<title>Abstract</title>
<p> Metastability is a characteristic feature of perovskite solar cell (PSC) devices
that affects power rating measurements and general electrical behaviour. In this
work the metastability of different types of PSC devices is investigated through
current–voltage ( <italic>I</italic> – <italic>V</italic>
) testing and voltage dependent photoluminescence (PL-V) imaging. We show that
advanced <italic>I</italic> – <italic>V</italic> parameter
acquisition methods need to be applied for accurate PSC performance evaluation, and
that misleading results can be obtained when using simple fast <italic>I</italic> – <italic>V</italic> curves, which can lead to incorrect
estimation of cell efficiency. The method, as applied in this work, can also
distinguish between metastability and degradation, which is a crucial step towards
reporting stabilised efficiencies of PSC devices. PL-V is then used to investigate
temporal and spatial PL response at different voltage steps. In addition to the
impact on current response, metastability effects are clearly observed in the
spatial PL response of different types of PSCs. The results imply that a high
density of local defects and non-uniformities leads to increased lateral
metastability visible in PL-V measurements, which is directly linked to electrical
metastability. This work indicates that existing quantitative PL imaging methods and
point-based PL measurements of PSC devices may need to be revisited, as assumptions
such as the absence of lateral currents or uniform voltage bias across a cell area
may not be valid. </p>
