Numerical investigation of Aloe Vera-mediated green synthesized CuAlO2 as HTL in Pb-free perovskite solar cells
This study explores green-synthesized delafossite CuAlO2 as a hole transport layer (HTL) in a CH3NH3SnI3-based perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with an FTO/CuAlO2/CH3NH3SnI3/WO3/Au structure. The performances of the cell have been theoretically investigated using SCAPS-1D. Interface defects significant...
