Problems solved by technology

ZnO thin films can be prepared by a variety of methods, such as radio frequency magnetron sputtering, atomic layer deposition, pulsed laser deposition, chemical vapor deposition and sol-gel method, etc., but most of these processes are expensive or require high temperature ( above 200°C), thus incompatible with large-area thin-film preparation and flexible substrates

Abstract

The invention discloses a polymer solar cell based on an AZO / ZnO cathode and a manufacturing method of the polymer solar cell. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps that (1) a substrate is washed, (2) a ZnO electron transfer layer is deposited, (3) a P3HT: PCBM organic light active layer is deposited, (4) pre-annealing is conducted, (5) a MoO3 hole transfer layer is deposited, and (6) an Ag metal anode is deposited. The ZnO electron transfer layer is prepared according to a low-temperature water solution method, the work function of an AZO electrode is lowered through the ZnO electron transfer layer, energy level matching between AZO and P3HT: PCBM is achieved, the interface characteristic is improved, energy loss is reduced, and the energy conversion efficiency of the polymer solar cell of a reversed structure is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cells, in particular to a polymer solar cell based on an AZO / ZnO cathode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In today's society, the rapid economic development has brought serious problems such as energy crisis and global warming. The development and utilization of renewable clean energy has attracted widespread attention from all over the world. Different from traditional energy sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas, solar energy is a green, clean, and renewable energy source that is inexhaustible and has the potential to become an important part of future energy supply. As a photoelectric conversion device, solar cells have received more and more attention in their research and application. Compared with expensive silicon-based solar cells, polymer solar cells use organic semiconductor materials as the photoactive layer, which has the characteristics of low cost, high light...
