Abstract

Formamidinium cesium (FACs) perovskites solar cells have been shown to be among the most stable metal halide perovskites. Here, high-temperature data are presented which systematically and statistically demonstrate the high thermal operation of this system to temperatures in excess of 200 °C. Device measurements between 250 K and 490 K show that while some loss of performance is evident at higher temperature, this is driven by reversible halide segregation with no evidence of a structural phase transition over the measurement range probed. Moreover, upon reduction of the temperature back to ambient the power conversion efficiency is retained.
