B) Electrical Characterization Stability under illumination
Figure S 6 a) Time dependent Current density (solid lines) and Voc (dashed lines) is shown. The cells without h-BN and GA exhibit faster degradation under constant illumination compared to the complete cell with h-BN and GA. (solid lines is Jsc and dashed lines is Voc ) b) Power conversion efficiency of the cells with h-BN and GA (red), cell w/h-BN and W/O GA (black), W/O h-BN and W/O GA (green). Complete cells show a very stable behavior under constant illumination. Even though a decrease was observed in the current density, there is a constant increase in open circuit voltage indicating that efficiency becomes stable with time.

Figure S 12 (a) J-V measurement of MASnI3 based solar cells with and without GA. Devices prepared with GA show better stability in air. (All devices prepared in air). (b) J-V measurement of MASnI3 based devices which are fabricated by following the same procedures as shown in refs. [5] and [13], Type I and Type II respectively. Type I and Type II cells have the similar architecture (FTO/d-TiO2/mp-TiO2/MASnI3/spiro-OMETAD/Au), but different ETL, HTL and Au thicknesses. The table shows the detailed comparison of our cells prepared and cells reported in the literature.

Figure S 13 (a) External quantum efficiency of the champion cell with integrated photocurrent (thick black line). Maximum possible Jsc, if the QE is 100% over the spectrum, is 49.4mA/cm2 and the expected Jsc is 42.32mA/cm2. The EQE spectrum for reference silicon cells is also shown under A.M 1.5. (b) The plot of reflective absorbtion and internal quantum efficiency (IQE) versus wavelength. The inset shows the composition profile and approximate band diagram of the cell.
The integrated current Density(Jsc) = 42.33 mA/cm2 Max possible Jsc with 100% absorption= 49.44 mA/cm2
