Organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been widely studied due to their excellent photoelectric conversion performance, but the inherent chemical instability of CH(NH2)2PbI3 (FAPbI3) hinders its sustainable development. In particular, the surface interface of the membrane has prominent humidity sensitivity due to lower activation energy, the defect of the surface interface has a strong correlation with the film stability, and the treatment result of the defect is one of the key factors to improve the long-term stability. The FAPbI3 suffers phase transition from black perovskite phase to yellow non-perovskite phase at room temperature, and the moisture will accelerate this phase transition. Interface engineering is one of the common methods to improve the stability of perovskite solar cells. In addition to interface engineering, there is a strategy of stacking a two-dimensional (2D) perovskite layer on the surface for interface passivation. However, most of the preparation methods of 2D perovskite layer have limitations. In this work, the full solution method and post-treatment mode of annealing are adopted, the hybrid perovskite solar cells of vitamin perovskite are successfully fabricated. The FAPbI3 perovskite surface is uniformly spin-coated with butylamine iodide (BAI) solution, and the formation of 2D perovskite is driven on the surface of FAPbI3 perovskite. Due to the passivation of surface interface defects by the 2D perovskite layer, the non-radiative recombination of charge carriers is reduced, greatly improving the carrier lifetime. Because of the hydrophobicity of long chain molecules in 2D perovskite, the long-term stability of the device is significantly improved. Consequently, the unencapsulated device containing 2D perovskite layer remains above 80% after operating at room temperature in ambient air with a relative humidity (RH) of 60% for nearly 1000 hours. The 2D perovskite layer can significantly improve the long-term stability of the film without affecting the charge carrier transport performance. This method of improving the stability of the device by constructing 2D perovskite layer is in line with the requirements and development trend of high-quality perovskite solar cells, and is a strategy with great development potential.
