Design and Modelling of Eco-Friendly CH<sub>3</sub>NH<sub>3</sub>SnI<sub>3</sub>-Based Perovskite Solar Cells with Suitable Transport Layers

An ideal n-i-p perovskite solar cell employing a Pb free CH<sub>3</sub>NH<sub>3</sub>SnI<sub>3</sub> absorber layer was suggested and modelled. A comparative study for different electron transport materials has been performed for three devices keeping CuO hole tra...
