Recent Progress in Lead Free Tin‐Halide Perovskite Materials Based Solar Cells via SCAPS Based Numerical Simulation

ChemistrySelect, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 9(31)

Published: Aug. 14, 2024

Abstract Energy demand has dramatically increased globally, posing a serious risk of future energy crises. While various sources have been utilized, solar emerged as the most promising renewable option, convertible to electrical via cells. Among developed cells, perovskite cells (PSCs) recently received significant attentions due their simple fabrication, high performance, and cost‐effectiveness. In particular, lead (Pb) halide‐based PSCs achieved highest power conversion efficiency. However, despite excellent Pb are hindered by toxicity in structures. Consequently, researchers explored germanium (Ge) tin (Sn) halide materials for development Pb‐free (LFPSCs). The past few years seen rapid advancements numerical simulation LFPSCs using SCAPS software. These studies crucial developing with enhanced performance. This mini‐review article summarizes recent progress tin‐based LFPSCs.

The implementation of ozone cleaning on two-step texturization of p-type silicon wafer

International Journal of Renewable Energy Development, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(2), P. 255 - 264

Published: Jan. 25, 2025

This study investigates the ozone treatment process that can be utilized across various fabrication stages to enhance performance of silicon solar cells. The effectiveness this on p-type surfaces was examined through application dissolved in deionized water (DIO3) and ultraviolet-ozone (UVO3) cleaning prior two-step texturization procedure. procedure applied work eliminates use nitride (SiN) as an anti-reflective coating (ARC) layer for elimination toxic gases leads environment-friendly An alternative RCA, DIO3 UVO3 represent promising chemical options applications eliminate hazardous chemicals. It discovered surface with 10 minutes resulted a significantly enhanced quality wafer. In DIO₃ cleaning, is create highly oxidative solution capable removing organic contaminants particles effectively. contrast, UVO₃ harnesses ultraviolet light synthesize directly wafer's surface, promoting degradation residues into volatile compounds, including CO₂ H₂O. According field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) micrographs UV-visible spectrometer (UV-Vis) measurements, textured wafer improves morphology decreases front reflection. As result, treatments were reported optimal; range size height pyramid formed 1.9–2.0 µm 0.8–1.5 µm, offering lower reflectivity value below 12%, respectively. Results from Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) also confirm increase average roughness 203.65 nm 300.27 expected improve absorption. Moreover, methodology considerable reduction damage applicable cell manufacturing.
