We
report on the impact of γ radiation (0–500 Gy)
on triple-cation Cs0.15MA0.10FA0.75Pb(Br0.17I0.83)3 perovskite solar
cells. A set of experiments was designed to reveal the individual
contributions of the hole-collecting bottom electrode, perovskite
absorber, and electron transport layer (ETL) to the overall solar
cell degradation under radiation exposure. We show that the glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS
hole-collecting electrode withstands a 500 Gy dose without any losses
in the solar cell performance. In contrast, the perovskite absorber
films and PC61BM ETL are very sensitive to γ rays,
as can be concluded from the radiation-induced decay of the solar
cell efficiency by ∼32–41%. Red shift of the perovskite
emission bands and strong enhancement of the photoluminescence suggest
that γ rays induce phase segregation of iodine-rich and bromine-rich
domains, which represents the first reported example of the radiation-induced
halide phase separation in perovskite films. The degradation pathway
revealed here emphasizes the need for developing a new generation
of metal halide absorbers and ETL materials with improved radiation
stability to enable potential space applications of perovskite photovoltaics.
