Abstract

The invention discloses an organic solar cell adopting functionalized graphene quantum dots as an electron transport layer. The cell includes a cathode layer, an electron transport layer, a photoactive layer, a hole transport layer and an anode layer which are in mutual superposition, and a glass substrate; the cathode layer or the anode layer are prepared on the glass substrate; and the electrontransport layer between the cathode layer and the photoactive layer is functionalized graphene quantum dots. Chemical modification treatment can be performed on the graphene quantum dots, and the workcontent of the graphene quantum dots can be adjusted, so that a contact barrier between the active layer and an electrode can be reduced, the collection efficiency of the electrode for photogeneratedcarriers in the cell can be enhanced, and therefore, the graphene quantum dots can be suitable for being the electron transport layer of the cell, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell can be significantly enhanced while costs are reduced.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to an organic solar battery using functionalized graphene quantum dots as an electron transport layer and a preparation method thereof. Background technique: [0002] At present, with the rapid development of the global economy, people's demand for energy is increasing, and energy has become a bottleneck restricting economic development. The decline of traditional energy sources such as oil, coal mines, and natural gas, as well as the environmental pollution caused by their excessive use, have forced people to seek, develop and utilize new, renewable, and environmentally friendly green energy sources. In this context, new green energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, biomass energy, water energy, and nuclear energy have attracted widespread attention. Among them, solar energy has a series of advantages such as huge reserves, green and harmless, and wide distribution, so it is favored by people. Solar cells can directl...
