The invention relates to a method for synthesis of films made of light-absorbing material with perovskite-like structure which can be used for fabrication of perovskite solar cells. The method for synthesis of films made of light-absorbing material with perovskite-like structure with a structural formula ACB3 is characterized by sequential deposition of a layer of a reagent C onto a layer of a reagent AB with a thickness determined by stoichiometry of the reaction followed by the immersion of the layers in a liquid or gaseous medium containing reagent B2 where component A states for CH3NH3+, (NH2)2CH+, C(NH2)3+, Cs+ or a mixture thereof, component B states for Cl−, Br−, I− or a mixture thereof, component C states for metals Sn, Pb, Bi, or their melts, oxides, salts. The technical result achieved using the claimed invention is a simple and fast method for fabrication of a layer of light-absorbing organic-inorganic material with a perovskite-like structure which is homogeneous due to the formation of a film of the intermediate phase AB-B2 with improved morphology on the surfaces of a large area due to rapid crystallization, which allows the obtained material to be used in solar cells of large area.
