Influence of Interfacial Reactions on Perovskite Optoelectronic Devices

Interfacial materials tend to alter the crystallization, films growth and defect formation process of the as-deposited perovskites, which has been a critical and fundamental factor in determining the efficiency and operational stability of perovskite-based optoelectronic devices. This review explores the underlying mechanism of interfacial reactions, which can either result in degradations or be beneficial. The influence of interfacial reactions, mainly interface-induced deprotonation of organic cations and amidation processes, are discussed in relation to their impact on perovskite film growth and ensuing optoelectronic device performance. It is further proposed strategies to regulate these reactions and mitigate their negative effects to achieve high performance optoelectronic devices.
