Abstract

A range of slow dynamic processes occurring in perovskite solar cells have been linked to ionic migration, including J–V hysteresis and long photovoltage rise and decay times. This work demonstrates the remarkably slow response time of triple mesoporous carbon-based cells, containing the additive 5-...
