This strategy, however, suffers from the inevitable formation of in-plane favored two-dimensional (2D) perovskite layers with impaired charge transport, especially under thermal conditions, impeding photovoltaic performance and device scale-up. To overcome this limitation, we studied the energy barrier of 2D perovskite formation from ortho-, meta- and para-isomers of (phenylene)di(ethylammonium) iodide (PDEAI<sub>2<\/sub>) that were designed for tailored defect passivation. Treatment with the most sterically hindered ortho-isomer not only prevents the formation of surficial 2D perovskite film, even at elevated temperatures, but also maximizes the passivation effect on both shallow- and deep-level defects. The ensuing PSCs achieve an efficiency of 23.9% with long-term operational stability (over 1000 hours). Importantly, a record efficiency of 21.4% for the perovskite module with an active area of 26 cm<sup>2<\/sup> was achieved.<\/p>\n<p><b>Co-authors: <\/b><br \/>\nCheng Liu<sup>1<\/sup>, Yi Yang<sup>1<\/sup>, Kasparas Rakstys<sup>2<\/sup> , Bin Ding<sup>1<\/sup>, Vytautas Getautis<sup>2<\/sup>, Yong Ding<sup>1<\/sup>, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin<sup>*1<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>(1) Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering, EPFL VALAIS, Sion, 1951, Switzerland.<br \/>\n(2) Department of Organic Chemistry, Kaunas University of Technology, Radvilenu pl. 19, Kaunas, 50254, Lithuania.<\/p>\n<h3>Biography<\/h3>\n<p>Prof. Nazeeruddin current research at <a href=\"http:\/\/gmf.epfl.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EPFL<\/a> focuses on Perovskite Solar Cells and Light-emitting diodes.
