RESUMEN
In this work, we present the ion migration of CsPbIBr2 under illumination and impede it by incorporating the large cations of guanidinium (GA). A series of "probe-set-probe" operations are applied to assess the photoluminescence (PL) behavior spectrally and spatially, which is correlated to the ion migration-induced phase separation, of CsPbIBr2 and GAxCs1-xPbIBr2 perovskites. The local lattice distortion introduced by GA could reduce the strain gradient in GAxCs1-xPbIBr2 to inhibit the ion migration, leading to a stable PL spectrum and enhanced device stability under light stimulation. A solar cell with an optimized stoichiometric composition of GA0.1Cs0.9PbIBr2 delivers comparable photovoltaic performance and improved stability compared to those of CsPbIBr2-based perovskite solar cells, retaining 80% of its initial power conversion efficiency after being continuously bathed in light for 8 h under ambient conditions without encapsulation, while the CsPbIBr2 counterpart shows an efficiency that is <30% of its initial value under the same test condition.
