TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar cell manufacturing, in particular to a textured structure suitable for perovskite-silicon tandem cell and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increasing demand for clean energy worldwide, perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells, as the next generation of high-efficiency photovoltaic technology, have become a key path to achieve breakthroughs in solar power generation efficiency. In the structure of peroviskite-silicon tandem solar cells, the surface morphology design of the silicon substrate directly affects the photonic management efficiency and overall device performance. Pyramid textured structure has attracted much attention due to its excellent optical properties. High-efficiency peroviskite-silicon tandem solar cells have extremely strict requirements for the light trapping performance of the silicon substrate surface, which requires the textured structure to have high light trapping efficiency to maximize the utilization of photons, and the surface morphology uniformity to ensure the uniform deposition of peroviskite thin film and the interface quality. Excellent light trapping efficiency can significantly reduce optical loss and improve the short-circuit current density and fill factor of the cell, while the high uniformity of the surface morphology is a prerequisite for forming an ideal heterojunction interface between the peroviskite layer and the silicon substrate, which is directly related to the effective separation and transport of carriers. The realization of these performance requirements is of decisive significance for pushing the efficiency of peroviskite-silicon tandem solar cells to the theoretical limit, and is also the core technical basis for the commercial application and large-scale industrialization of this technology. Therefore, it is of great scientific value and engineering significance to develop a pyramid textured structure preparation technology with optimized optical performance and surface morphology control capability.
[0003] Although the pyramid texture has been widely used in silicon-based solar cells, the existing preparation technology still has significant deficiencies in meeting the special performance requirements of perovskite-silicon tandem cells. Although the traditional alkaline texturing process can form a pyramid structure, due to the randomness of the nucleation mechanism and the non-uniformity of the reaction kinetics during etching, the prepared textured surface structure performs poorly in light capture efficiency, and the surface morphology consistency is poor. For example, CN101414641A discloses a solar cell textured surface and a manufacturing method, but has the problems of low light capture efficiency and poor surface morphology consistency. The root cause of these technical defects is that the existing preparation of textured solution system lacks effective nucleation regulation mechanism, which cannot realize accurate control of the nucleation density and growth orientation of the pyramid, and lacks surface modification technology to optimize the uniformity of the etching process. In addition, the extensive control of reaction conditions in the traditional texturing process leads to a wide distribution of pyramid size, and the morphology parameters are difficult to accurately adjust, which further affects the optimization of optical performance and the quality of perovskite film. The existing technology also generally has the problems of poor process reproducibility and insufficient batch consistency, which is mainly due to insufficient understanding of the etching mechanism and insufficient optimization of process parameters, which seriously restricts the large-scale manufacturing and commercial application of high-performance perovskite-silicon tandem cells. SUMMARY

[0016] The application adopts a multi-step precision process control combined with surface pretreatment design, and is mainly used for enhancing the light trapping performance and surface morphology uniformity of the perovskite crystal silicon laminated battery suede structure. The technical scheme realizes the full-flow precise regulation and control of the preparation process of the pyramid suede structure through systematic process optimization, so that the regular surface morphology with ideal optical performance and geometric characteristics is obtained. The design purpose of the silicon wafer cleaning process is to provide a clean and active uniform silicon surface for the subsequent texturing process. By selecting a single crystal silicon wafer with a specific crystal orientation and adopting a multi-stage cleaning system, the thorough removal of surface contaminants and the consistency of the surface state are ensured. The step-by-step cleaning of acetone and isopropyl alcohol effectively removes organic residues, and the oxidizing cleaning of the H2SO4 and H2O2 mixed solution further eliminates deep organic contaminants. The accurate treatment of the hydrofluoric acid solution removes the surface oxide layer and exposes the active silicon surface. The synergistic effect of this multiple cleaning mechanism provides an ideal starting interface for the subsequent chemical etching. The preparation of the suede solution preparation process embodies the concept of precise chemical engineering design.

