description Perovskite solar cells, a potential renewable energy source, could revolutionize the efficiency of traditional photovoltaic cells. Their high efficiency and low cost of materials and processes outshine commercial silicon or other organic and inorganic solar cells. In this comprehensive research, we develop inorganic Sr3SbI3 as an absorber material for perovskite solar cells using SCAPS-1D software. Strontium antimony iodide (Sr3SbI3) holds promise as an absorber material for solar cells due to its potential for high light absorption and suitable electronic properties. This study utilized abundant and environmentally friendly tungsten trioxide (WO3) as the electron transport layer to maximize the device’s efficiency. Copper antimony sulfide (CuSbS2) emerges as a promising photovoltaic hole transport material for Sr3SbI3-based perovskite solar cells. To further boost device performance, we scrutinized the effects of absorber and buffer layer thickness, acceptor density, Sr3SbI3 defect density, and interfacial defect densities at the WO3/Sr3SbI3 and Sr3SbI3/CuSbS2 interfaces. We also explored the influences of operating temperature, series resistance, and shunt resistance on the final optimized device performance and its capacitance voltage, current density–voltage (J–V), and quantum efficiency (Q-E) properties. The Sr3SbI3–based solar cell exhibited the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) at 30.51% with Voc 1.078 V, Jsc 35.03 mA/cm2, and FF 80.81%. The designed Sr3SbI3–based solar cell outputs will be efficient for the convenient fabrication of the perovskite solar cell.
