Solar cell, photoabsorber layer, and forming method of photoabsorber layer

Abstract

A solar cell comprises a first electrode, a second electrode opposite to the first electrode, and a photoabsorber layer located between the first electrode and the second electrode and including a first layer and a second layer. The first layer contains a first compound which has a perovskite structure represented by the composition formula A1M1X13, where A1 is a monovalent cation, M1 is a divalent cation, and X1 is a halogen anion. The second layer contains a second compound which has a perovskite structure represented by the composition formula A2M2X23, where A2 is a monovalent cation, M2 is a divalent cation, and X2 is a halogen anion, and has a different composition from the first compound. At least one of the first compound in the first layer and the second compound in the second layer has a single orientation.
