It is commonly believed that excess PbI has beneficial effects for perovskite solar cells owing to the modification of charge-transport behavior at interfaces, by surface passivation and by blocking electron-hole recombination. Here, we introduce a dynamically dispensed spin-coating technique in a two-step deposition to form a perovskite layer with controllable quantities of crystalline PbI . Using this technique, the concentration of CH NH I solution is kept constant at the reaction interface, ensuring smooth growth of films. By changing the spinning rate during the reaction, the PbI conversion ratio and perovskite cuboid size can be optimized, resulting in a power conversion efficiency improvement over control devices. This dynamically dispensed technique represents a repeatable method for compositional control in perovskite solar cells and improves our understanding of how a PbI blocking layer improves the performance of perovskite solar cells.
