Abstract

The addition of amphiphilic triethylene glycol based corannulene molecules provides multiple Lewis basic sites that assist in perovskite grain growth, and improve the charge carrier collection and moisture resistance of perovskite solar cells. This study paves the way for utilization of more molecules from corannulene families in perovskite research.
