Abstract

For commercial purposes in the solar cell field which toxicity and stability of lead-based perovskite solar cells (PSC) are important challenges, the presence of lead-free alternatives like Cs₂TiBr₆, Cs₂AgBiBr₆ and Cs₂PtI₆ double perovskites seems important. The aim of this study is to numerical evaluation of three double perovskite layers as potential photovoltaic (PV) materials in solar cells with fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO)/TiO₂/perovskite/Cu₂O/Au structures by using SCAPS-1D software. Different composite layers were optimized and analyzed to enable enhanced performance. Numerical results showed maximum power-conversion efficiency of 18.86%, 18.54%, and 26.50% for the suggested PSCs with Cs₂TiBr₆, Cs₂AgBiBr_6, and Cs₂PtI₆ absorbers. The achieved outcomes confirmed that Cs₂PtI₆ can contribute significantly to the development of highly efficient lead-free double-perovskite solar cell technology.

比较Cs2TiBr6、Cs2AgBiBr6和Cs2PtI6卤化物成分在双钙钛矿光伏器件中的性能

在太阳能电池领域，铅基钙钛矿太阳能电池（PSC）的毒性和稳定性是重要的挑战，因此无铅替代品如Cs2TiBr6， Cs2AgBiBr6和Cs2PtI6双钙钛矿的存在似乎很重要。本研究的目的是利用SCAPS-1D软件对三种双钙钛矿层作为掺氟氧化锡(FTO)/TiO2/钙钛矿/Cu2O/Au结构太阳能电池中潜在的光伏（PV）材料进行数值评价。对不同的复合层进行了优化和分析，以增强性能。数值结果表明，含Cs2TiBr6、Cs2AgBiBr6和Cs2PtI6吸收剂的PSCs的最大功率转换效率分别为18.86%、18.54%和26.50%。研究结果证实，Cs2PtI6可以为高效无铅双钙钛矿太阳能电池技术的发展做出重大贡献。

期刊介绍： Energy is the single most valuable resource for human activity and the basis for all human progress. Materials play a key role in enabling technologies that can offer promising solutions to achieve renewable and sustainable energy pathways for the future. Materials for Renewable and Sustainable Energy has been established to be the world''s foremost interdisciplinary forum for publication of research on all aspects of the study of materials for the deployment of renewable and sustainable energy technologies. The journal covers experimental and theoretical aspects of materials and prototype devices for sustainable energy conversion, storage, and saving, together with materials needed for renewable fuel production. It publishes reviews, original research articles, rapid communications, and perspectives. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed for scientific quality. Topics include: 1. MATERIALS for renewable energy storage and conversion: Batteries, Supercapacitors, Fuel cells, Hydrogen storage, and Photovoltaics and solar cells. 2. MATERIALS for renewable and sustainable fuel production: Hydrogen production and fuel generation from renewables (catalysis), Solar-driven reactions to hydrogen and fuels from renewables (photocatalysis), Biofuels, and Carbon dioxide sequestration and conversion. 3. MATERIALS for energy saving: Thermoelectrics, Novel illumination sources for efficient lighting, and Energy saving in buildings. 4. MATERIALS modeling and theoretical aspects. 5. Advanced characterization techniques of MATERIALS Materials for Renewable and Sustainable Energy is committed to upholding the integrity of the scientific record. As a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) the journal will follow the COPE guidelines on how to deal with potential acts of misconduct. Authors should refrain from misrepresenting research results which could damage the trust in the journal and ultimately the entire scientific endeavor. Maintaining integrity of the research and its presentation can be achieved by following the rules of good scientific practice as detailed here: https://www.springer.com/us/editorial-policies
