Abstract— High-performance solar-cell is designed for lead-free perovskite materials, synthesis of using for the
organometallic halides. The perovskite materials having a high-efficiency charge carrier and identified low-cost materials
based commercial photo-voltaic cell. It is an unusually breakthrough of the drawback of high-efficiency photo-voltaic solar-
cell because in this solar-cell replaced harmful lead using various perovskite materials like (Sn

(0 ≤ x ≤ 1). This material is having the band gaps from 1.3 to 2.0 eV, and it is suitable
for an optoelectronic application's range, from single junction devices and top cells for placement to light-emitting layer. The
power efficiency of lead-free perovskite solar-cell (LFPSCs) is more than 27%. Which has ABO

successfully lead-free perovskite solar-cell (LFPSCs).

I. INTRODUCTION
Last few years, in this field lots of work and developing
many new types of solar cell material. Lead is a very harmful
element for our environment. So we work on this field and
remove to lead in solar cell and developing new type solar
cell synthesis from Sn and Ge. It’s a fourth generation solar
cell full fill our requirement of energy and more efficient
from the traditional solar cell. Perovskites material having
lots of physical property one of the most important properties
of these materials easily shows the PV properties. In this
research we use orgenomatlic perovskite solar cell material

(x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) [1].This solar
cell performance high efficient solar cell and having a
traditional perovskite structure. Remarkable work on thin
film fabrication such as thermal co-evaporation in high
vacuum, sequential deposition, vapor assisted solution
process (VASP), chemical vapor deposition, solvent
engineering, intermolecular exchange, has led to this extreme
development [2]. The lead-free perovskite materials for solar
cell application reported so far, tin-based perovskites which
have the chemical formula of ASnX
3
where A can be Ge,
methylammonium (MA) and X can be I, Br, Cl or F, are the
most promising substitutions since Sn and Pb both belong to
group 14 of the periodic table and thus are predictable to
possess comparable physical and chemical properties. As a
result, the nature of the chemical bonding becomes more
covalent in the case of ASnI
3
systems because of the
relatively larger degree of orbital overlap in the shorter Sn-I
bond compared to the Pb-I bond. The consequences of this
subtle difference in chemical bonding have a strong impact
on the semiconducting properties of the materials.

in Fig. 2 [3]. The precursor solutions were spin coated onto
TiO2 coated substrates to form a dark-brown tin perovskite

compound.
