Hybrid metal halide perovskites have demonstrated remarkable performances in modern photovoltaics, although their stabilities remain limited. We assess the capacity to advance their properties by relying on interfacial modulators featuring helical chirality based on P , M -(1-methylene-3-methyl-imidazolium)[6]helicene iodides. We investigate their characteristics, demonstrating comparable charge injection for enantiomers and the racemic mixture. Overall, they maintain the resulting photovoltaic performance while improving operational stability, challenging the role of helical chirality in the interfacial modulation of perovskite solar cells.
