<![CDATA[Advancements in solar technologies are driven by the pursuit of higher efficiency and reduced environmental impact. This study presents a comprehensive and comparative analysis of organic and inverted organic solar cells (OSC and IOSC), using the OghmaNano software for simulations and analysis. This work is specifically designed to compare conventional and inverted structures and understand how device engineering impacts performance metrics. When OSCs are characterized by a low work-function cathode on top, IOSCs feature a clear conductive oxide cathode at the bottom. The study focusses on extracting key electrical output, including short circuit current density (JSC), open-circuit voltage (VOC), fill factor (FF) and power conversion efficiency (PCE), through the calculated current-voltage characteristic (J-V). Various physical characteristics, such as thickness of different layers and materials deployed as electron transport layer (ETL) and hole transport layer (HTL), are systematically investigated. Diverse top and bottom electrodes, encompassing monothin and multithin layer configurations, are proposed. The study shows that IOSC achieves higher efficiency than OSC, reaching 21.60%, while using a multithin layer ZTZ (ZnO/TiOx/ZnO) as the bottom contact, demonstrating improved charge transport and overall efficiency.]]>
