We introduce here a two-dimensional (2D) A<sub>2<\/sub>PbI<sub>4<\/sub> perovskite layer using pentafluorophenylethylammonium (FEA) as a fluoroarene cation inserted between the 3D light-harvesting perovskite film and the hole-transporting material (HTM). The perfluorinated benzene moiety confers an ultrahydrophobic character to the spacer layer, protecting the perovskite light-harvesting material from ambient moisture while mitigating ionic diffusion in the device. Unsealed 3D\/2D PSCs retain 90% of their efficiency during photovoltaic operation for 1000 hours in humid air under simulated sunlight. Remarkably, the 2D layer also enhances interfacial hole extraction, suppressing nonradiative carrier recombination and enabling a power conversion efficiency (PCE) &gt;22%, the highest reported for 3D\/2D architectures. Our new approach provides water- and heat-resistant operationally stable PSCs with a record-level PCE.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOI: 10.1126\/sciadv.aaw2543 Authors: Yuhang Liu, Se\u00e7kin Ak\u0131n, Linfeng Pan, Ryusuke Uchida, Neha Arora, Jovana V.
