Drift-diffusion models that account for the motion of both electronic and ionic charges are important tools for explaining the hysteretic behaviour and guiding the development of metal halide perovskite solar cells. Furnishing numerical…
Previously, we proposed that the polarization and capacitive charge in \ce{CH3NH3PbI3} screens the external electric field that hinders charge transport. We argue here that this screening effect is in significant part responsible for the…
Hysteresis in the current-voltage characteristics of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite-based solar cells is one of the fundamental aspects of these cells that we do not understand well. One possible cause, suggested for the hysteresis, is…
The anomalous hysteresis is reported in photo current density-voltage (J-V) curves of perovskite solar cells. The origins responsible for hysteresis are primarily attributed to ferroelectricity, trapping/de-trapping, and ions migration.…
A dynamic electrical model is introduced to investigate the hysteretic effects in the I-V characteristics of perovskite based solar cells. By making a simple ansatz for the polarization relaxation, our model is able to reproduce…
Ionic migration has been proposed as a possible cause of photovoltaic current-voltage hysteresis in hybrid perovskite solar cells. However, a major objection to this hypothesis is that hysteresis can be reduced by changing the interfacial…
Many recent advances in metal halide perovskite solar cell (PSC) performance are attributed to surface treatments which passivate interfacial trap states, minimise charge recombination and boost photovoltages. Surprisingly, these…
Fundamental electronic processes such as charge-carrier transport and recombination play a critical role in determining the efficiency of hybrid perovskite solar cells. The presence of mobile ions complicates the development of a clear…

To overcome the challenges associated with poor temporal stability of perovskite solar cells, methods are required that allow for fast iteration of fabrication and characterisation, such that optimal device performance and stability may be…
Metal halide perovskite solar cells have gained widespread attention due to their high efficiency and high defect tolerance. The absorbing perovskite layer is as a mixed electron-ion conductor that supports high rates of ion and charge…
Hysteretic effects are investigated in perovskite solar cells in the standard FTO/TiO$_2$/CH$_3$NH$_3$PbI$_{3-x}$Cl$_x$/spiro-OMeTAD/Au configuration. We report normal (NH) and inverted hysteresis (IH) in the J-V characteristics occurring…
Perovskite solar cells (PSC) are shown to behave as coupled ionic-electronic conductors with strong evidence that the ionic environment moderates both the rate of electron-hole recombination and the band offsets in planar PSC. Numerous…
A model is derived for the frequency- and time-domain opto-electronic response of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) that emphasizes the role of charge carrier exchange, .i.e. extraction and injection, from (to) the perovskite through the…
Halide perovskite semiconductors respond to electric fields in a way that varies across time and length scales. We discuss the microscopic processes that give rise to the macroscopic polarization of these materials, ranging from the optical…

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as a promising photovoltaic technology, already achieving efficiencies surpassing 25%. However, effects such as hysteresis are commonly observed due to the interplay of ionic and electronic…
Dynamic hysteresis effects have been long known to occur in the J-V characteristics of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), with the ionic migration being identified as the primary factor. The hysteretic effects impacted early studies by the…
In this paper, we consider a drift-diffusion charge transport model for perovskite solar cells, where electrons and holes may diffuse linearly (Boltzmann approximation) or nonlinearly (e.g. due to Fermi-Dirac statistics). To incorporate…
