Abstract

This paper has as a purpose the characterization, simulation (with SCAPS-1D software) and optimization of the performance characteristics of a perovskite solar cell (PSC). The performance of the cell was evaluated by interpreting the results based on the influence of characteristics such as the thickness of the layers, the temperature, the density of defects that may appear inside the absorbing material and at the interfaces, etc. Following the simulations, optimal parameters were determined, which led to a value of 23.49% for the power conversion efficiency (PCE), which is the highest compared to other MAPbI₃-based PSCs simulated with SCAPS-1D that we found in recent literature. The performance of the proposed perovskite solar cell could be further improved by choosing other types of perovskites, and by variations of other characteristics and parameters of the layers.
