Post-Flight Analysis of Perovskite Solar Cells for NASA Materials International Space Station Experiment (MISSE)

Metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) attract considerable attention as a photovoltaic technology that could provide high-efficiency, low-cost power for space missions. PSCs were passively flown on the exterior of the International Space Station (ISS) for eight months to evaluate cell durability with exposure to the ambient space conditions, then returned to Earth for characterization. This study will provide a post-flight assessment of those cells.
