Abstract

The invention discloses a high-quality germanium selenide polycrystal thin film and a preparation method therefor, a solar battery comprising the germanium selenide polycrystal thin film and a preparation method therefor. The germanium selenide polycrystal thin film is 300-500nm in thickness; the preparation method adopts a closed space sublimation method; the preparation method is simple in process, short in reaction period and high in film forming quality; elements included in p type absorption layer material GeSe in the solar battery are all elements with relatively high content in the earth crust, so that the elements are rich in resource, free of toxins and environment friendly; the indirect energy gap is 1.12eV, the absorption edge wavelength is about 1,000nm, response to solar spectrum is in the most ideal solar spectrum band, and the light absorption coefficient is as high as 105cm<-1>; meanwhile, based on the sublimation characteristic of the thin film, the film can be formed rapidly based on the closed space sublimation method; and therefore, the formed compound thin film solar battery has excellent photovoltaic performance, environment protection and is expected to realize low-cost production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of photoelectric materials and thin-film solar cell preparation, and in particular relates to a high-quality polycrystalline germanium selenide film, a solar cell containing the film and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Solar cells are an effective device that converts solar energy into electrical energy. It can help humans efficiently convert and utilize solar energy. Among them, thin-film solar cells have attracted widespread attention due to their excellent performance. Most of the compound semiconductor materials used in solar cells contain rare metals or toxic metal elements, which largely affects the development of solar cells. For example, the currently commercialized thin-film solar cells are mainly copper indium gallium selenide cells and cadmium telluride cells, but the In and Ga used in the preparation process of copper indium gallium selenide thin film solar cells are expensive m...
