Micelle-Assisted Formation of Self-Assembled Monolayers for Efficient and Stable Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells (Adv. Energy Mater. 18/2025)

Tandem Solar Cells

In article number 2405675, Zhiqin Ying, Jingsong Sun, Xi Yang, Jichun Ye, and co-workers address Me-4PACz self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) aggregation and poor wettability via a micelle-assisted adsorption strategy. Micelles formed by 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octyl sulfate encapsulate SAMs, improving adsorption uniformity, interfacial compatibility, and coverage. This optimizes energy alignment, reduces carrier recombination, refines perovskite crystallization, significantly boosting efficiency and stability of perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells.
