The main obstacle to the commercialization of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) solar cells is stability. Hence understanding degradation routes within the solar cell is essential. Traditional characterization methods have so far either monitored global properties, which precludes a better knowledge of local degradation processes, or induced some type of degradation, which conflates results in in-situ degradation studies of perovskite solar cells. In this paper, we describe a non-invasive technique for the in-situ analysis of the degradation of the active layer of an inverted HOIP solar cell. Utilizing the phenomenon of coherent light propagation in thin film layer stacks, we were able to see lead (II)iodide formation over time in a fully functional perovskite solar cell, which is an undeniable by-product of degradation. We were able to quantify the vertical distribution of the degradation product along the thickness of the active layer by using the measured reflectance of the entire solar cell as the input data for the optical modeling.
