Abstract
Perovskite solar cells have shown exceptional performance and significant advancements in solar cell efficiency. For perovskite solar cells to conduct electrons and generate current, one of the key components is the substance known as the electron transport layer (ETM). Using the SCAPS 1D modelling program, ZnO:Al was used in this instance as the ETL material in a perovskite solar cell. Because of its interaction with the perovskite material, the ZnO:Al ETM demonstrated high cell efficiency. The performance of the ZnO:Al-doped-based solar cell achieved a PCE as high as 23.5%. In the meanwhile, the greatest cell performance in terms of enhancing the charge transport mechanism and raising cell efficiency was shown by perovskite solar cells doping the ETM with Al and having the right layer thickness. Thus, throughout the manufacturing process, the parameters used in this study may be applied to optimize perovskite solar cell performance.
