Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a novel photocathode and a solar cell with a photocathode structure. The photocathode consists of active substances, binding agents, conductive agents and a current collector, wherein the active substances, the binding agents and the conductive agents are adhered to the current collector after being mixed; and the active substances are one or more compounds in lithium-transition metal compounds and lithium-phosphate. The solar cell consists of the photocathode, a photoanode, a diaphragm and electrolyte. The solar cell is light in weight, small in thickness and low in price; and moreover, the solar cell has high photocurrent density, and a scheme is provided for manufacturing, researching and developing flexible solar cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular relates to a novel photocathode and a solar cell with the photocathode structure. Background technique [0002] With its characteristics of no pollution, no transportation, no monopoly, simple maintenance, safe operation and inexhaustibility, solar energy is considered to be the best choice to solve the two major problems of energy depletion and the environment, so countries are actively developing this green of renewable energy. In 1991, the solar cell research group led by Professor Gratzel of the Lausanne Institute of Technology in Switzerland successfully developed the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC for short). With the continuous improvement of this kind of solar cell by Gratzel et al., the photoelectric conversion efficiency of DSSC reached 12.3%. Recently, perovskite-sensitized solar cells rapidly reached 15%. Compared with the traditionally used silicon solar cel...
