Recent experiments show that the interface effects are caused by the coupling of the electron bands and the pairing of surface contact geometry. In particular, it has been experimentally revealed that the transition from a planar to a rough interface improves many photoelectric parameters of the device. This means that the value of the fractal dimension of the interface may be key factor in device performance. It is possible to formulate two problems: firstly, the understanding on simple models why the electrical properties are improved with fractal interfaces, and, secondly, to discuss one of the most promising approaches in modern electronics, namely technology of radiation applications in the creation of rough interfaces.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>solar cells</kwd><kwd>perovskite</kwd><kwd>interface</kwd><kwd>fractal</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">This work was supported by the Committee for Coordinating the Development of Science and Technology under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan, contract No. F3-003.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Giorgi G., Yamashita K.
