Abstract

The invention relates to a ZnO-mixed cathode buffer layer-based organic solar battery. An inversion structure is adopted by the organic solar battery; the organic solar battery comprises a substrate layer, a transparent conductive cathode layer, a cathode buffer layer, a photoactive layer, an anode buffer layer and a metal anode layer which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top; and the cathode buffer layer is a solid thin film which is formed by mixing a ZnO nano-particle dispersion liquid and a ZnO precursor solution prepared through a sol-gel method at a ratio and carrying out thermal annealing. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the battery. The cathode buffer layer is prepared through mixing a certain amount of ZnO precursor solution prepared through the sol-gel method into the large-particle size ZnO nano-particle dispersion liquid, and gaps among ZnO nano-particles can be filled while relatively large contact area of the cathode buffer layer and the photoactive layer is ensured, so that the defect of the cathode buffer layer is reduced and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a device is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell, which belongs to the field of new energy solar cells; in particular, it relates to an organic solar cell based on a mixed ZnO cathode buffer layer; the invention also discloses a preparation method of the organic solar cell. Background technique [0002] With the development of the world economy, energy consumption, environmental pollution and other issues have increasingly become the primary concerns of countries all over the world. Traditional fossil energy has been on the verge of being exhausted with people's continuous development. Solar energy, as a renewable energy source, fits the bill. The energy of solar energy reaching the ground every second is as high as 800,000 kilowatts. If 0.1% of the solar energy on the earth's surface is converted into electrical energy, the conversion rate is 5%, and the annual power generation can reach 5.6×1012 kilowatts / hour. In the effective use of solar energy, solar photo...
