Perovskite solar cell using HTLs copper iodide and spiro-OMeTAD comparative analysis in terms of efficiency and...

The researcher's nature to search for better solar cells despite their performance issues has engendered efficient solar cells. The general idea behind solar cell design is similar for all the structures except for substance selection and the imposition of a morphological order, which greatly affects its performance. A solar panel comprised of particular self-designed solar cell structures are utilized to harness energy and convert optical signals to electrical signals. Research on solar cell design is crucial for future communication systems. The morphological order of different layers demonstrates the performance of solar cells. Some of the electron transport layers (ETLs) and the hole transport layers (HTLs) employ toxic substances that have detrimental environmental effects. We present a comparative analysis of perovskite solar cell (PSC) design and simulation using SCAPS software. With the integration of two different HTLs, Spiro-OMeTAD and CuI, the individual outcomes are effective. The results illustrate that the proposed design is efficient. Replacing the HTL with CuI also showed enough competitive results as compared to existing models. Present and future solar cell design research demonstrates its importance in optical wireless communication, free-space optical communication, light communication, and other communication systems.
