 85 °C.
