Over the past decade, organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) have shown unprecedented growth in power conversion efficiency (PCE) from 3.8% to 25.7%. However, intrinsic thermal instability and lead toxicity are obstacles limiting its large–scale commercialization. Thus, all-inorgani...
