Abstract

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are getting popular as promising photovoltaic technology due to their high efficiency and economical manufacturing costs. PSCs' effectiveness and stability have continuously improved in recent years, and research into minimizing lead leakage and creating environmentally acceptable lead-free perovskites is advancing the commercialization of PSCs step by step. The goal of this paper is to design a solar cell model based on getting higher light transmission and lower light reflection. Three-layer solar cell structure containing perovskite, titanium dioxide, and metal Nano layer sandwich between a silicon substrate and glass cover. The Maple 17 software is used to create the numerical results for the Transfer matrix, which determines the transmission and reflection of the incident light for various physical parameters of the structure. The results showed that the cell with aluminum cell has an excellent transmittance for a wide range of incident angles, perovskite thickness, and effective layer thickness. The short circuit current density reaches the most significant value at (α = 0), and it has zero value for parallel incidents. The cell of CH3NH3PbI3perovskite type and the aluminum metal nanolayer has the highest current density and a non-zero value for a wide range of incident angles.
