摘要
In recent years, perovskite-based solar cell technologies have sparked much interest. Organic–inorganic halide perovskites (OIHPs) are a type of perovskite that has shown promise in various optoelectronic applications. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of organic–inorganic perovskite materials is improving with new materials development. However, inorganic materials studied in labs have limited PCE. Lead-free tin halide CH3NH3SnX3 shows good PCE. In this work, we study the electrical characteristics of tin halide as a perovskite absorbing layer in planar heterojunction solar cells with the help of GPVDM solar cell simulation software. A comparative study of power conversion efficiency has been done for tin halide of chloride, bromide, and iodide. The effect of electron and hole drift–diffusion, carrier continuity equations in position space to represent charge flow within the device, Poisson’s equation, and charge carrier recombination has been studied in detail.
