abstract::
the instability of pscs remains a significant challenge, as they tend to degrade upon exposure to environmental factors, such as ultraviolet (uv) radiation, oxygen, humidity, and temperature. the origins have been linked to halide segregation, ion migration, and decomposition. in previous studies, various environmental factors have been often treated as independent variables while the evolution of the solar cells' pce was monitored so that different engineering approaches can be identified to mitigate the undesirable instability of pscs. however, during psc degradation, apart from the macroscopic device performance, other properties of the different layers involved and their interfaces also undergo continuous changes, such as material composition and their optical properties (e.g. absorption and photoluminescence (pl)), leading to changes in the electrical properties and thermal environment of the device.
in this work, we introduce a novel local electro-optical scanning technique to monitor in-situ temperature fluctuations, photoluminescence (pl) intensity, and changes in power conversion efficiency (pce) of two distinct compositions of pscs (fa0.9ma0.1pbi3 & fa0.87ma0.13pbi2.87br0.13) at the nanoscale during degradation. this method leverages inorganic er3 doped nayf4 colloidal nanoparticles. to the best of our knowledge, this is the first instance where the correlation between nanoscale temperature elevation inside solar cells and degradation has been experimentally unveiled.
