Abstract

Abstract : In article number 1902901, Hieu T. Nguyen and co‐workers employ spectrally and spatially resolved absorptivity at sub‐bandgap wavelengths of perovskite materials, extracted from their luminescence spectra, to study degradation across perovskite and perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. The absorptivity is demonstrated to reflect real degradation in the perovskite film and is much more robust and sensitive than its luminescence spectral peak position, representing its optical bandgap and intensity.
