Özet

The CuO thin film in the IV group was grown on a glass substrate using a spin coating technique by doping 2% Ti. The optical properties of these films were characterized using ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry. UV-Vis measurements show that the absorption and energy band gap value of Ti: CuO thin films change due to the different crystal structures of the films. Solar cells based on undoped CuO and Tidoped CuO thin films were modeled using the SCAPS-1D simulation program. Depending on the interface defect density, the values of photovoltaic parameters of the solar cells decreased. An increase in the efficiency of the Ti-doped CuO solar cell was observed with the increase in the hole mobility, but it showed lower performance compared to the undoped CuO solar cell. While the undoped CuO solar cell showed quantum efficiency in the narrow visible region close to the UV region, the Ti-doped CuO solar cell contributed to the quantum efficiency in the wider visible region. As a result of the calculations carried out with the simulation program, it was observed that the Ti atom caused a decrease in the efficiency of the CuO solar cell.. © 2024 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
