چکیده
The paper reported the design and thorough analysis of a thin-film solar cell (TFSC) based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) with an integrated Copper(I) Oxide (Cu2O) hole transport layer (HTL), employing one-dimensional Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator (SCAPS-1D) software. By varying crucial parameters such as absorber thickness, doping density, bulk defect well HTL concentration, electron affinity, density at ZnO/absorber absorber/Cu2O interfaces, operating temperature, we explored key photovoltaic measures including open circuit voltage (Voc), short-circuit current (Jsc), fill-factor (FF), power conversion efficiency (PCE) hetero-junction cell. study demonstrated 18.87% for MoS2 without HTL, while proposed (SC) utilizing Cu2O optimized device structure exhibited remarkable PCE 26.70%. outcomes derived from present offer valuable insights progress highly efficient economically viable TFSC.
