[0048] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0049] Research by the inventors has revealed that one of the main reasons for the shortened lifespan of solar cells in aerospace and nuclear radiation environments is the presence of cosmic rays in space and nuclear radiation in nuclear industrial environments. The wavelengths of these radiation waves are significantly shorter than those of infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet rays. Therefore, existing solar cells are unable to effectively utilize the energy contained in these radiation waves for power generation. When these radiation waves, which cannot be utilized by solar cells, strike the solar cell, they severely damage its various structural components. Long-term exposure to these radiation waves gradually weakens the PN junction in solar cells, significantly shortening the solar cell's lifespan.
[0050] In view of this, as one aspect of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, a solar cell unit 100 is provided, which includes a solar cell body 110, and is characterized in that the solar cell unit 100 also includes a light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 arranged on at least a portion of the outer surface of the solar cell body 110, and the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 can prevent radiation waves with a wavelength smaller than the wavelength of ultraviolet rays incident on the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 from passing through the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 and entering the solar cell body 110.
[0051] The wavelengths of the above-mentioned radiation waves, including cosmic rays and nuclear radiation, are all smaller than ultraviolet rays. Therefore, in the solar cell unit provided by the present invention, a light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 is provided to avoid the above-mentioned radiation waves from directly incident on the solar cell unit and damaging the structure of the solar cell unit, thereby extending the service life of the solar cell.
[0052] In order to increase the power generation, as a preferred embodiment, Figure 1As shown, the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 is disposed on the light-collecting surface of the solar cell body 110 , and the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 can convert the radiation waves into light with a wavelength not less than that of ultraviolet rays.
[0053] The solar cell unit provided by the present invention sets a light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 on the light-collecting surface of the solar cell body 110, so that the solar cell can convert light with a wavelength higher than ultraviolet rays into electrical energy, thereby increasing the wavelength range that can be used by the solar cell and improving the energy output rate of the solar cell.
[0054] In the present invention, the material of the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 is not specifically limited, as long as it can convert cosmic rays and nuclear radiation into ultraviolet rays, infrared rays and visible light. As a preferred embodiment, the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 is made of scintillation crystal material.
[0055] To further improve the energy output of the solar cell unit, preferably, the scintillation crystal material includes at least one of alkali metal halide scintillation crystals, alkaline earth metal halide scintillation crystals, rare earth metal halide scintillation crystals, and elvalite-type metal halide scintillation crystals.
[0056] After extensive research, the inventors discovered that metal halide scintillator crystals can emit more photons than other scintillator crystal materials under the same high-energy radiation intensity. Furthermore, the main peak wavelengths of the metal halide scintillator luminescence spectrum are located in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared light bands, which are photons that are effectively absorbed by solar cells.
[0057] Furthermore, the inventors of the present invention have discovered through research that among all metal halides, the above four metal halides have higher light transmittance. Therefore, providing the above four metal halide light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 has little effect on the solar light incident efficiency of the cell.
[0058] In the present invention, the compositions of the four metal halide scintillation crystals are not specifically limited. As a preferred embodiment, the four metal halide scintillation crystals are the following substances:
[0059] The chemical formula of the alkali metal halide in the alkali metal halide scintillation crystal is AX or AX:Z (Z doped in AX), wherein A is selected from any one of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, X is selected from any one of F, Cl, Br, and I, and Z is selected from Na + , Ca 2 + 、Sb、Bi、Pb、[CO3] 2- 、Tl + 、Yb 2+ Any of the following;
[0060] The chemical formula of the alkaline earth metal halide in the alkaline earth metal halide scintillation crystal is AX2 or AX2:Eu 2+ , wherein A is selected from any one of Ca, Sr, and Ba, and X is selected from any one of F, Cl, Br, and I;
[0061] The chemical formula of the rare earth metal halide in the rare earth metal halide scintillation crystal is AX3 or AX3:Ce 3+ , wherein A is selected from any one of La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Y, and Sc, and X is selected from any one of F, Cl, Br, and I;
[0062] The chemical formula of the potassium cryolite type metal halide in the potassium cryolite type metal halide scintillation crystal is A2BLnX6 or A2BLnX6:Ce 3+ , wherein A is selected from any one of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, B is selected from any one of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, X is selected from any one of F, Cl, Br, and I, and Ln is selected from any one of La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Y, and Sc.
[0063] In order to produce a light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 with uniform thickness and higher light conversion efficiency, preferably, the solar cell body 110 of the present invention is a gallium arsenide solar cell.
