Among the 3rd generation thin film solar cells, Organic-Inorganic hybrid perovskite is a suitable low cost light harvesting layer to be used as a substitute of conventional ones to fabricate high efficiency photovoltaic (PV) cells. Such materials have the desired electronic and optical properties for PV applications, such as direct band gap, high absorption coefficient, high carrier mobility, and longer diffusion length. In this work, perovskite PV cells with the structure, FTO/Compact-TiO2(50 nm)/Meso-TiO2(150 nm)/Methylammonium lead tri-iodide(300 nm)/Spiro-OMETAD(200 nm)/Au (100 nm), were fabricated. The perovskite film was prepared using one step solution process.  TiO2 and Spiro-OMETAD are the electron transport material and hole transport material, respectively. Aforementioned solar cell structure reached up to maximum 16.51% efficiency (Voc = 1.095V, Jsc = 20.580mA/cm2, and fill factor = 71.7%). The performance of the cell is governed by the charge transport and recombination in the absorbing material but also by the charge extraction at the ETM/Perovskite and HTM/perovskite interfaces.   Charge transfer dynamics in  perovskite based samples with different HTM layers was explored using photo-luminescence (PL) technique. The obtained experimental results provide valuable indications for the design of highly efficient Organic-Inorganic perovskite PV cells.
