Since PCE values over 20% are realistically anticipated with the use of cheap organometal halide perovskite materials, perovskite solar cells are a promising photovoltaic technology. In this review, the opto-electronic properties of perovskite materials and recent progresses in perovskite solar cells are described.
Furthermore, the instability of perovskite materials can cause problems like hysteresis, or variations in the solar cell's output voltage, and lower PCE . In this section, we will review the several factors that affect the stability of PSCs. Moisture intrusion is a significant challenge that can lead to the degradation of PSCs.
Materials made of perovskites are prone to deterioration when interacting with environmental effects including, light, oxygen, moisture, and heat . Over time, this deterioration may cause the solar cell's performance and efficiency to decrease, which would ultimately affect the solar cell's long-term dependability and durability .
Hybrid techniques that combine vacuum deposition and solution processing are emerging as potential ways to get customizable film properties. Ongoing research aims to improve the performance and scalability of these fabrication methods, paving the door for advances in perovskite solar cell technology.
Till date, the reported PCE for the single junction perovskite solar cells is 25.7 % (NREL Best Research-Cell Efficiency Chart, 2022). In view of the efficiency enhancement, the multi-junction PSCs are needed to be investigated which are described in the next sub-section.
In perovskite solar cell devices, variation in constituent elements to perovskite material alters properties of the absorber layer which ultimately affect the device performance and therefore, next section deals with compositional engineering to PSCs and its impact on the PCE and stability. 6.
