Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with no charge transport layer (CTL) have drawn great attentions due to their simple device structure and low cost. However, the low efficiency hampers their practical applications. In the study, a novel FASnI3/MAPbI3 heterojunction structure is proposed to replace the conventional MAPbI3 absorber layer for efficient CTL-free PSCs. The numerical tool SCAPS-1D is employed to optimize the proposed structure taking into account multiple device and material parameters, such as layer thickness, doping concentration of MAPbI3, electron affinity of FASnI3 and back electrode work function. After optimization, the highest yielded efficiency of the FASnI3/MAPbI3 bilayer structure is 25.34%, which is 54.9% relatively higher than the conventional MAPbI3 single-layer structure (with an optimal efficiency of 16.36%). The simulation results demonstrate the huge potentials of proposed FASnI3/MAPbI3 heterojunction for constructing efficient CTL-free PSCs and provide inspirations for the future development of CTL-free PSCs.
