Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of solar cells, and relates to a perovskite thin film and a preparation method and use thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of the times and the progress of science and technology, the demand for energy by mankind has risen sharply, but non-renewable energy not only has limited production, but also causes serious environmental damage, which forces people to seek cleaner energy, among which photovoltaic power generation is a new choice with great development potential. Since the twenty-first century, more and more researchers have begun to focus on organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials and apply them in solar cells. As a new type of solar cell material with many excellent properties, it has rapidly developed into a "new star" in the field of new energy. In recent years, the related research of metal halide hybrid perovskite solar cells has become a hot spot in the field. At present, the highest conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells certified by authoritative agencies has broken through 25%, which is much higher than the conversion efficiency of traditional thin-film solar cells and comparable to the efficiency of the most commercially available crystalline silicon solar cells. In addition to being used in solar cells, it also has a very broad prospect in the fields of light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, etc.

[0003] In the manufacturing process of perovskite solar cells, solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide are widely used to improve the film formation morphology of perovskite, but in the growth process of crystals, these solvents are easily trapped and cannot be dispersed, eventually leading to the appearance of voids and gaps at the interface between perovskite and substrate, the integrity of the morphology of perovskite thin film is destroyed, not only reducing the efficiency of the device, but also accelerating the film degradation process under light, greatly reducing the stability of the device. Therefore, researchers have adopted various ways to improve the film formation process and thin film properties of perovskite. CN105336856A discloses a method for preparing a perovskite thin film, which places the prepared perovskite precursor thin film in an organic amine gas for treatment, which can improve the film formation and reduce the roughness of the perovskite thin film. However, this method is relatively complex due to the use of organic amine gas, and has certain danger and pollution; CN111063804A discloses a preparation method of a perovskite light-absorbing layer thin film, which uses hydrohalic acid as an additive, dissolves the perovskite material and the hydrohalic acid with a solvent, heats and reacts the system for a period of time to form a perovskite precursor solution, and then obtains the perovskite light-absorbing layer thin film through spin coating and annealing. The addition of hydrohalic acid can reduce the annealing temperature, so that the solvent volatilization is slower, which is beneficial to the improvement of the film formation properties to some extent. However, the conversion efficiency of the solar cells prepared by the method is less than 10%.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need to develop a new method for preparing a perovskite thin film, which can manufacture a high-quality perovskite thin film with a simple process, reduce the generation of cavities, and thus improve the efficiency and stability of the perovskite thin film in a device. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the problems in the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a perovskite thin film and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method uses thiosemicarbazide as an additive of a perovskite precursor solution, and then performs spin coating and annealing on the perovskite precursor solution to obtain the perovskite thin film. By adding thiosemicarbazide, the polar and high-boiling properties of thiosemicarbazide are utilized to solve the problem of cavities in the perovskite thin film caused by solvent retention during the nucleation process of the perovskite thin film, and the contact condition of the bottom of the perovskite thin film and the conductive substrate is improved, thereby realizing the regulation of the crystallization process of the thin film. The preparation method can obtain a perovskite thin film with few cavities, high crystallinity, and uniformity. The fill factor of a solar cell based on the perovskite thin film can reach 0.73, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency can reach 15.6%.

[0006] To achieve this purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present application provides a preparation method of a perovskite thin film, which comprises the following steps:

[0008] (1) preparing a perovskite precursor solution, which comprises a perovskite precursor material, thiosemicarbazide as an additive, and a solvent;

[0009] (2) spin coating the perovskite precursor solution of step (1) on a substrate to obtain a perovskite precursor dry film;

[0010] (3) performing annealing treatment on the perovskite precursor dry film of step (2) to obtain the perovskite thin film.

[0011] By adding the additive thiosemicarbazide to the perovskite precursor solution, the polar and high-boiling properties of thiosemicarbazide are utilized to inhibit the problem of cavities formed between the substrate and the bottom of the perovskite caused by solvent retention during the nucleation process of the perovskite, and the contact condition of the bottom of the perovskite thin film and the conductive substrate is improved, thereby realizing the regulation of the crystallization process of the thin film. The preparation method can obtain a perovskite thin film with few cavities, high crystallinity, and uniformity. When the high-quality perovskite thin film obtained by the preparation method of the present application is used in a perovskite solar cell, the fill factor of the device can reach 0.73, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency can reach 15.6%.

[0012] The following is a preferred technical solution of the present application, but is not a limitation of the technical solutions provided by the present application. Through the following technical solution, the technical purpose and beneficial effects of the present application can be better achieved and realized.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the perovskite precursor material in step (1) comprises AX and BX2, wherein A comprises C n H (2n+1) NH3 + , NH2CH=NH 2+ or Cs + , and n is an integer from 1 to 5; B comprises any one or a combination of at least two of Pb 2+ , Sn 2+ or Ge 2+ ; and X comprises any one or a combination of at least two of Cl - , Br - or I - .

[0014] It should be noted that the present application uses perovskite precursor materials AX and BX2, and produces perovskite thin films through the reaction between the two. However, at present, perovskite materials with complete composition and structure have been commercialized, and perovskite powders can be directly purchased and dissolved for use. Therefore, the additive thiocarbodiazine of the present application is still applicable to perovskite thin films obtained in this way and can still function normally. Those skilled in the art can select according to actual conditions.

[0015] Preferably, the concentration of the perovskite precursor material BX2 in the perovskite precursor solution in step (1) is 0.5-1.5 mmol / mL, such as 0.5 mmol / mL, 0.6 mmol / mL, 0.7 mmol / mL, 0.8 mmol / mL, 0.9 mmol / mL, 1.0 mmol / mL, 1.1 mmol / mL, 1.2 mmol / mL, 1.3 mmol / mL, 1.4 mmol / mL or 1.5 mmol / mL, etc., but not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed within the above numerical range are also applicable.

