Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a perovskite solar cell, specifically to a high-efficiency, stable perovskite solar cell that synergistically improves defects and ion migration. Background Technology

[0002] Perovskite solar cells belong to the third generation of photovoltaic solar cell technology. Their structure consists of an electron transport layer (ETL, such as SnO2 or TiO2), a perovskite light-absorbing material (ABX3 (A = CH3NH3(MA) or Cs, etc., B = Pb, Sn, etc., X = I, Br, Cl)), a hole transport layer (HTL, such as spiro-OMeTAD), and a metal counter electrode. Due to their high efficiency, low cost, simple manufacturing process, and environmental friendliness, they have become a key research focus in the field of optoelectronic devices. In 2022, their photoelectric conversion efficiency reached 25.7%, demonstrating extremely high development and application potential. Although perovskite solar cells, as a novel photovoltaic device, have achieved photoelectric conversion efficiencies far exceeding other types of solar cells, devices using organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite as the light-absorbing material are extremely sensitive to photothermal and water / oxygen conditions, and are easily decomposed. This results in poor stability of such devices, limiting their practical application.

[0003] CN109545970A discloses a method for improving the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells, and a perovskite solar cell itself. The method improves the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells in air without encapsulation by adding a small amount of hydrophobic organic small molecules to the antisolvent used to prepare the perovskite light-absorbing layer. Perovskite solar cells are classified into two types based on their structure: formal and trans-form, both with an ABX3 structure for their perovskite light-absorbing layer. Results show that the small molecules added to the antisolvent are conjugated organic small molecules containing thiophene structural units or any one of the elements S, N, or O. These molecules can reduce grain boundaries and surface defects in the perovskite layer in both device structures, ultimately improving the efficiency and stability of the perovskite solar cell. This method adds conjugated organic small molecules containing thiophene structural units or any one of the elements S, N, or O to the antisolvent, which interact with the B-site elements (e.g., Pb) within the crystal lattice. 2+ This method involves forming coordination bonds to stabilize the perovskite lattice. It discusses solutions to perovskite stability from the perspective of the perovskite material lattice. However, its drawback is that it only addresses the instability of B-site elements, without proposing solutions for the instability of A-site elements within the lattice.

[0004] CN111740015A discloses a perovskite precursor solution for improving the stability of perovskite solar cells. Formamidine iodide and cesium iodide are added to a solvent, stirred, and then methyl bromide is added. After stirring, lead iodide and 3,4-dichloroaniline are added and stirred again to obtain the perovskite precursor solution for improving the stability of perovskite solar cells. The perovskite precursor solution for improving the stability of perovskite solar cells is spin-coated onto a substrate and thermally annealed to obtain a perovskite thin film, which serves as the light-absorbing layer of the solar cell. The prepared perovskite precursor solution for improving the stability of perovskite solar cells replaces the existing perovskite layer, overcoming the defects in existing perovskite mineralization technology. It provides a method for improving the stability of perovskite with low requirements for the process environment during cell fabrication, convenient preparation method, and the ability to maintain stable properties for a long time in ordinary environments. Compared to methylamine (CH3NH3), formamidine (N2H4CH) and cesium (Cs) exhibit better stability in perovskite lattices. This method improves the stability of perovskite materials by replacing part of the methylamine with formamidine and cesium at the A-site of the perovskite lattice. However, a drawback is that only A-site elements are discussed.

[0005] CN113416155A discloses a method for preparing an additive for perovskite solar cells and its application, comprising the following steps: 1) placing a tetrafluoroboric acid solution in a glass container, then slowly adding guanidine carbonate powder to the tetrafluoroboric acid solution while continuously stirring to ensure a full reaction until no more bubbles are generated; 2) filtering the mixture using a Buchner funnel to separate the precipitate generated by the reaction, then washing the precipitate with dichloromethane organic solvent to obtain a white precipitate of guanidine tetrafluoroborate; 3) drying the obtained white precipitate of guanidine tetrafluoroborate in a vacuum drying oven to obtain the guanidine tetrafluoroborate additive. Applying this additive to the perovskite active layer of a perovskite solar cell can effectively improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell and enable it to have a longer lifespan while maintaining a high photoelectric conversion efficiency, thus improving the stability of the perovskite solar cell. This method uses guanidine tetrafluoroborate as an additive in perovskite materials to improve charge transport and passivate internal defects in the perovskite materials, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells. A drawback of this method is the limited range of passivation effects. Although perovskite materials have a high tolerance for defects, various Schottky and Frankel defects within the material cannot be completely eliminated.

[0006] The above methods can improve the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells to some extent, but it is still difficult to achieve high efficiency and high stability. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art and provide a perovskite solar cell that has both high photoelectric conversion efficiency and high humidity stability.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is as follows: a high-efficiency, air humidity-stable perovskite solar cell that synergistically improves defects and ion migration, having a perovskite active layer, the chemical formula of which is FA. x MA y Cs z PbX3, x+y+z=1, where X is selected from one, two, or three elements from I, Br, and Cl; the perovskite active layer also contains a variable valence material;

[0009] The variable-valence material is: Ni-containing... 2+ and Ni 3+ substances containing Cu + and Cu 2+ substances containing Co 3+ and Co 2+ One or more of the following: substances, combinations of SeCN and Se(CN)2, combinations of disulfides and thiolates, and combinations of ferrocene and ferrocene salts.

[0010] Preferably, the Ni-containing 2+ and Ni 3+ The anions in the substance are polypyridine or F-containing groups.

[0012] Preferably, the Co-containing 3+ and Co 2+ The anions in the substance are polypyridine or F-containing groups.

[0013] This invention employs a type of "variable valence" electroactive material, the function of which is that the cations in the variable valence material can passivate Pb. 0 I 0 Defects such as anions and uncoordinated Pb improve the photoelectric efficiency of perovskite solar cells. 2+ Plasma interaction improves the phase stability of perovskite crystals; in variable valence materials, the content of variable valence ions of different valence states should be certain, such as the molar ratio of high valence ions to low valence ions = 1:5 to 5:1.

Both the negatively charged polymer layer and the positively charged polymer layer are adjacent to the perovskite active layer.

[0016] Perovskite solar cells have two charge transport layers above and below the perovskite layer, which determine charge extraction and transport. Therefore, an interface inevitably forms between the charge transport layer and the perovskite layer. These interfaces are prone to becoming non-radiative recombination centers, leading to significant energy loss and reduced device efficiency and stability. In this invention, positively charged and negatively charged polymers form positive and negative charge layers respectively at the upper and lower interfaces of the perovskite film, thereby creating an electric field on both sides of the perovskite film to accelerate carrier separation and transport. The negatively charged polymer at the bottom of the perovskite layer can react with the electron transport layer through Lewis coordination / electrostatic coupling, passivating oxygen vacancy defects. The positively charged polymer at the top of the perovskite layer can react with uncoordinated Pb on the perovskite surface. 2+ Defect ions act as a barrier, preventing the migration of elements in the perovskite to the metal electrode.
