Abstract

Daily temperature variations induce phase transitions and lattice strains in halide perovskites, challenging their stability in solar cells. We stabilised the perovskite black phase and improved the solar cell performance using the ordered dipolar structure of β-poly(1,1-difluoroethylene) to control...
