In this article, we study the J-V characteristic of a perovskite solar cell (PSC) prepared by the two-step method. PSCs were fabricated by methylammonium lead iodide using the sequential deposition method. We describe J-V curves using a modified dynamic electrical model based on an asymmetric electric field. In addition, we simulated the PSCs by solar cell capacitance simulator package to investigate the role of trap-density distribution in cell performance. The experimentally optimized device shows an enhancement in the opencircuit voltage (V OC) from 1.08 to 1.21 V. Simulation results show that the increase in V OC up to 1.15 V is corresponding to a trap-density of 2.38×10 15 cm −3. However, these results predict that a decrease in the trapdensity can increases the V OC and FF up to 1.19 V and 79% while the modified dynamic electrical model gives the J-V characteristic as well as experimental results. Our results suggest that the increase in V OC can be attributed to the asymmetric electric field at the interface of the perovskite layer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
