Reduced‐dimensional (2D or quasi‐2D) perovskites have recently attracted considerable interest due to their superior long‐term stability. The nature of the intercalating cations plays a key role in determining the physicochemical properties and stability of the quasi‐2D perovskites. Here, the thermal stability of a series of 2D Ruddlesden−Popper (RP) perovskites is studied using seven types of intercalating cations with increasing linear carbon‐chain length from ethylammonium (EA) to n‐dodecylammonium (DA) through a high‐throughput platform. The results show that long‐chain cations in quasi‐2D perovskite films lead to strong steric hindrance between adjacent perovskite domains, thus suppressing Ostwald ripening during the thermal‐aging process. For short‐chain cations, increased‐dimensional phase redistribution during the aging period is observed, which can benefit a concomitant regeneration of the 3D/3D‐like perovskite phases. The impact of steric hindrance on structural reconfiguration and the subsequent phase redistribution in quasi‐2D perovskites are systematically characterized by UV–vis absorption spectra, photoluminescence spectra, and X‐ray diffraction patterns. Due to the steric hindrance effect, an optimal chain length is found to maximize film stability by balancing the water/oxygen resistance and increased‐dimensional phase redistribution. This study provides new insight into the thermal stability of quasi‐2D perovskites. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
