Increasing absorption poses a challenge for enhancing solar cell performance. Consequently, perovskite solar cells have emerged as a solution in recent years due to their advantages, such as high flexibility, low cost, and good radiation resistance. To further enhance the performance of perovskite solar cells, photonic crystals have been introduced into their structure, boasting exceptional optical properties. In this study, two-dimensional photonic crystals comprising ZnO material and MAPbI3 perovskite were utilized as absorbent layers. Through Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulations, the research successfully demonstrates the effectiveness of increasing absorption by modifying the diameter and period of the photonic crystals. The results indicate that absorption increases as the diameter decreases and the period increases. Notably, the highest absorption value was achieved with a diameter of 0.20 μm and a period of 0.50 μm. The simulation results clearly illustrate that perovskite solar cells with photonic crystals exhibit higher absorption compared to solar cells without photonic crystals. © 2024 Penerbit UTM Press.
