In recent years, PSCs (perovskite solar cells) have generated great interest in the scientific communitydue to their high electrical photoconversion efficiencies and low raw material and processingcosts. One of the challenges in the development of these devices is related to the design of theload carrying layers (CTL), which are decisive in the performance of the cell. On the other hand, theMOFs (Metal-organic frameworks) are porous and crystalline coordination polymers in which theconnection between the metallic centers is given by organic ligands of diverse nature, they havebeen widely used for catalysis, storage, gas separation, drug delivery, etc. MOFs are attractivecandidates for use in CTLs because they are highly ordered materials. In addition, they can be usedboth as a hole transport layer (HTL) or as an electron transport layer (ETL) due to the possibility ofadjusting the energy levels and the band gap by simple modification of the metals or ligands