[0064] Through research, the inventors of the present invention discovered that the crystal plane direction of the solar cell body 110 made of gallium arsenide material is (100). When the above four metal halides are deposited on the surface of the solar cell body 110 using processes such as vapor deposition, the metal halides with a cubic phase crystal structure have a lower lattice mismatch rate with gallium arsenide (approximately 3% to 4%), and therefore are easier to grow uniformly on the surface of the solar cell body 110.
[0065] Moreover, the lattice constant of the (100) crystal plane of the above-mentioned metal halide is close to the lattice constant of the (100) crystal plane or the (-100) crystal plane of gallium arsenide. Therefore, under certain conditions, the growth of a single crystal metal halide film can be achieved on the (100) crystal plane or the (-100) crystal plane of gallium arsenide, thereby manufacturing a single crystal transparent anti-radiation layer 120 film with higher light conversion efficiency, providing more usable light for solar cells, and thereby improving the energy output of solar cells.
[0066] In the present invention, the thickness of the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 is not particularly limited. For example, the thickness of the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 may be between 5 nm and 5000 nm.
[0067] In order to increase the incidence rate of light, preferably, as shown in FIG1 , the solar cell unit 100 further includes an anti-reflection layer 130, and the anti-reflection layer 130 is arranged on the side of the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 away from the solar cell body 110. The solar cell unit provided by the present invention increases the incidence rate of light by arranging the anti-reflection layer 130, thereby increasing the energy output rate of the solar cell. In the technical field of image acquisition and display, the anti-reflection layer 130 is also called an anti-reflection film (or anti-reflection film), which is widely used on the lens surface and display screen surface of a camera to promote light to enter the camera to prevent distortion or to prevent reflection on the display screen surface. In the present invention, an anti-reflection film is applied to the light-collecting surface of the solar cell, and the anti-reflection film (anti-reflection layer 130) is used to enhance transmission and reduce reflection, thereby increasing the amount of light collected by the solar cell.
[0068] In the present invention, the structure of the anti-reflection layer 130 is not specifically limited. For example, the anti-reflection layer 130 may include alternating silicon dioxide layers and tantalum pentoxide layers, with the silicon dioxide layer formed on the surface of the anti-reflection layer 130 near the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120. In the present invention, there is no specific limitation on the number of silicon dioxide layers or tantalum pentoxide layers. For example, the anti-reflection layer 130 may include a single silicon dioxide layer or multiple silicon dioxide layers. Similarly, the anti-reflection layer 130 may include a single tantalum pentoxide layer or multiple tantalum pentoxide layers.
[0069] To facilitate understanding of the present invention by those skilled in the art, solar cell body 110 includes photoelectric conversion layer 140. Photoelectric conversion layer 140 includes a stacked N-type semiconductor portion 141 and a P-type semiconductor portion 142. Both N-type semiconductor portion 141 and P-type semiconductor portion 142 are made of gallium arsenide. Specifically, N-type semiconductor portion 141 is made of N-type doped gallium arsenide, and P-type semiconductor portion 141 is made of P-type doped gallium arsenide.
[0070] The side of the N-type semiconductor portion 141 away from the P-type semiconductor portion 142 or the side of the P-type semiconductor portion 142 away from the N-type semiconductor portion 141 forms the light-collecting surface of the solar cell body 110. Figure 2 The figure shows a case where the side surface of the P-type semiconductor portion 142 away from the N-type semiconductor portion 141 is formed as the light-collecting surface of the solar cell body 110 .
[0071] The N-type semiconductor portion 141 includes an N-type contact layer 141a and an absorption layer 141b, while the P-type semiconductor portion 142 includes a P-type contact layer 142b and a P-type doped layer 142a. The absorption layer 141b contacts the P-type doped layer 142a to form a PN junction. When light shines on the PN junction, the PN junction generates current, thereby generating electricity using light energy.
[0072] In the present invention, the thicknesses of the contact layer, the absorption layer 141b, the P-type contact layer 142b and the P-type doping layer 142a are not specifically limited. For example, the thickness of the N-type contact layer 141a can be 1nm to 1000nm; the thickness of the absorption layer 141b can be 0.2μm to 10μm; the thickness of the P-type doping layer 142a can be 1nm to 3000nm; and the thickness of the P-type contact layer 142b can be 1nm to 1000nm.
