Using dopant-free organic hole transport materials (d-HTMs) is promising for stable fPSCs. However, the low conductivity of d-HTMs limited their thickness, making them sensitive to the surface morphology of the perovskite film's upper surface. Here, we report a chemical polishing strategy using 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (HMIM∙Ac) as the polishing reagent to enhance the upper surface of the perovskite film, which could form a smooth and flat surface. Meanwhile, the treatment can reduce surface defects and smaller grains on top of the surface. Then, we deposite an ultra-thin dopant-free PM6 layer, a typical hole transport layer, on top of the polished perovskite film. The PM6 layer shows an improved face-on orientation and then carrier mobility. Moreover, suppressed non-radiative recombination at the perovskite/PM6 interface is also observed, translating into a higher open-circuit voltage and fill factor of the fPSCs. As a result, a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 17.76 %, with an open-circuit voltage of 1.025 V and fill factor of 78.2 %, is obtained, which is one of the highest PCEs among the reported fPSCs based on d-HTMs. Our strategy demonstrates a facile but effective way of developing high-efficiency and stable fPSCs for future applications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100233,"journal":{"name":"Chemistry of Inorganic Materials","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100061"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949746924000296/pdfft?md5=f9ea6df09de7737be8dae8084f4bf364&pid=1-s2.0-S2949746924000296-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
