Perovskite solar cells have become a hot topic in the solar energy device area due to high efficiency and low cost photovoltaic technology. However, their function is limited by expensive hole transport material (HTM) and high temperature process electron transport material (ETM) layer is common device structure. Numerical simulation is a crucial technique in deeply understanding the operational mechanisms of solar cells and structure optimization for different devices. In this paper, device modelling for different perovskite solar cell has been performed for different ETM layer, namely: TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, PCBM (phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester), CdZnS, C60, IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide), WS2 and CdS and effect of band gap upon the power conversion efficiency of device as well as effect of absorber thickness have been examined. The SCAPS 1D (Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator) has been a tool used for numerical simulation of these devices.

Organic–inorganic halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have excellent chemical, electronic, and optical properties, making them attractive next-generation thin-film solar cells. Typical PSCs were fabricated with a perovskite absorber layer between the TiO2 electron-transport layer (ETL) and the 2,2′,7,7′-tetrakis-(N,N-di-4-methoxyphenylamino)-9,9′-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) hole-transport layer (HTL). We examined the influence of phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) on the PSC device. PSCs using the PCBM layer as an ETL were investigated, and the absorber layer was coated by dissolving PCBM in a methyl ammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) precursor solution to examine the changes at the perovskite interface and inside the perovskite absorber layer. The PSCs fabricated by adding a small amount of PCBM to the MAPbI3 solution exhibited a significantly higher maximum efficiency of 16.55% than conventional PSCs (14.34%). Fabricating the PCBM ETL and PCBM-MAPbI3 hybrid solid is expected to be an efficient route for improving the photovoltaic performance.

Research about mesoporous TiO2 as an electron transport layer in perovskite solar cell has been done to obtain the best fabricated cell’s performance. In this research, the concentrations of opaque and transparent TiO2 nanoparticle were varied, in order to optimize the TiO2 mesoporous electron transport layer in FTO/CL-TiO2/MS-TiO2/Perovskite/P3HT/Ag perovskite-based solar cell. Morphological, optical, and electrical characteristics of TiO2 layers were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), four-point probe (FPP), and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The influences of those characteristics in solar cell performance were analyzed by using illumination of sun simulator with a light intensity of 500 W/m2. The results showed that transparent TiO2 has a higher conductivity and transmittance compared to the opaque TiO2. The concentration of TiO2 solutionin1:17 ratio resulted in higher electrical performance in both the transparent and opaque TiO2 layer. The best perovskite solar cell performance with PCE of 0.37% was achieved from the sample using TiO2 transparent layer with a concentration of 1:7 ratio.
