Similar substrate dependence on perovskite island formation has 60 perovskite. 14, 25 The photovoltaic parameters (Jsc, Voc) as a

relationship of the current density versus light intensity indicate
that collection efficiency is independent of light intensity, ruling
out space-charge effects .25
65 The Jsc of the nanorod devices is enhanced which could be
attributed to increased perovskite loading or/and increased charge
collection. The observed effect is validated by the IPCE action
spectra shown in Figure 3(b). The Jsc calculated from the IPCE
data correlates with the Jsc calculated from the j-V plots, tabulated
