Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the properties of polymer materials restrict the performance of organic solar cells to a large extent.
For example, the commonly used polymer donor material P3HT has an absorption peak in the range of 350-650nm, while the maximum photon flux of the solar spectrum of AM1.5 is in the 600-800nm ​​band. The mismatch of the spectrum restricts the absorption of sunlight, and P3HT belongs Wide bandgap material, the cut-off wavelength of spectral absorption is 650nm, and the utilization rate of solar spectrum is low; in addition, the carrier mobility of P3HT is low, and the hole mobility is only 0.1cm 2 / Vs, compared with the hole mobility of inorganic materials, there is a big gap, such as the hole mobility of crystalline germanium material is 1900cm 2 / Vs
Therefore, as a donor material for absorbing photons and transporting holes, polymer materials such as P3HT still have many disadvantages, which restrict the improvement of photoelectric conversion efficiency of organic solar cells.

Abstract

In an organic solar cell with a nano-particle close-packed structure, amorphous-state germanium nanoparticles are taken as a donor, a fullerene derivative PC70BM is taken as a receptor, and the donor-receptor form a core-shell structure; and the germanium nanoparticles are prepared by a low-cost panel capacitor coupled with a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique and are closely packed in an active layer of the cell. The organic solar cell with the nano-particle close-packed structure has the advantages that the traditional polymer is substituted by the germanium nanoparticles with wide spectral absorption, high absorption coefficient and high carrier mobility, and a new donor material is provided for preparation of the organic cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation of an organic solar cell, in particular to the preparation of an organic solar cell with a nanoparticle close-packed structure. Background technique [0002] Organic solar cells are called the third-generation solar cells. They have rich raw materials, simple preparation process, and low price. The main advantage is that they are compatible with flexible substrates. , easy to integrate, can be made into transparent and translucent batteries, low cost, and has great development and application prospects in the fields of flexible electronics. [0003] At present, organic solar cells are mainly bulk heterojunction structures. The main feature of this structure is that the donor and acceptor form a uniformly mixed, bicontinuous interpenetrating network. Its beneficial effects are: effectively reducing the distance of exciton diffusion to the donor / acceptor interface, suppressing the quenching of excitons; and incre...
