Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of solar cell technology and relates to a perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation liquid and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have become a preferred solution for next-generation photovoltaic technology due to their high photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) and low manufacturing cost. This makes them extremely attractive in a variety of application areas, especially in space photovoltaics.

[0003] However, perovskite materials face severe challenges in the high-radiation and extreme temperature-varying environment of space. Even with encapsulated perovskite silicon solar cells, the high-energy radiation and temperature variations in space can easily induce halogen and lead vacancies within the perovskite material, negatively impacting cell performance. These vacancies act as non-radiative recombination centers, leading to a significant reduction in open-circuit voltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF). This adverse effect ultimately results in a significant decrease in the device's photoelectric conversion efficiency.

[0004] Furthermore, perovskite silicon solar cells operating in space are also subject to high-intensity ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This high-energy UV exposure is known to damage the perovskite crystal structure, leading to a significant decrease in cell efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, developing a novel interface passivation strategy that simultaneously possesses the functions of interface defect passivation, ion migration suppression, and ultraviolet protection is of significant scientific importance and engineering application value for improving the operational stability and lifespan of perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells in outer space environments. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention provides a perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution and its application. It utilizes a pre-assembly of an amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and a benzoic acid derivative to spontaneously form a hydrogen-bonded structure. This structure not only effectively eliminates deep-level defects in the perovskite layer, inhibits ion migration, and reduces interfacial recombination to minimize losses; more importantly, the pre-assembly-induced charge transfer and exciton coupling effect between the carboxyl group and the heterocyclic nitrogen molecule enable the passivation layer to form a strong absorption state in the ultraviolet band. Through efficient ultraviolet absorption, it fundamentally avoids lattice damage caused by ultraviolet radiation. The synergistic effect of these multiple functions significantly improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) and long-term stability of solar cells.

[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution, the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution comprising a solvent and a solute, the solute comprising an amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and a benzoic acid derivative.

[0009] In the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution of this invention, an amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and a benzoic acid derivative pre-assemble through intermolecular forces to form a honeycomb structure with a hydrogen bond network. In this structure, the amino group (-NH2) acts as a Lewis base, using lone pair electron coordination to passivate uncoordinated divalent cations in the perovskite, eliminating deep-level defects. Simultaneously, the electron-deficient nitrogen atoms of the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound (such as pyridine-N=) anchor free halide anions (X-) through electrostatic attraction, inhibiting ion migration and reducing the interfacial recombination rate. Furthermore, the pre-assembly-induced carboxyl group (-COOH) undergoes intermolecular charge transfer with the heterocyclic nitrogen (-N=), and through periodic arrangement, generates an exciton coupling effect, forming a strong absorption state in the ultraviolet band (300-400 nm), achieving a high ultraviolet interception effect. The absorbed high-energy photons are converted into thermal energy through non-radiative relaxation, avoiding perovskite lattice damage. These three factors synergistically improve the open-circuit voltage and stability of the device.

[0010] In the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution of this invention, the honeycomb structure pre-assembled by amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds and benzoic acid derivatives has an ultrathin hydrogen bond self-assembly network with a thickness of less than 5 nm. This allows for efficient transmission of visible light in the 400-1200 nm band while exhibiting high ultraviolet light absorption in the 250 nm-320 nm band. This reduces the perovskite lattice decomposition caused by ultraviolet photons while maintaining the intrinsic light absorption of perovskite. When used in perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells, it can ensure the generation of photocurrent in the bottom cell.

[0011] Preferably, the molar ratio of the amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound to the benzoic acid derivative is (0.3 to 3):1, for example: 0.3:1, 0.5:1, 1:1, 2:1 or 3:1, etc.

[0125] A comparison of Application Examples 1 and 9-10 shows that the ratio of amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds to benzoic acid derivatives in the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution of the present invention affects its performance. Controlling the molar ratio of amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds to benzoic acid derivatives at (0.3–3):1 results in better performance of the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution. If the proportion of amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds is too high, the excess compounds tend to form linear polymer chains, losing the advantages of the porous structure, leading to uneven distribution of passivation sites, reduced coverage efficiency for perovskite surface / grain boundary defects, and the formation of an insulating layer on the perovskite surface, increasing interfacial resistance and hindering carrier extraction. If the proportion of benzoic acid derivatives is too high, amorphous aggregates may form, reducing passivation uniformity.

[0126] A comparison of Application Examples 1 and 11-12 reveals that the concentrations of amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds and benzoic acid derivatives in the perovskite light-absorbing layer passivation solution of this invention significantly affect device performance. When the total concentration is controlled within the range of 0.1% to 0.5% by mass, the resulting passivation layer effectively covers perovskite surface defects without affecting carrier extraction, resulting in optimal overall performance. For example, the device with a concentration of 0.3% in Application Example 1 exhibits the highest PCE value (28.46%). When the concentration is too high (e.g., 1% in Application Example 12), the resulting passivation layer is too thick, easily increasing the device's series resistance, limiting charge transport, and leading to a decrease in device performance. Conversely, when the concentration is too low (e.g., 0.05% in Application Example 11), the passivation layer coverage is insufficient, interface defects cannot be effectively suppressed, non-radiative recombination increases, and open-circuit voltage and efficiency decrease significantly. Therefore, this invention achieves a balance between passivation layer thickness, interface quality, and charge transport performance by optimizing molecular concentration, ensuring that the device maintains high efficiency while possessing excellent stability.

[0127] A comparison of the experimental results of Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 1 to 4 shows that the amino-substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound introduced into the passivation solution of the present invention forms an ordered honeycomb-like self-assembled network structure with the benzoic acid derivative through hydrogen bonding, exerting multiple synergistic functions. Specifically, the carboxyl group (–COOH) provided by the benzoic acid derivative can form an intermolecular charge transfer state with the nitrogen (–N=) in the heterocyclic molecule, exhibiting significant ultraviolet absorption in the 250–320 nm wavelength range, effectively blocking the destruction of the perovskite lattice by high-energy ultraviolet light; the amino group can react with uncoordinated metal ions (such as Pb) in the perovskite. 2The +) coordination reaction occurs, thereby passivating defects; in addition, the heterocyclic nitrogen atoms can also capture free halide ions in the perovskite, inhibiting ion migration. These effects significantly reduce the recombination rate at the device interface, and significantly improve the open-circuit voltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF). Compared with the control group lacking the above components, the battery prepared by the passivation solution of the present invention exhibits excellent performance in key properties such as Voc, Jsc, FF, and PCE. For example, the device in Application Example 1 achieves a Voc of 1.859V and a PCE as high as 28.46%, while the highest PCE in the control group is only 25.82%, which fully verifies the effectiveness of the synergistic passivation and interface stabilization of the two types of components in the present invention.
