الوصف: | Several organic cations have been used to passivate perovskite films; however, selecting the optimal cation remains challenging. In this work, we carried out density functional theory calculations to understand the effects induced by 17 different organic cations on the passivation (P-cations) of thin two-dimensional P2MAn-1PbnI3n+1 perovskites films, where n = 1 and 2. We found that the interactions between different types of P-cations and the inorganic slab affect the length and angles of the bonds within the inorganic framework (PbI6-octahedra). In general, the binding mechanism includes the interactions of organic cations with the inorganic framework, which leads to the accumulation of electron density within the halides, indicative of Bronsted--Lowry acid-base interactions. Oxygenated groups facilitate additional H-bond formation through -OH and -COOH groups, promoting the localization of the electron density between layers and improving the energetic stability of the system. Based on the results and analysis, we found that three P-cations might have higher potential for real-life applications, namely 4-fluorophenylethylammonium (FPEA), phenylethylammonium (PEA) and butylammonium (BtA).
