Impact of absorber layer thickness, defect density, and operating temperature on the performance of MAPbI3 solar cells based on ZnO electron transporting material
Open accessAbstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are the novel fourth-generation solar cells, with impressive progress in the last few years. MAPbI 3 is a cost-effective material used as an absorber layer in PSCs. Due to the different diffusion length of carriers, the electron transporting material (ETM) plays a vital role in PSCs' performance. ZnO ETM is a promising candidate for low-cost and high-efficiency photovoltaic technology. In this work, the normal n-i-p planar heterojunction structure has been simulated using SCAPS-1D. The influence of various parameters such as the defect density, the thickness of the MAPbI 3 layer, the temperature on fill factor, the open-circuit voltage, the short circuit current density, and the power conversion efficiency are investigated and discussed in detail. We found that a 21.42% efficiency can be obtained under a thickness of around 0.5 μm, and a total defect of 10 13 cm −3 at ambient temperature. These simulation results will help fabricate low-cost, high-efficiency, and low-temperature PSCs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
