Özet

An experimental investigation has been undertaken to explore a variety of properties of organic perovskite solar cells (OPSCs) that are distinct in their photovoltaic response. In this study, OPSCs were constructed using zinc oxide, ZnO and [6,6]-phenylC61-acid methyl ester, PCBM, as electron transfer materials (ETM), poly(3-hexylthiophene), P3HT, as hole transport material (HTM), and CH3NH3PbIX2 as a photosensitizer, where X is either Cl or I. The structural and optical characteristics of the ETM and HTM layers and the perovskite materials of OPSCs were investigated. The I-V and P-V curves of each solar cell prepared in OPSCs were measured using an integrated cell tester. This comprises a photovoltaic I-V measurement system and a solar simulation system. As a result of these results, the OPSC's performance is evaluated. The calculations in this work suggest that the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE = 6.31%) was achieved in photovoltaic devices using CH3NH3PbI3 as the effective absorber layer and ZnO with PCBM as the ETM layer. At a light intensity of 100 mW/cm2, each OPSC cell was performed. Under the same conditions, the I-V curves were evaluated for each OPSC device. By improving the selection of organic and inorganic active materials in the ETM layer, OPSC performance may be improved.
