Verification and Mitigation of Proton‐Induced Non‐Ionizing Damage in Perovskite Solar Cells for Space Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐halide perovskite solar cells offer high‐efficiency power for orbital missions but suffer from permanent proton‐induced degradation. This work identifies non‐ionizing energy loss (NIEL) as the primary driver of irreversible failure, inducing atomic displacements and microcracks in the high‐fluence regime. Through energy‐tuned mapping and scalable
