Molecule occupancy by a n-butylamine treatment to facilitate the conversion of PbI2 to perovskite in sequential deposition.

Herein, we propose a new approach of molecule occupancy via a vapor treatment to facilitate the conversion of PbI2 to perovskite in sequential deposition. We have shown that the morphology of PbI2 and the subsequent crystallization of perovskite can be effectively tuned, thus leading to the elimination of residual PbI2 and promotion of perovskite growth.
