Perovskite based solar cells have attracted much recent research interest due to the large efficiencies reported for simple planar structures. However, there is a lack of clarity in literature on the key functional parameters that control the eventual efficiencies. In this article, we provide a comprehensive modeling framework, well calibrated with experimental results from literature, to understand/interpret Perovskite based solar cells and suggest further optimization schemes. Indeed, our…

TLDR
A comparative study of electron mobility and injection dynamics in thin films of TiO, ZnO, and SnO(2) nanoparticles sensitized with Z907 ruthenium dye concludes that these injection dynamics are not substantially influenced by bulk energy level offsets but rather by the local environment of the dye-nanoparticle interface that is governed by dye binding modes and densities of states available for injection.
