2.1 Introduction

Photovoltaic (PV) devices based on metal halide perovskite semiconductors were first invented by our group in 2006 as an extension of the research on dye‐sensitized solar cells, and the first peer review paper was published in 2009 [1]. Similar to the method of fabricating dye‐sensitized solar cells, solution coating process is the main technology to prepare photovoltaic active layer (perovskite) and carrier transporting layers on electrode substrates. While having the advantage of a cost‐efficient solution processes, perovskite ...
