In the past decade, organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have begun to be increasingly studied worldwide owing to the superior properties of perovskite material. However, some issues have delayed their commercialization, such as their long‐term stability, cost reduction, scale‐up ability, and efficiency. The introduction of sulfur to PSCs can relieve the above issues because sulfur can passivate interfacial trap states, suppress charge recombination, and inhibit ion migration, thereby enhancing the stability of PSCs. Furthermore, PbS bonds provide new channels for carrier extraction. Herein, the sulfur‐based compounds utilized in PSCs are summarized and classified according to their functions in the different layers of PSCs. The results indicate that these sulfur‐based compounds have efficiently promoted the commercialization of PSCs. It is hoped that this review can help others understand the intrinsic phenomena of sulfur‐based PSCs and motivate additional investigations.
