Inclusive physical and photoelectric analysis revealed that doping with a small amount ofalkali-metal formate leads to crystal growth and reduction of grain boundaries, and further passivates orinhibits bulk and surface defects. As a result, the photogenerated charge recombination was reduced andthe charge carrier transport was improved, leading to improved PSC performance.
