Abstract
AbstractA comprehensive study was performed for the design of ABX3 perovskites, (A = Li, K, Na, B = Ge, Sn, Pb, X = F, Cl, Br, I) and organic hole transfer materials, HTMs (Fu‐2a, Fu‐2b, Fu‐2c, and Dm‐Q) for efficient perovskite solar cells (PSCs) through quantum chemistry calculations. Photovoltaic characteristics of the investigated perovskites are strongly affected by the halide anions. The results reveal that reducing the exciton binding energy of perovskites enhances the rate of the formation/dissociation of holes and electrons so F‐based perovskites are superior from this viewpoint. Additionally, the electron and hole injection processes are more favorable in the case of the F‐based perovskites in comparison with other studied perovskites. Moreover, spectroscopic properties of the perovskites demonstrate that KSnCl3, NaSnCl3, and F‐based perovskites exhibit a greater ability of the light‐harvesting and incident photon to current conversion efficiency. Ultimately, based on diverse analyses, F‐based perovskites, KSnCl3 and NaSnCl3 are the preferred candidates to be applied in the PSCs due to an excellent incident photon to current conversion efficiency, light‐harvesting efficiency, short circuit current, and solar cell final efficiency.
