ABSTRACT Efficient electron extraction at the electron transport layer (ETL)/metal interface is critical for high‐performance perovskite solar cells (PSCs), which is fundamentally governed by interfacial energy‐level alignment; however, the microscopic mechanism by which low‐resistance contacts are established at fullerene/metal interfaces remains poorly understood.
