The Organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have achieved remarkable power conversion efficiencies (PCEs), yet their commercialization remains limited by interfacial recombination losses and insufficient operational stability. Here, we present a dual-interface engineering strategy that synergistically combines a Fe2O3-WO3 composite electron transport layer (ETL) with an ultrathin piperazine dihydriodide interlayer (IL) to address these challenges. The Fe2O3-WO3 composite, prepared via solution processing, integrates the stability and deep conduction band of Fe2O3 with the high electron mobility of WO3, forming uniform, transparent, and compact films that facilitate efficient electron extraction and suppressed recombination. Meanwhile, the IL at the perovskite/hole transport interface passivates surface defects, introduces interfacial dipoles for optimized energy-level alignment, and inhibits ion migration. Together, these modifications improve perovskite film morphology, reduce trap density, and enable superior charge transport. Devices incorporating composite ETL and IL achieved a champion PCE of 18.46% with a <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">VOC of 1.14 V, <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">JSC of 21.82 mA·cm−2, and <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">FF of 74.23%, outperforming single-oxide counterparts. Moreover, the dual-engineered devices exhibited enhanced stability, retaining ∼84% of their initial efficiency under prolonged operation. This work demonstrates that composite ETLs combined with molecular interfacial passivation provide a scalable pathway to efficient, stable, and reproducible PSCs.
