“…Our study's findings demonstrate that when TiO 2 thickness increases, all photovoltaic parameters rise as well. This is explained by the TiO 2 layer's fractional absorption of incoming light and its greater transmittance, which prevents solar irradiance from reaching the perovskite skeleton [35]. Ranging the thickness from 30 to 100 nm causes the QE versus wavelength curve Effect of Electron Transport Layers, Interface Defect Density and Working...…”

Perovskite solar cells have garnered significant attention from solar cell researchers due to their potential for achieving high efficiency, primarily attributed to their exceptional Electron Transport layer (ETL). One of the key elements of perovskite solar cells for transporting electrons to generate current is the ETL material. Moreover, there is a promising avenue for enhancing stability and reducing fabrication costs by substituting the transport layer. In this study, TiO2 and SnO2 were used as ETL materials in the architecture of perovskite solar cells for a comparative analysis between two devices featuring distinct structures: TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3/Spiro-OMeTAD and SnO2/CH3NH3PbI3/Spiro-OMeTAD. To evaluate the performance of each electron transport layer (ETL), the SCAPS 1D tool was employed. The investigation involved varying the thickness of the electron transport layers, interface defect density and working temperature, allowing for a comprehensive assessment of key parameters such as voltage at open circuit (Voc), short circuit current density (Jsc), fill factor (FF), and overall efficiency (PCE%). Remarkably, when employing SnO2 as the ETL, the achieved efficiency stands at 10.10 %. In contrast, utilizing TiO2 as the ETL yields a slightly higher efficiency of 12.84%. These findings underline the nuanced influence of transport layer materials on the overall performance of perovskite solar cells.

“…The instability caused by organic compounds in PSC has been a major concern for researchers [17,18]. The vastly used state-of-art hole transport material (HTM), Spiro-OMeTAD demonstrates hygroscopic nature, tendency to crystalize, and vulnerability to both moisture and heat, as such must be replaced with a cost-effective and stable HTM having high hole mobility with ease of synthesis [19,20].…”

The toxic lead component as well as the expensive and less stable spiro-OMeTAD in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) pose a great deal of hindrance to their commercial viability. Herein, a computational approach towards modeling and simulation of all inorganic cesium tin-germanium triiodide (CsSnGeI3) based perovskite solar cell was proposed and implemented using solar cell capacitance simulator (SCAPS–1D) tool. Aluminium doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) and Copper Iodide (CuI) were used as electron and hole transport layers (ETL and HTL) respectively. The initial device without any optimization gave a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 24.826%, fill factor (FF) of 86.336%, short circuit current density (Jsc) of 26.174 mA/cm2 and open circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.099 V. On varying the aforementioned parameters individually while keeping others constant, the optimal values are 1000 nm for absorber thickness, 1014 cm-3 for absorber layer defect density, 50 nm for ETL thickness, 1017 cm-3 for ETL doping concentration and 260 K for temperature. Simulating with these optimized values results to PCE of 25.459%, Voc of 1.145 V, Jsc of 25.241 mA/cm2, and a FF of 88.060%. These results indicate that the CsSnGeI3 is a viable alternative absorbing layer for usage in the design of a high PCE perovskite solar cell device.

With the massive breakthrough recorded in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) from 3.8 % to > 25 %, PSCs have attracted considerable attention in both the academia and industries. However, some challenges remain as barrier in realizing its deployment. To develop a highly efficient PSCs as well as environmentally benign device, simulation and optimization of such devices is desirable. Its impractical as well as wastage of time and money to design a solar cell without simulation works. It minimizes not only the risk, time and money rather analyzes layers’ properties and role to optimize the solar cell to best performance. Numerical modeling to describe PV thin layer devices is a convenient tool to better understand the basic factors limiting the electrical parameters of the solar cells and to increase their performance. In this review article, we focused on the recent advances in modelling and optimization of PSCs using SCAPS-1D with emphasis on absorber and electron transport medium (ETM) thickness.
