The photovoltaic solar cells are attracting great deal of interest from across the globe due to their potential of producing electrical energy by harvesting photon energy, available on the earth, which is abundant and available free of cost. However, the cost of electricity production and the efficiency with which it is produced are important attributes. Subsequently, several solar cell generations have been emerged in order to chase the low cost-high efficiency race. Conversion of abundant photon energy into electrical energy with high efficiency at low cost is possible with emerging photovoltaic solar cell i.e Perovskite. Perovskite solar cell, a new type of promising photovoltaic solar cell, exhibited a fast improvement in efficiency from 3.8 in 2009 to 24.2 in 2019. The emergence of PSCs has revolutionized photovoltaic research and development because of their high efficiencies, inherent flexibility, the diversity of materials/synthetic methods that can be employed to manufacture them, and the various possible device architectures. Further optimization of material compositions and device architectures will help further improve efficiency and device stability. But their stability is the major bottleneck for their possible commercialization.
