Abstract

We demonstrate that nonvolatile CaCl₂ additives can significantly improve the film morphology of CH₃NH₃PbI₃. Unlike those volatile chlorinated additives, a small portion of Cl anions from CaCl₂ seem to enter into the CH₃NH₃PbI₃ crystal, yet most insulating CaCl₂ remains within the perovskite film, which is detrimental to perovskite solar cells.
