Saurabh Kumar Prajapati, Ajay Shekhar Pandey, Dr. Varun Kumar

Abstract


Electrical Performance and numerical simulation of perovskite solar cells were carried out utilizing perovskite materials such "methyl ammonium lead halide (MAPbX3, MA= CH3NH3, X=I, Br, Cl)" with different absorption coefficients with the help of SCAPS tools and calculated the open-circuit voltage (Voc), fill factor (FF), power conversion efficiency (PCE), and short-circuit current density (Jsc) of the MAPbI3, MAPbBr3 and MAPbCl3 material used as active layer, respectively. The hole transport layer (HTL) in the predicted structure of the perovskite solar cell is made of the copper thiocyanate (CuSCN) material. The features structural parameters for CH3NH3PbI3 provide better results as compared to CH3NH3PbBr3 and CH3NH3PbCl3 perovskite solar cells at various absorption coefficients such as 105, 106 and 107.
