| contents | Mobile ions play a key role in the degradation of perovskite solar cells, making their quantification essential for enhancing device stability. Various electrical measurements have been applied to characterize mobile ions. However, discerning between different ionic migration processes can be difficult. Furthermore, multiple measurements at different temperatures are usually required to probe different ions and their activation energies. Here, we demonstrate a new characterization technique based on measuring the thermally activated ion current (TAIC) of perovskite solar cells. The method reveals density, diffusion coefficient, and activation energy of mobile ions within a single temperature sweep and offers an intuitive way to distinguish mobile ion species. We apply the TAIC technique to quantify mobile ions of MAPbI3 and triple-cation perovskite solar cells. We find a higher activation energy and a lower diffusion coefficient in the triple-cation devices. TAIC measurements are a simple yet powerful tool to better understand ion migration in perovskite solar cells. |