The high-temperature holding and stirring process promotes the sufficient complexation and balance among the components, forming a stable solution system with synergistic etching effect. The pretreatment process is the key link to realize the precise control of the surface morphology. The chemical pre-etching of the dilute sodium hydroxide solution produces micro-roughness on the silicon surface and forms initial reaction active points, providing favorable conditions for the subsequent adsorption and self-assembly of beta-cyclodextrin. The surface modification treatment of beta-cyclodextrin forms a uniform distribution of nucleation templates on the silicon surface through its unique molecular structure. The synergistic effect of this double pretreatment mechanism significantly improves the spatial regularity and size consistency of the subsequent pyramid-shaped nucleus. The wet pyramid etching process realizes the controllable growth of the pyramid structure through precise temperature control, time adjustment and stirring optimization. The mild stirring condition ensures the uniformity of the etching process while avoiding mechanical damage. The precise immersion depth control ensures the uniform stress and mass transfer conditions on the surface of the silicon wafer. The synergistic optimization of these process parameters enables the texturing process to accurately follow the preset geometric parameters, and finally forms a regular pyramid array with a specified base angle, edge length, aspect ratio and distribution density.The design purpose of the subsequent cleaning and drying treatment process is to protect the formed pyramid structure and ensure the cleanliness of the surface, multiple deionized water rinsing effectively removes the residual preparation of the pyramidal solution, the neutralization treatment of the dilute hydrochloric acid solution eliminates the surface alkaline residue, the accurate pH control ensures the neutralization of the surface chemical environment, and the combination process of vacuum drying and nitrogen protection avoids oxidation and pollution in the drying process. The systematic post-processing mechanism ensures the integrity of the pyramid surface structure and the surface quality, and through the precise cooperative control of the whole process, a high-performance pyramidal structure composed of regularly arranged and uniform tetrahedral pyramid units is finally obtained, and the light capture efficiency and surface morphology uniformity are significantly improved.

[0074] Figure 1 The side view of the pyramid texture structure prepared in example 3 of the present application, from which it can be clearly observed that the pyramid units are arranged in order, the size is uniform, and the surface morphology is regular, which proves the superiority and stability of the preparation process of the present application, Figure 2The top view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Example 3 of the present application can determine the base angle θp as 55° by measuring the included angle between the base edge and the adjacent edge, which meets the ideal pyramid geometric structure requirement, Figure 3 The cross-sectional view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Example 3 of the present application shows the complete three-dimensional profile and internal structural features of the pyramid, further verifying the accuracy of the preparation process, Figure 4 The side view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Comparative Example 1 of the present application shows that the etching is not uniform and forms irregular morphology due to the lack of etching ability caused by not adding boron-containing ammonium hydroxide in the suede solution, and the pyramid structure lacks regularity, Figure 5 The side view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Comparative Example 3 of the present application shows that the nucleation template is missing due to the lack of β-cyclodextrin surface modification treatment in the pretreatment step, and the pyramid nucleation point is observed to be rare, with a distribution density significantly lower than the example, and the overall coverage is insufficient, Figure 6 The side view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Comparative Example 6 of the present application shows that the solution temperature is too low (60°C) and the etching time is too long (50 minutes) during the wet etching process, resulting in the formation of a shallow pyramid structure, and the measurement result shows that the base angle θp is only 41°, which is far lower than the ideal value, affecting the light trapping effect, Figure 7 The side view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Comparative Example 9 of the present application shows that the uniformity of the silicon surface is destroyed by excessive pretreatment, as the 2% sodium hydroxide solution is used for 120 seconds and the β-cyclodextrin treatment temperature is as high as 60°C, and the pyramid morphology is irregular and the size difference is large, Figure 8 The side view of the pyramid suede structure prepared in Comparative Example 12 of the present application shows that the anisotropic etching effect is poor due to the mismatch of the crystal direction of the (111) silicon wafer as the substrate material, and the regular pyramid structure cannot be formed, and the surface morphology is obviously observed to be chaotic and disordered, lacking clear geometric features.
[0075] Performance test: To test the performance of the pyramid texture, the preparation process of the perovskite film includes first pre-treating the pyramid textured silicon wafer, placing the silicon wafer in an ultraviolet ozone cleaning machine for 15 minutes to remove organic contaminants, and then performing subsequent preparation in a nitrogen glove box. When preparing the perovskite precursor solution, 159 mg of methylammonium iodide, 172 mg of formamidinium iodide, 461 mg of lead iodide, and 73 mg of lead bromide are dissolved in a mixed solvent of 0.8 mL of dimethylformamide and 0.2 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide. The solution is stirred at 60°C for 2 hours until it is completely dissolved to obtain a 1.4M perovskite precursor solution. When preparing the additive solution, 0.5% by volume of 1,8-diiodooctane is added to chlorobenzene as an additive for standby use. The perovskite film deposition is performed using a two-step spin coating method. The first step is spin coating at 500 rpm for 10 seconds, and the second step is spin coating at 4000 rpm for 30 seconds. At 8 seconds before the end of spin coating, 100 μL of chlorobenzene additive solution is quickly added for anti-solvent treatment. After spin coating, the sample is immediately transferred to a 100°C hot plate for annealing for 10 minutes to crystallize the perovskite. Due to the three-dimensional topography of the pyramid texture, the amount of precursor solution needs to be appropriately increased to 150 μL to ensure complete coverage of the texture. During spin coating, a step-by-step acceleration method is used, i.e., first pre-spinning at 200 rpm for 5 seconds to wet the texture with the solution, and then performing the normal two-step spin coating procedure. The addition time and amount of anti-solvent treatment need to be precisely controlled to avoid impacting the texture. During annealing, the annealing time is extended to 15 minutes, and a gradient heating method is used, i.e., first pre-heating at 80°C for 2 minutes, then heating to 100°C for 13 minutes. The entire preparation process needs to be performed in a nitrogen environment with a humidity of less than 10% to prevent degradation of the perovskite film. After preparation, XRD, SEM, UV-vis, and other characterization tests should be performed immediately to evaluate the crystalline quality, uniformity of coverage, and optical properties of the perovskite film on the texture.
