摘要

Cuprous oxide and Titanium dioxide are good materials for photovoltaic applications. In the attending work, we have numerically simulated Cu2O and TiO2 P-N heterojunction solar cells using SCAPS-1D to enhance photovoltaic performance. This work concentrated on enhancing the efficiency of solar cell using the SCAPS-1D simulation tool. The study aims to provide a theoretical guide for laboratory research and enhancement of the efficiency of the solar cell. The parameters such as the thickness, electron affinity & band gap of the Cu2O and TiO2 layer are step wise varied simultaneously. The model used a working point at a temperature of 300 K and an input power of 1000 W/m2 with AM 1.5 lamp illumination. The designed solar cell exhibits a Power consumption efficiency (η) of 12.19%, short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 10.08 mA/cm2, open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.43 V, and fill factor (FF) of 84.16%.
