Popis: Interface engineering is one of the promising strategies for the long-term stabilization of perovskite solar cells, preventing chemical decomposition induced by external agents and promoting fast charge transfer. Recently, MXenes-2D structured transition metal carbides and nitrides with various functionalization (=O,-F,-OH) demonstrated high potential for mastering the work function in halide perovskite absorbers and significantly improved the n-type charge collection in solar cells. This work demonstrates that MXenes allow for efficient stabilization of perovskite solar cells besides improving their performances. We introduce a new mixed composite bathocuproine:MXene, i.e., (BCP:MXene) interlayer at the interface between an electron-transport layer (ETL) and a metal cathode in the p-in device structure. Our investigation demonstrates that the use of BCP:MXene interlayer slightly increases the power conversation efficiency (PCE) for PSCs (from 16.5 for reference to 17.5%) but dramatically improves the out of Glove-Box stability. Under ISOS-L-2 light soaking stress at 63$\pm$ 1.5{\textdegree}C, The T80 (time needed to reduce efficiency down to 80% of the initial one) period increased from 460 h to > 2300 h.
