Researchers worldwide have been interested in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to their exceptional photovoltaic (PV) performance. The PSCs are the next generation of the PV market as they can produce power with performance that is on par with the best silicon solar cells while costing less than silicon solar cells.
Perovskite solar cells are the main option competing to replace c-Si solar cells as the most efficient and cheap material for solar panels in the future. Perovskites have the potential of producing thinner and lighter solar panels, operating at room temperature.
On the other hand, the operating mechanics of silicon solar cells, DSCs, and perovskite solar cells differ. The performance of silicon solar cells is described using the dopant density and distribution, which is modelled as a p-n junction with doping. The redox level in electrolytes impacts the output voltage of a device in DSCs.
