However, critical issues of long-term stability have to be solved for commercialization. The severe weakness of the state-of-the-art PSCs against moisture originates mainly from the hygroscopic organic cations. Here, rubidium (Rb) is suggested as a promising candidate for an inorganic–organic mixed cation system to enhance moisture-tolerance and photovoltaic performances of formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI3). Partial incorporation of Rb in FAPbI3 tunes the tolerance factor and stabilizes the photoactive perovskite structure. Phase conversion from hexagonal yellow FAPbI3 to trigonal black FAPbI3 becomes favored when Rb is introduced. The authors find that the absorbance and fluorescence lifetime of 5% Rb-incorporated FAPbI3 (Rb0.05FA0.95PbI3) are enhanced than bare FAPbI3. Rb0.05FA0.95PbI3-based PSCs exhibit a best power conversion efficiency of 17.16%, which is much higher than that of the FAPbI3 device (13.56%). Moreover, it is demonstrated that the Rb0.05FA0.95PbI3 film shows superior stability against high humidity (85%) and the full device made with the mixed perovskite exhibits remarkable long-term stability under ambient condition without encapsulation, retaining the high performance for 1000 h.
