Fabrication of Perovskite solar cell

Solar cell is a device that converts sunlight into electricity.

Basic operations of a solar cell are pictured in figure 1 to figure 3. Figure 4 shows the layers of an organic solar cell. Perovskite is the absorber layer. spiro-OMeTAD is the holes transport layer. TIO2 and FTO are the electrons transport layers. Glass is the substrate. Gold is used as a contact. Building differents layer on the glass substrate is known as the fabrication of perovskite solar cell. The attached video link describe the steps of fabrication.
