Solar energy is the centre of attention and major need of the world. The advancement in the photovoltaic devices plays the key role in the path of solar energy applications. The progress in the perovskite solar cell technologies in the direction of their theoretical power conversion efficiency necessitates elusive control above the carrier dynamics all over the whole device. In the present investigation, a comparative study via SCAPS simulation has been done for the optimization of the device in the light of high power conversion efficiency of organic–inorganic perovskite-based photovoltaic solar cells. Perovskite absorber layers CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3SnI3 are sandwiched in between the TiO2 as electron transport layer (ETL) and spiro-OMeTAD as hole transport layer (HTL) to design the hetrostructures for the simulation. We have achieved enhancement in the power conversion efficiencies of both the devices as compared to the reported experimental and theoretical studies previously.