[0073] In the present invention, the materials of the contact layer, the absorption layer 141b, the P-type contact layer 142b and the P-type doping layer 142a are not specifically limited. For example, the N-type contact layer 141a can be made of at least one arsenide Alx1Iny1Ga 1-x1-y1 As or Al phosphide x2 In y2 Ga 1-x2-y2 P (0≤x1, y1, x2, y2≤1, x1+y1≤1, x2+y2≤1); the absorption layer 141b can be composed of at least one arsenic / phosphide Al x3 In y3 Ga 1-x3-y3 As (0≤x3, y3≤1, x3+y3≤1), and the doped elements in the N-type contact layer 141a and the absorption layer 141b can be at least one of Si, Sn, S, Se or Te; the P-type doping layer 142a can be composed of at least one arsenide Al x4 In y4 Ga 1-x4-y4 As (0≤x4, y4≤1, x4+y4≤1); the P-type contact layer 142b can be composed of at least one arsenide Al x5 In y5 Ga 1-x5-y5 Furthermore, the element doped in the P-type doping layer 142 a and the P-type contact layer 142 b may be at least one of C, Be, Mg, Zn, or Cd.
[0074] The solar cell body 110 further includes a front electrode layer 150 disposed on the light-collecting surface and a back electrode layer 160 disposed on the backlight surface of the photoelectric conversion layer 140 . The front electrode layer 150 includes at least one front electrode, and the light-transmitting anti-radiation layer 120 covers the front electrode layer 150 .
[0075] In the present invention, the pattern of the front electrode is not particularly limited. For example, the front electrode may be a plurality of electrode strips or a plurality of electrode blocks arranged in an array.
[0076] In the present invention, the structure of the back electrode layer 160 is not specifically limited. For example, the back electrode layer 160 may include an adhesion layer, a reflective layer, a prestressed strengthening layer, a barrier layer, and a conductive layer, which are sequentially stacked on the backlight surface of the photoelectric conversion layer 140. The adhesion layer may be made of at least one of the following elements: Ni, Pd, Mo, Pt, Cr, Ti, Ta, and W; the reflective layer may be made of at least one of the following elements: Ag and Al; the prestressed strengthening layer may be made of at least one of the following elements: Ni, Mo, Cr, Pd, Pt, W, Ti, and Ta; the barrier layer may be made of at least one of the following elements: W, Mo, Ta, and Ti; and the conductive layer may be made of at least one of the following elements: Al, Cu, Ni, Ag, Au, and Pt.
[0077] To further extend the service life of the solar cell unit, the solar cell body 110 preferably further includes a dielectric reflective layer 170 disposed between the photoelectric conversion layer 140 and the back electrode layer 160. The dielectric reflective layer 170 is made of an insulating material. In the present invention, the provision of the dielectric reflective layer 170 prevents breakdown between the front electrode and the back electrode layer 160, which could damage the PN junction of the solar cell unit 100, thereby extending the service life of the solar cell.
[0078] Preferably, in order to improve the anti-breakdown effect, the pattern of the dielectric reflective layer 170 and the projection of the pattern of the front electrode on the dielectric reflective layer 170 are overlapped.
[0079] In order not to affect the reflective function of the back electrode, preferably, the dielectric reflective layer 170 has a reflective function.
[0080] In the present invention, the material of the dielectric reflective layer 170 is not particularly limited. For example, the material of the dielectric reflective layer 170 may be insulating ink.
[0081] As a second aspect of the present invention, Figure 12 As shown, the present invention further provides a solar cell, which includes at least one solar cell unit 100 .
[0082] According to the research results of the inventors of the present invention, the solar cell unit 100 includes a light-transmitting and radiation-resistant layer 120 made of the above-mentioned four metal halide scintillating crystal materials, which can extend the life of the solar cell while providing more available light for the solar cell, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the solar cell.
[0083] To facilitate the connection between the solar cell units 100, preferably, Figure 12 As shown, the solar cell also includes a base plate 180 and an electrical connector. The base plate 180 is fixedly connected to the back electrode layer 160 of the solar cell unit 100. A connecting through hole 181 is formed on the base plate 180 for accommodating the electrical connector. The electrical connector is used to electrically connect two adjacent solar cell units 100.
[0084] In order to improve the connection effect between the electrical connection member and the back electrode layer 160, preferably, as Figure 13 As shown, a portion of the connection through hole 181 may be formed in the back electrode layer 160 or penetrate the back electrode layer 160 , thereby increasing the contact area between the electrical connection member and the back electrode 160 .
[0085] In the present invention, the shape of the connecting through hole 181 is not specifically limited and can be specifically designed according to the type of the electrical connector. For example, when the electrical connector is a wire, the connecting through hole 181 can be a hole-shaped hole. When the electrical connector is a conductive adhesive, the connecting through hole 181 can be a cutting path that passes through the base plate.
