摘要

This study numerically investigates the potential application of cesium-based lead-free double perovskite solar cells. We systematically correlated bulk defect density, interface defect states, carrier lifetime, diffusion length, and band alignment effects within a unified optimization framework. For this, we investigated electrical parameters by optimizing the thickness, total defect density (Nt) and total interface defects (Ntf) of the absorber layer under standard AM 1.5G solar illumination light using SCAPS-1D software. The novel configuration Al/FTO/IGZO/Cs2AgBiBr6/GQDs/Au achieved power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 22.64%, short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 24.8376 mA/cm2, open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.1177, and fill factor (FF) of 81.57% at an optimal level. Effect of thickness of absorber layer, Nt and Ntf optimization were analysed. In order to justify our results, the training and testing of the data of electrical output parameters were done to predict the efficient performance of the solar cells by the machine learning (ML) algorithm. We employed multiple machine learning algorithms to predict perovskite solar cell efficiencies using interface defect density and absorber-layer thickness as key inputs. The models, particularly K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and ensemble methods, deliver near-perfect accuracy, demonstrating their capability to accelerate device optimization and reduce dependence on conventional iterative fabrication approaches. We have compared the performance of proposed solar cell not only with previous work but also before and after optimization. This research’s practical design and significant findings may lead to an affordable lead-free double perovskite solar cell made of Cs2AgBiBr6.
