Tailoring Self-Assembled Monolayers with Post-Assembly Nicotinic Acids for Efficient and Ultraviolet Stable Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

Key Points

• Tailored self-assembled monolayers enhance performance in inverted perovskite solar cells, improving stability and efficiency.
• Power conversion efficiencies have reached record levels, but challenges like incomplete SAM coverage still limit effectiveness.
• Addressing substrate issues with innovative solutions can significantly impact the effectiveness of this technology.
• The use of post-assembly nicotinic acids appears to stabilize the cells against ultraviolet degradation.
