Modeling the path to >30% power conversion efficiency in perovskite solar cells with plasmonic nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Mixed organic-inorganic halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are a promising technology with increasing power conversion efficiency (PCE), low-cost material constituents, simple scalability, and a low-temperature solution fabrication process. Recent developments have seen energy conversion efficiencies increase from 3.8% to over 20%. However, to further improve PCE and reach the target efficiency of over 30%, light absorption through plasmonic nanostructures is a promising approach. In this work, we present a thorough quantitative analysis of the absorption spectrum of a methylammonium lead iodide (CH₃NH₃PbI₃) perovskite solar cell using a nanoparticle (NP) array. Our multiphysics simulations using finite element methods (FEM) show that an array of Au nanos
