Abstract:
This work presents an inverted planar NH₂CH = NH₂PbI₃ (FAPbI₃) perovskite solar cell. FAPbI₃ perovskite and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) are deposited on the PEDOT:PSS/fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrate by the single-step method. The perovskite films have been characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), X-ray diffraction (XRD). The FAPbI₃ solar cell with short-circuit current density (J) = 14.48 mA/cm², open-circuit voltage (V) = 0.88 V, fill factor (FF) = 68%, and power conversion efficiency (PCE) = 8.62%, respectively.

Steps in the Modeling Process
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
