  • Rb doping ensured uniform Cs distribution, relieved lattice strain, and reduced iodide-vacancy defects.
  • Rb-doped devices achieved 21.62% efficiency (1.67 eV bandgap), increased to 22.51% with PDAI2 treatment.
  • Enhanced photostability: 88% efficiency retained after 400h under ISOS-L-1 conditions without encapsulation.

Conclusions:

  • Rb incorporation is an effective strategy for improving Cs-rich perovskite solar cells.
  • The developed Rb-doped perovskite solar cells offer high efficiency and remarkable operational stability.
  • This research presents a viable pathway for developing efficient and stable pure-iodide wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells.
