Ag diffused across the PCBM layer increased the trap density and down-shifted the energy level of the perovskite layer. Fortunately, PCBM/ZnO layer efficiently suppressed the Ag diffusion, resulting in a perovskite solar cell with PCE of 18.1%.

The presence of excess PbI2 can affect the structure of perovskites and photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells. Increased open-circuit voltage could be achieved by introducing proper PbI2. However, shorter carrier lifetime and increased recombination and resistance were observed when an excess of PbI2 was used.

Perovskite solar cells are emerging photovoltaic devices with PCE of above 25%. Perovskite are suitable light absorber materials in solar cells with excellent properties like appropriate band gap energy, long carrier lifetime and diffusion length, and high extinction coefficient. Simulation study is an important technique to understand working mechanisms of perovskites solar cells. The study would help develop efficient, stable PSCs experimentally. In this study, modeling of perovskite solar cell was carried out through Setfos software. The optimization of different parameters of layer structure of solar cell would help to achieve maximum light absorption in the perovskite layer of solar cell. Simulation study is based drift-diffusion model to study the different parameters of perovskite solar cell. Hysteresis is one of the factors in the perovskite solar cell which may influence the device performance. The measurement of abnormal hysteresis can be done by current-voltage curve during backward scan during simulation study. In backward scan, the measurement starts from biasing voltage higher than open circuit voltage and sweep to voltage below zero. The numerical simulation used to study the various parameters like open circuit voltage, short circuit current, fill factor, power conversion efficiency and hysteresis. The simulation results would help to understand the photophysics of solar cell physics which would help to fabricate highly efficient and stable perovskite solar cells experimentally.
