Abstract

The invention discloses a solar battery with a graphite interface layer and a manufacturing method thereof. The solar battery comprises conducting glass, a thin oxide film, an electrolyte and a pair of electrodes, wherein the graphite interface layer is arranged between the conducting glass and the thin oxide film. A graphite oxide suspension is sprayed to the conducting glass, and the graphite oxide sprayed to the conducting glass is reduced to graphite at high temperature in a reducing or inert atmosphere. By using high conductivity and an appropriate energy band structure of graphite, the graphite interface layer is introduced between the conducting glass and the thin oxide film, so that the electrolyte can be effectively prevented from touching the conducting glass, the compounding possibility between photogenerated electrons and the electrolyte is reduced, the back reaction process is inhibited, and the photoelectric properties of the battery are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a sensitized solar cell and a preparation method thereof in which a graphene interface layer is introduced between a conductive glass and an oxide film to suppress a back reaction process. technical background [0002] Energy depletion is one of the three major challenges facing human society in the 21st century. Therefore, the development of renewable new energy sources is a major issue that human beings need to solve urgently in this century. Among various renewable energy sources, solar energy is most likely to replace fossil fuels and become the main form of energy in the future due to its advantages of "inexhaustible, inexhaustible", environment-friendly, and wide applicability. At present, the main method for people to utilize solar energy is to manufacture solar cells to convert solar energy into electrical energy for utilization. Among various types of sol...
