Abstract

We report the laser irradiation of CH3NH3PbI3 solar cells to generate and control localized PbI2 degradation product. We show that by tuning the laser power and illumination time, we can controllably form a local excess of PbI2. High-resolution advanced multi-mapping techniques are used to highlight...
