Abstract

The invention discloses a copper nitride thin-film solar cell and a preparation method thereof. The cell comprises the following structures from bottom to top: ITO glass, a magnesium-doped copper nitride film, a component gradient copper nitride film, a selenium-doped copper nitride film, an ITO film and a silver electrode, and in the component gradient copper nitride film, the nitrogen content isgradually increased from bottom to top. The copper nitride film is prepared by using a reactive magnetron sputtering method, and the copper nitride film with gradually changed forbidden band width isobtained by adjusting the flow of reaction gas (nitrogen), so that a spectral range of sunlight absorption of the film is widened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thin-film solar cells, and in particular relates to a copper nitride thin-film solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Although crystalline silicon solar cells currently occupy more than 90% of the photovoltaic market, thin-film solar cells have obvious advantages in the application of building curtain wall glass and automotive glass. At present, thin-film solar cells mainly include amorphous silicon thin-film batteries, copper indium gallium selenide thin-film batteries, cadmium telluride thin-film batteries, and perovskite thin-film batteries. However, at present, these thin-film batteries have certain limitations in terms of cost, environmental protection, element reserves, and stability. Therefore, new thin-film solar cells that are green, environmentally friendly, abundant in reserves, and low in cost have gradually become a hot spot that people pay attention to. m...
