Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a metal transparent electrode and an organic solar cell. The metal transparent electrode sequentially comprisesa seed crystal layer, a metal film and a metal grid from bottom to top, wherein the metal grid is of a stepped structure with conductivity increasing progressively. According to the metal transparentelectrode, a metal film / metal grid composite structure is adopted, the capture of incident light can be enhanced by utilizing an optical resonance microcavity effect formed between the metal film andthe back electrode on the one hand so as to obtain high photocurrent; and on the other hand, in allusion to the problem of non-uniform distribution of the carrier collection efficiency in the large-area device, the transmission and collection efficiency of the carriers in the large-area device is improved by preparing the metal grid with the conductivity distributed in a stepped mode on the metalfilm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a metal transparent electrode and an organic solar cell. Background technique [0002] The device efficiency of organic solar cells has reached the standard for commercialization, but how to effectively convert the small-area devices in the laboratory into large-area modules and how to obtain high-efficiency large-area device modules has become a crucial issue. [0003] However, as the cell area increases, the photovoltaic properties of the device decrease significantly. This is because in a large-area device, the transmission distance of carriers in the horizontal direction increases, and the transmission efficiency is unevenly distributed. When the conductivity of the electrode is poor, the series resistance of the device will increase significantly, causing the carrier The collection efficiency is reduced, which in turn affects the performance of large-area devices.
