    ACIGS solar cells are exposed to targeted radiation to probe the front and back interfaces of the absorber to assess the impact of space environments on these systems. These data suggest ACIGS cells are more radiation‐hard than early CIGS devices likely due to the lower defect densities and more ideal interfaces in the ACIGS system. A combination ofJ–Vand external quantum efficiency measurements indicates some improvement in the performance of the device due to the effects of local heating in the dominant ionizing electronic energy loss regime of proton irradiation that anneal the upper CdS/ACIGS interface. However, nonionizing energy losses at the base of the solar cell also appear to inhibit minority carrier collection from the back of the cell at the ACIGS/Mo interface, which is discussed in terms of defect‐mediated changes in the doping profile, the Ga/Ga+In ratio, and impurity composition after proton irradiation.

    Formamidinium cesium (FACs) perovskites solar cells have been shown to be among the most stable metal halide perovskites. Here, high-temperature data are presented which systematically and statistically demonstrate the high thermal operation of this system to temperatures in excess of 200 °C. Device measurements between 250 K and 490 K show that while some loss of performance is evident at higher temperature, this is driven by reversible halide segregation with no evidence of a structural phase transition over the measurement range probed. Moreover, upon reduction of the temperature back to ambient the power conversion efficiency is retained.
