A bromide substituted 2D additive for stable and efficient perovskite photovoltaics.

In this article, a bromide substituted 2D layered perovskite having a repeated vertical orientation and coexisting with the bulk of a 3D perovskite is reported for the first time. This novel structure is obtained through controlled compositional engineering of the perovskite precursor solution. The photovoltaic performance of this novel 2D/3D perovskite was higher than that of 3D MAPbI and a maximum photoconversion efficiency (PCE) of 17.
