Electric fields arising from the distribution of charge in metal halide perovskite solar cells are critical for understanding the many weird and wonderful optoelectronic properties displayed by these devices. Mobile ionic defects are…
Ionic migration in organo-halide perovskites plays an important role in operation of perovskite based solar cells and light emitting diodes. Despite the ionic migration being a reversible process, it often leads to worsening of perovskite…
It is unmistakably paradoxical that the weakest point of the photoactive organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite is its instability against light. Why and how perovskites break down under light irradiation and what happens at the atomistic…
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…
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…
Previous studies of reverse-bias stability in perovskite solar cells have focused primarily on voltage controlled reverse-bias tests. Here we instead present an investigation of perovskite solar cell degradation under well-defined, constant…
Perovskite-based solar cells are promising due to their rapidly improving efficiencies, but suffer from instability issues. Recently it has been claimed that one of the key contributors to the instability of perovskite solar cells is ion…
The basic processes of perovskite radiation resistance are discussed for photo- and high-energy electron irradiation. It is shown that ionization of iodine ions and a staged mechanism of elastic scattering (upon intermediate scattering on…

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…
In this perspective, we explore the insights into the device physics of perovskite solar cells gained from modeling and simulation of these devices. We discuss a range of factors that influence the modeling of perovskite solar cells,…
Halide perovskites make efficient solar cells due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties, but suffer from several stability issues. The characterization of the degradation processes is challenging because of the limitations in the…
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.…
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites present a number of challenges for first-principles atomistic materials modelling. These `plastic crystals' feature dynamic processes across multiple length-scales and time-scales, which include: (i)…
We explore the degradation behaviour under continuous illumination and direct oxygen exposure of inverted unencapsulated formamidinium(FA)0.83Cs0.17Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3, CH3NH3PbI3, and CH3NH3PbI3-xClx perovskite solar cells. We continuously test…
Perovskite solar cells are notorious for exhibiting transient behaviour not seen in conventional inorganic semiconductor devices. Significant inroads have been made into understanding this fact in terms of rapid ion migration, now a…
One of the key challenges for future development of efficient and stable metal halide perovskite solar cells is related to the migration of ions in these materials. Mobile ions have been linked to the observation of hysteresis in the…
Exposure to environmental factors is generally expected to cause degradation in perovskite films and solar cells. Herein, we show that films with certain defect profiles can display the opposite effect, healing upon exposure to oxygen under…
