Abstract

<jats:p>The use of metal‐halide perovskites in photovoltaic applications has become increasingly attractive due to their low‐temperature manufacturing processes and long charge‐carrier lifetimes. High‐bandgap perovskite solar cells have potential for indoor applications due to their efficient absorption of the spectrum of light‐emitting diodes (LEDs). This study investigates the performance of high‐bandgap perovskite solar cells under a wide range of lighting conditions, including a commercially available white LED lamp with a 5–40 000 lx illuminance range and a standard 1 sun reference. The performance of CH<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>NH<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>PbI<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>‐based perovskite solar cells to CH<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>NH<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>Pb(I<jats:sub>0.8</jats:sub>,Br<jats:sub>0.2</jats:sub>)<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> solar cells with varying electron transport layers (ETL), including PCBM, PCBM:CMC, and CMC:ICBA fullerene combinations, is compared. Because the spectral response of perovskite solar cells covers the white LED spectrum very well, the major performance difference is related to the open‐circuit voltage and fill factor. The cells with the CH3NH3Pb(I<jats:sub>0.8</jats:sub>,Br<jats:sub>0.2</jats:sub>)<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> absorber layer and the CMC:ICBA ETL demonstrate superior open‐circuit voltage and therefore a high efficiency above 29% at 200–500 lx, typical for indoor lighting.</jats:p>
