We propose a simple scenario where the superimposed phonon modes on the photoconductive spectra are experimental artifacts due to the invalid formula used in data analysis. By use of experimental and simulated data of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskites as a case study, we demonstrate that a correction term must...
