Abstract
The structural, electronic, optical and elastic properties of the cubic double perovskite Cs2CdPbI6 were calculated using a density functional theory DFT. The calculated values were reported to evaluate the photovoltaic (PV) performance of new device structures using the SCAPS-1D solar cell simulation software. The simulation findings demonstrate that the FTO/ETL/Cs2CdPbI6/HTL exhibited an efficiency of 32.06%, Voc = 1.4 V, Jsc = 27.99 mA/cm2 and FF = 81.69% at 300 K temperature. The effect of the absorber and ETL thickness, capacitance–voltage, current density–voltage, quantum efficiency characteristics, series resistance, and shunt resistance were also evaluated for the devices. The results of these simulations provide valuable insight that will be useful in the development of efficient double perovskites solar cells based on Cs2CdPbI6.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Inorganic and Organometallic Polymers and Materials [JIOP or JIOPM] is a comprehensive resource for reports on the latest theoretical and experimental research. This bimonthly journal encompasses a broad range of synthetic and natural substances which contain main group, transition, and inner transition elements. The publication includes fully peer-reviewed original papers and shorter communications, as well as topical review papers that address the synthesis, characterization, evaluation, and phenomena of inorganic and organometallic polymers, materials, and supramolecular systems.
