Abstract
Quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper (2DRP) perovskites offer improved environmental stability in relation to their 3D counterparts. However, their multiple-quantum-well structure and insulating organic spacers inherently limit vertical charge transport, significantly reducing device performance in scalable printed films. Herein, we employ methylammonium chloride (MACl) as a crystallization-modulating additive to overcome these transport bottlenecks in ambient printed 2DRP perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Focusing on an n = 9 2DRP absorber, MACl modulates precursor interactions involving organic spacers and guides phase evolution during film formation. This modulation yields a highly uniform phase distribution dominated by large-n 2DRP phases while enhancing crystallinity and vertical orientation. Consequently, trap-mediated recombination is significantly suppressed, leading to enhanced carrier mobility and facilitating efficient photocurrent generation. As a result, the optimized 1 cm2 printed 2DRP-based PSC achieves a remarkable power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.4%, in relation to the negligible PCE (0.4%) of the control device. Furthermore, this strategy is successfully validated across various compositions (n = 2, 4, 5, and 7), demonstrating a versatile and broadly applicable route for the development of high-performance, scalable printed 2DRP-based PSCs.
