Abstract
Solar cells based on organic-inorganic perovskites (PVK) are the subject of several
researches in laboratories around the world. One of the most promising hybrid perovskite is the
methylammonium lead tri-iodide MAPbI3 that is suitable for sun light harvesting. But the MAPbI3
is a toxic material, so in this paper is proposed another nature friendly candidate which is the
methylammonium tin tri-iodide MASnI3. The proposed material is inserted into an n-i-p
heterojunction solar cell which structure is electron transport layer (ETL)/PVK/hole transport
layer (HTL). The used HTL is the PEDOT: PSS in combination with one of two ETLs which are
the PCBM and the IGZO. Simulation efforts using 1D SCAPS was carried. It is found that IGZO
ETL based solar cell yields a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared with PCBM
ETL based solar cell in the same thickness
