Abstract
The aim of this work was to fabricate and optimize a digital alloy electron transport layer (ETL) of ZnO and MgZno for use in perovskite solar cells. The ETL was deposited using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) which allowed for the partial pressure during deposition to be varied as well as the concentration of the oxides. Several combinations of partial pressures and concentration step gradients were tested and compared by examining open circuit voltage, short circuit current density, and power conversion efficiency of devices made with the layers. It was determined that the highest performing device was fabricated by varying the ZnO to MgZnO concentration from 1:0, 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 0:1, while increasing the pressure from 10mT to 50mT at each of the 5 steps respectively.
