[0118] Example 5

[0119] A perovskite light-absorbing layer was prepared on the surface of the product prepared in Example 1 (Zn-doped nickel oxide film surface): a lead film (thickness of 60 nm) was prepared on the surface of the Zn-doped nickel oxide prepared in Example 1 by evaporation; the prepared lead film was placed in a glass vessel required for CVD, the preparation temperature was 70°C, MAI was placed 5 cm in front of the origin of the Pb film substrate, I ions were introduced by ventilation, and the gas source pressure was 0.08*10 5 Pa, the thickness of the obtained perovskite light-absorbing layer is about 500nm, and the structure is MAPbI3.

[0120] The electron transport layer is prepared by thermal evaporation on the perovskite light-absorbing layer. The material is C60; the evaporation rate is 0.3A / s; and the thickness is about 45nm.

[0121] A metal counter electrode layer is evaporated on the electron transport layer, the material of which is high-purity copper (>99.99%); the evaporation rate is 0.3A / s; the copper film thickness is 100nm, and a battery is obtained.

[0122] Example 6

[0123] A battery was prepared according to the method of Example 5, which differs from Example 5 in that the product prepared in Example 2 was used to replace the product prepared in Example 1.

[0124] Example 7

[0125] A battery was prepared according to the method of Example 5, which differs from Example 5 in that the product prepared in Example 1 was replaced by the product prepared in Example 3.

[0126] Example 8

[0127] A battery was prepared according to the method of Example 5, which differs from Example 5 in that the product prepared in Example 4 was used to replace the product prepared in Example 1.

[0128] Performance Testing

[0129] The optical properties of the multifunctional TCO prepared in Examples 1 to 4 were tested using an Agilent CARY100 UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The test results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 is the light transmission curve of the multifunctional TCO prepared in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 It can be seen that when the doping method in nickel oxide is changed from Zn doping to Cu doping, the light transmittance in the 300-700nm band has a significant decrease. Therefore, the short-circuit current of the battery prepared by using the TCO prepared under the parameters of Example 2 as the substrate will be restricted. By comparing Example 1 with Example 3, it can be seen that when the temperature is changed, due to the low temperature, the oxidation and phase change temperature are incomplete, so the light transmittance is significantly reduced. By comparing Example 1 with Example 4, it can be seen that due to the excessive oxygen content, part of the nickel oxide layer has been completely oxidized, so its transmittance is significantly reduced.

[0130] The cells prepared in Examples 5 to 8 were placed in simulated standard sunlight (AM 1.5G, 100 mW / cm 2 ), the light intensity was calibrated with a standard reference cell certified by NREL, and the efficiency of the cell was tested using the GB / T 6495.1-1996 standard. The test results are as follows:

[0131] Example 5 Example 6 Example 7 Example 8 Battery efficiency 15% 13% 11.8% 6.4%

[0132] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the present invention provides a method for preparing a multifunctional TCO. After preparing FTO (fluorine-doped tin oxide) by an in-situ preparation method, a precursor solution of a tin source or a nickel source is sprayed, and the residual heat in the in-situ preparation of FTO is converted into a heat source for forming a tin oxide / nickel oxide coating. In the process of spraying the precursor solution of the tin source or the nickel source, a separate heating step is no longer provided.
