Abstract

Advanced multifunctional materials for renewable energy applications and its performance optimization become potential. The present work reveals structural morphology and its size variation of bi-function NaYF₄:Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ influence on the energy conversion performance of dye-sensitized and lead-free perovskite solar cells. Through a facile hydrothermal method, by varying of pH of the materials, the shape and size of the resultant compound are changed. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms its phase, and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies witnessed its shapes with size variation. Results of emission, reflectance studies support bi-function property of upconversion (UC), light scatter nature. NaYF₄:Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ with pH 3-assisted co-sensitize dye-sensitized solar cells revealed higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 12.77% compared to other devices of UC-5, UC-7, and UC-9. The lead-free CH₃NH₃SnI₃ (MASnI₃)-based perovskite solar cell attained 1.36% power conversion efficiency.

先进的多功能材料在可再生能源应用及其性能优化方面潜力巨大。本研究揭示了双功能 NaYF4:Er3+/Yb3+ 的结构形态及其尺寸变化对染料敏化和无铅过氧化物太阳能电池能量转换性能的影响。通过简便的水热法，改变材料的 pH 值，可以改变所得化合物的形状和尺寸。X 射线衍射（XRD）证实了其相位，扫描电子显微镜（SEM）研究见证了其形状和尺寸的变化。发射和反射研究结果支持上转换（UC）和光散射性质的双功能特性。与其他 UC-5、UC-7 和 UC-9 器件相比，NaYF4:Er3+/Yb3+ 与 pH 3 辅助共敏化染料敏化太阳能电池的功率转换效率（PCE）高达 12.77%。基于无铅 CH3NH3SnI3 (MASnI3) 的过氧化物太阳能电池达到了 1.36% 的功率转换效率。
