Perovskite Solar Cells (PSC) are the fastest-growing generation of solar cells due to their high-power conversion efficiency (PCE) in a short period of time, simple synthesis process, high open-circuit voltage, and low cost. However, perovskite stability and the use of the toxic heavy metal of lead (Pb) are two significant challenges that still haunt the development of perovskite-based solar cells. This paper focuses on distinguishing and optimizing several key layers in the PSC structure
