Highlights The CuaAgm1Bim2In/CuI bilayer films are prepared simultaneously in situ by a one-step low-temperature gas-solid phase diffusion induced elemental reaction without spin coating. A new type of CuaAgm1Bim2In photovoltaic material was originally designed to reduce the bandgap of this class of materials from 2.06 to 1.78 eV by breaking the restriction of double perovskite structure with a ratio of Ag:Bi = 1:1. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of solar cell with a structure of FTO/TiO2/CuaAgm1Bim2In/CuI/carbon reached 2.76%, which is the highest PCE for CuaAgm1Bim2In absorbers.
