Abstract Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are considered as the promising third generation solar cells due to their excellent photoelectric performance. However, the non-radiative recombination at the interfaces of the functional layers of PSCs affects the photoelectric performance and stability of the devices. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), as interface engineering materials to suppress non-radiative recombination at the device interfaces, have achieved practical results in fabricating highly efficient and stable PSCs. Therefore, this reviews summarizes the application of SAMs in the interface engineering of n-i-p PSCs, and also introduces non-radiative recombination pathways and SAMs. Finally, based on the current research trends of SAMs in PSCs, an outlook is made to facilitate the further development of PSCs technology.
