Constructing a two- and three-dimensional (2D/3D) heterojunction structure on the surface of a 3D perovskite film, termed 2D/3D engineering, is effective in elevating the stability of perovskite polycrystal-based photovoltaic and photoelectronic devices; however, it remains controversial whether this protocol is favorable or detrimental to the device performance. Here, we prepare a series of 2D/3D perovskite films by post-treating the perovskite polycrystalline film with different concentrations of phenethylammonium iodide (PEAI). Systematic spectroscopy and electrochemical studies illustrate that PEAI can penetrate the 3D perovskite network and eliminate the intrinsic trap states of perovskite polycrystals, while the 2D perovskite nanosheets enriched on the top of the polycrystalline film may introduce additional trap states, which manipulate the photoluminescence performance and dynamics of the as-prepared perovskite films in an opposite manner. Based on this finding, the strategy of optimizing the photophysical properties of the host 3D perovskite through 2D/3D engineering is elaborated, paving the way for fabricating high-performance and high-stability perovskite polycrystalline films.