[0018] The present application can inhibit the formation of holes at the bottom of the perovskite film by adjusting the amount of additive thiosemicarbazide, thereby avoiding affecting the photoelectric properties of the perovskite film. When the amount of thiosemicarbazide is too small, the voids at the bottom of the film cannot be completely filled during the formation of the perovskite film, and the contact between the bottom of the perovskite film and the conductive substrate cannot be optimized. When the amount is too large, it will affect the normal crystallization of the perovskite film, and ultimately make the properties of the perovskite film worse.

[0065] Comparative Example 1

[0066] This comparative example provides a preparation method of perovskite thin film, which does not contain thiosemicarbazide in the perovskite precursor solution in step (1), i.e. step (1) is: using a mixed solvent formed by 970 μL of N,N-dimethylformamide and 30 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide to dissolve 86 mg of pentylamine iodine (i.e. C5H 11 NH3I), 111 mg of methylamine iodine, 415 mg of lead iodide, to form a perovskite precursor solution, the concentration of lead iodide in the perovskite precursor solution is 0.9 mmol / mL; the molar ratio of the sum of pentylamine iodine and methylamine iodine to lead iodide is 1.22:1; except for step (1), the other steps and conditions of this comparative example are identical to Example 1.

[0067] The preparation method of perovskite thin film described in the examples and comparative examples is used to prepare perovskite solar cells from the obtained perovskite thin film, and the preparation steps are as follows:

[0068] S1. Cut ITO conductive glass into 10 cm x 10 cm size, ultrasonically clean in glass cleaner, deionized water and ethanol for 10 min respectively, blow dry the surface residual solvent, and then put it into the ultraviolet ozone machine for cleaning for 15 min to obtain a conductive substrate;

[0069] S2. Weigh 1.5 mg of poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine] dissolved in 1 mL of toluene solution to prepare a hole transport layer solution precursor; take a small amount of the hole transport layer precursor and drop it onto the conductive substrate of step S1, spin-coat it with a spin coater at a speed of 5000 rpm, and finally anneal it on a hot stage at 100°C for 10 min to form a hole transport layer, obtaining a composite A;

[0070] S3. Use the preparation method of perovskite thin film described in the examples and comparative examples to prepare the perovskite thin film on the side of the hole transport layer of the composite A obtained in step S2 to form an active layer, obtaining a composite B;

[0071] S4. An active layer side of the complex B described in step S3 is prepared by a thermal evaporation method to form an electron transport layer of 30 nm thick C60, then 6 nm thick BCP, and finally a metal electrode layer of 80 nm thick silver electrode, to form a metal electrode layer, to obtain the perovskite solar cell.

[0072] Figure 3 is a device structure schematic diagram of the perovskite solar cell obtained in the embodiment and comparative example of the present application, the perovskite solar cell comprising a substrate 1, further comprising a hole transport layer 2, an active layer 3 composed of the perovskite thin film, an electron transport layer 4 and a metal electrode layer 5 arranged in sequence from bottom to top on one side of the substrate.

[0073] All the perovskite solar cells obtained in the embodiment and comparative example are tested, and the obtained results are shown in Table 1.

[0074] Table 1

[0075]

[0076] It can be seen from Table 1 that:

[0077] (1) The fill factor and photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell prepared in Example 1 reached 0.73 and 15.6%, respectively, while the fill factor and photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell prepared in Comparative Example 1 without using thiosemicarbazide as an additive were 0.70 and 14%, respectively, indicating that the presence of the additive thiosemicarbazide had a significant improvement effect on the device performance, because thiosemicarbazide effectively regulated the crystallization process of the perovskite thin film, solved the problem of easy voids in the thin film, made the perovskite thin film more complete and uniform, and thus optimized the performance of the device;

[0078] The above results can be verified by the morphology change of the perovskite thin film, Figure 1 is a scanning electron microscope image of the bottom of the perovskite thin film obtained in Example 1 of the present application, when thiosemicarbazide is present in the perovskite precursor solution, the formed perovskite thin film is uniform, continuous, dense, has few voids with small volume, has high crystallinity, and finally has high film quality; Figure 2 is a scanning electron microscope image of the bottom of the perovskite thin film obtained in Comparative Example 1 of the present application, when thiosemicarbazide is not present in the perovskite precursor solution, the formed perovskite thin film has voids, has poor crystallinity, and finally has poor film quality;

[0079] (2) Comparing Example 1 with Examples 4-8 and Comparative Example 1, it was found that the amount of thiocarbazine used in Example 4 was very small, resulting in a concentration of thiocarbazine in the perovskite precursor solution that was lower than the preferred range of 0.5-3 mg / mL. Due to the insufficient effect of thiocarbazine, the conversion efficiency of the obtained device was only 0.3% higher than that of Comparative Example 1. In Examples 5-7, the amount of thiocarbazine was increased in turn, resulting in a concentration of thiocarbazine in the perovskite precursor solution that was increased in turn within the preferred range. The appropriate amount of thiocarbazine effectively reduced the voids at the bottom of the perovskite film, which reduced the defects at the interface and thus effectively reduced the recombination of charge carriers, ultimately achieving a higher photoelectric conversion efficiency. However, Example 8 used an excessive amount of additive, resulting in a concentration of thiocarbazine in the perovskite precursor solution that was higher than the preferred range. This affected the crystallinity of the perovskite film, which damaged the short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, and fill factor of the obtained perovskite solar cell. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the obtained device was significantly lower than that of Example 1.
