Abstract Perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) that achieved notable progress in recent years (the highest power conversion efficiency is 22%) have the potential to play an important role in future photovoltaic industry. The theoretical analysis of perovskite-based solar cells is important to further performance improvement. This review mainly introduces the latest theoretical researches of perovskite-type solar cells on structures, electrical parameters of functional layers and optimum thicknesses. The theoretical researches of absorbing layer electrical properties based on cells with new hole transport material layer are introduced in view of cell′s stability especially. This paper aims to help researchers to understand the internal mechanism of perovskite solar cells by summarizing these theoretical researches.
