Problems solved by technology

However, after reducing the HOMO energy level of the polymer through chemical modification, it is likely to deteriorate other photoelectric properties of the polymer, such as widening the band gap and decreasing mobility, resulting in poor photon absorption efficiency and charge transport efficiency. Polymer solar energy The overall energy conversion efficiency of the battery drops very low

Abstract

The invention discloses a polymer solar battery with a high open-circuit voltage, which comprises a substrate, an anode, an anode modifying layer, an active layer, a cathode modifying layer and a cathode, wherein the active layer is a composite membrane of a polymer P(BDT-PhI) and PCBM of benzo-bithiophene and imide. By using the characteristics of an ultra-low HOMO energy level, a wide absorption spectrum, high mobility and the like of the P(BDT-PhI), the polymer solar battery prepared by the invention has a very high open-circuit voltage (0.93V), a widened spectral response range and high energy conversion efficiency. Besides, the very low HOMO energy level of the P(BDT-PhI) is also helpful for prolonging the service life of the polymer solar battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell, in particular to a high open-circuit voltage polymer solar cell. Background technique [0002] Solar energy is an inexhaustible renewable energy source for human beings. Therefore, in today's world where oil prices are rising sharply, mineral resources are increasingly depleted and greenhouse gas emissions are causing climate warming, solar cells that convert solar energy into electrical energy based on the photovoltaic effect are receiving more and more attention. However, the current commercialized solar cells are all inorganic solar cells using silicon or inorganic compound semiconductors as the active layer material. The preparation process is complicated, the cost is high, the weight is heavy, and it is fragile, which seriously restricts the large-scale application of solar cells. In this regard, conjugated polymers with fullerene derivatives (such as PCBM, C 71 -PCBM, etc.) The polymer solar cell with the ...
