Influence of an Organic Salt‐Based Stabilizing Additive on Charge Carrier Dynamics in Triple Cation Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract Besides further improvement in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSC), their long‐term stability must also be ensured. Additives such as organic cations with halide counter anions are considered promising candidates to address this challenge, conferring both higher performance and increased stability to perovskite‐based devices. Here, a stabilizing additive (N,N‐dimethylmethyleneiminium chloride, [Dmmim]Cl) is identified, and its effect on charge carrier mobility and lifetime under thermal stress in triple cation perovskite (Cs_0.05MA_0.05FA_0.90PbI₃) thin films is investigated. To explore the fundamental mechanisms limiting charge carrier mobility, temperature‐dependent microwave conductivity measurements are performed. Different mobility behaviors across two temperature regions are revealed, following the power law T^m, indicating two different dominant scattering mechanisms. The low‐temperature region is assigned to charge carrier scattering with polar optical phonons, while a strong decrease in mobility at high temperatures is due to dynamic disorder. The results obtained rationalize the improved stability of the [Dmmim]Cl‐doped films and devices compared to the undoped reference samples, by limiting temperature‐activated mobile ions and retarding degradation of the perovskite film.
