Retarding solid-state reactions enable efficient and stable all-inorganic perovskite solar cells and modules.

ABSTRACT: All-inorganic CsPbI₃ perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with efficiencies exceeding 20% are ideal candidates for application in large-scale tandem solar cells. However, there are still two major obstacles hindering their scale-up: (i) the inhomogeneous solid-state synthesis process and (ii) the inferior stability of the photoactive CsPbI₃ black phase. Here, we have used a thermally stable ionic liquid, bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([PPN][TFSI]), to retard the high-temperature solid-state reaction between Cs₄PbI₆ and DMAPbI₃ [dimethylammonium (DMA)], which enables the preparation of high-quality and large-area CsPbI₃ films in the air. Because of the strong Pb-O contacts, [PPN][TFSI
