- The performance and stabi l i t y of metal halide perovskite sola r cells strongly depend on precursor materials and deposition methods adopted during the perovskite layer preparation. There are often a number of different formation pathways available when preparing perovskite films. Since the precise pathway and intermediary mechanisms affect the resulting properties of the cells, in situ studies have been conducted to unravel t h e mechanisms involved in the formation and evolution of perovskite phases. These studies contributed to the development of procedures to improve the structural, morphological, and optoelectronic properties of the films and to move beyond spin-coating, with the use of scalable techniques. To explore the performance and degradation of devices, operando studies have been conducted on solar cells subjected to normal operating conditions, or stressed with humidity, high temperatures, and light radiation. This review presents an update of studies conducted in situ using a wide range of structural, imaging, and spectroscopic techniques, involving the formation/ degradation of halide perovskites. Operando studies are also addressed, emphasizing the latest degradation results for perovskite solar cells. These works demonstrate the importance of in situ and operando studies to achieve the level of stabi l i t y required for scale-up and consequent commercial deployment of these cells.

- Organic-inorganic metal-halide perovskite materials offer a promising route to reducing the dollars-per-watt cost of solar energy due to their good optoelectronic properties and facile, scalable processing. Compositional tuning allows for the preparation of absorbers with band gaps tailor-made for specific tandem and single-junction applications, but photoinduced phase segregation in mixed-halide materials leads to the formation of low-band-gap regions that reduce the voltage of devices. This work explores the structural origins of photoinduced phase segregation in FA(y)Cs(1-y)Pb(BrxI1-x)(3) perovskite alloys. We use synchrotron X- ray diffraction to map the solvus between the cubic and cubic-tetragonal mixed-phase region and time-dependent photoluminescence to assess stability under illumination. We show that the correlation between crystallographic phase and phase-segregation behavior is imperfect, so phase is not the sole determinant of optical stability. Instead, we consider several possible mechanisms that could underlie the dependence of optical stability on perovskite composition.
