Comparison of efficiency analysis of perovskite solar cell by altering electron and hole transporting layers

Abstract

The methylamine lead halide perovskites as the light harvesting material in solar devices are emerging and promising due to their easy manufacturing process and large photovoltaic effi ciency. Generally perovskite solar cells consist of a structure in which the perovskite light ab sorbing layer is sandwiched between electron and hole transporting layers (ETLs and HTLs). Herein we report four types of perovskite (CH3NH3PbBr3) solar cells which were fabricated in the absence and presence of electron transporting layer (Titanium dioxide (TiO2)) and hole trans porting layer (2,2′,7,7′-Tetrakis[N,N-di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]-9,9′-pirobifluorene (Spiro OMeTAD)). Efficiency comparison analysis of fabricated solar cells was performed in the absence and presence of electron and hole transporting layers. All layers were deposited by spin-coating method. Different analysis using XRD, SEM, UV and IV measurements were carried out for all samples. Maximum power conversion efficiency of 13.8 % was obtained.