[0076] Reflectance spectrum test experiment: The reflectance characteristics of the pyramid texture were tested using a UV-visible-near infrared spectrophotometer equipped with an integrating sphere accessory. The test object was the reflectance spectrum curve in the wavelength range of 300-1200 nm. The experimental conditions were set as follows: incident angle 8°, scanning speed 240 nm / min, data interval 1 nm, and polytetrafluoroethylene standard white board as 100% reflectance reference. Baseline correction and dark current correction were required before testing. The reflectance values in the visible light region of 400-800 nm and the near-infrared region of 800-1200 nm were focused on, and the weighted average reflectance was calculated to evaluate the light capture performance.
[0077] Optical absorption ability test (UV-Vis): To investigate the light absorption enhancement effect of perovskite films on the surface of the textured structure, the transmittance and absorbance were tested by UV-Vis spectrophotometer (PerkinElmer Lambda 950). The test object was the optical absorption characteristics of perovskite films in the wavelength range of 300-900 nm. The experimental conditions were set as follows: the incident angle was kept vertical, the scanning speed was 240 nm / min, the data interval was 1 nm, and the absorption spectra of perovskite films on the flat silicon wafer and the pyramid textured structure were tested respectively. The light capture efficiency improvement was evaluated by comparing the differences in absorption spectra, and the optical band gap and absorption edge movement were analyzed.
[0078] Photoelectric conversion performance test (J-V): The simple device structure FTO / c-TiO2 / mp-TiO2 / perovskite / HTL / Au was assembled for photoelectric performance test. The test object was the electrical output characteristics of the complete perovskite solar cell device. The experimental conditions were set as follows: standard test conditions (AM1.5G spectrum, light intensity 100 mW / cm 2 , device temperature 25℃), J-V curve was tested by solar simulator and source table instrument (such as Keithley 2400), scanning voltage range-0.2V to 1.2V, scanning speed 50mV / s, forward and reverse scanning were carried out respectively to evaluate the hysteresis effect, and key parameters such as open circuit voltage Voc, short circuit current density Jsc, fill factor FF and photoelectric conversion efficiency PCE were extracted to directly evaluate the enhancement effect of textured structure on photoelectric performance.
[0079] The properties of the experiments of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-12 are gathered in Table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, the lack of addition of boron-containing ammonium hydroxide in the texturing solution leads to insufficient etching ability, irregular pyramid morphology, significantly increased reflectivity, decreased light capture efficiency, and significantly reduced final photoelectric conversion efficiency. The lack of β-cyclodextrin surface modifier in the texturing solution or the pretreatment process leads to uneven distribution of nucleation points, poor consistency of pyramid size, increased reflectivity, and slightly decreased photoelectric performance. Improper preparation conditions of the boron-containing ammonium hydroxide, such as excessively high reaction temperature or excessively low pH value, affect the complex stability and etching activity, leading to unsatisfactory texturing effect and slight performance decline. The lack of functional additives such as polyethylene glycol PEG-400 and sodium citrate in the texturing solution affects the wettability and chemical equilibrium of the solution, resulting in poor uniformity of the pyramid morphology and decreased photoelectric efficiency. Excessively low texturing temperature or excessively long time leads to insufficient etching or over-etching, forming irregular surface morphology, significantly increased reflectivity, and significantly decreased photoelectric performance. Excessively high concentration of hydrofluoric acid or excessively long treatment time causes excessive corrosion of the silicon surface, affecting the subsequent film formation quality, but has relatively small effect on the optical performance. Excessively low preparation temperature of the texturing solution affects the dissolution and complexation of the components, leading to poor solution stability, decreased texturing uniformity, and greatly reduced photoelectric efficiency. Excessively strong pretreatment conditions can damage the silicon surface structure, and excessively high pretreatment temperature or improper time affects the adsorption effect of β-cyclodextrin, leading to failure of nucleation control and significant performance decline. The lack of surfactants and complex stabilizers in the texturing solution affects the dispersion stability of the solution and the synergistic effect of the components, but has relatively limited effect on the overall performance due to the small amount of addition. The improper selection of silicon wafer crystal orientation, such as using (111) crystal orientation instead of (100) crystal orientation, significantly affects the anisotropic etching effect, making it difficult to form regular pyramid structures, leading to a significant decrease in light capture performance and a serious reduction in photoelectric conversion efficiency.
