Achieving Reproducible and High-Efficiency (>21%) Perovskite Solar Cells with a Presynthesized FAPbI3 Powder

The conventional precursor mixture based on highly pure and expensive PbI2 (purity >99.99%) is problematic in commercializing perovskite solar cells (PSCs) because of a large deviation in the batch-to-batch photovoltaic performance due to underlying nonstoichiometry and/or the nonperovskite phase. Here, we report on reproducibly efficient (>21%) PSCs based on the ambient-temperature-stable δ-phase FAPbI3 powder, synthesized by reacting PbI2 (either homemade or low-grade commercial product with purity
