Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the rapid growth of the global population and the rapid development of the economy, energy demand has increased dramatically. However, most energy consumption currently comes from fossil fuels, causing serious environmental pollution and the greenhouse effect. Therefore, the development and effective utilization of renewable and clean energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal energy is urgent. Among them, solar energy is an inexhaustible clean energy source, and solar cells are one of the effective means of utilizing solar energy. In recent years, perovskite solar cells have attracted much attention in the photovoltaic research field due to their advantages such as high efficiency, low cost, and the ability to be fabricated into flexible devices. They have become a new generation of solar cells comparable to silicon crystalline cells. Compared with crystalline silicon solar cells, researchers have found that perovskite solar cells have advantages such as a wider light absorption range, extremely high molar absorption coefficient, longer electron and hole diffusion lengths, and the ability to be synthesized in the liquid phase. Furthermore, the band gap of perovskite materials can be changed by adjusting their chemical composition, thereby obtaining thin films with different light absorption regions and tunable colors, making the application range of perovskite solar cells wider.

[0003] Currently, in the laboratory stage, the main method for fabricating perovskite solar cells is spin coating. However, this method is difficult to integrate with industrial production, resulting in significant material waste and high device costs. Newly developed methods such as spraying, scraping, and slot coating have strict requirements for equipment precision and environmental sealing, and are also complex and costly, making them unsuitable for the industrial production of large-area perovskite solar cells.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] This invention provides a method for preparing large-area perovskite thin films by confined hot pressing, comprising the following steps:

[0037] Step 1: Prepare the perovskite precursor solution;

[0038] Step 2: Operate the transmission device 30 to control the hot pressing assembly 50 to maintain a certain distance from the substrate 20 on the working base 10;

[0039] Step 3: Inject the perovskite precursor solution into the top of the hot-pressing assembly 50, and use a booster to push the perovskite precursor solution into each channel.

[0040] Step 4: Once the perovskite precursor solution flows out from the bottom channels 40 of the hot-pressing assembly 50 and connects to form a dense, uniform, and flat perovskite wet film covering the substrate, stop the injection.

[0041] Step 5: Finely adjust the transmission device 30 according to the required perovskite film thickness to control the distance between the hot pressing assembly 50 and the substrate 20;

[0042] Step 6: Turn on the global heating system of the hot pressing assembly to dry the perovskite wet film and form a perovskite thin film, and slowly raise the hot pressing assembly 50 to allow the solvent in the perovskite precursor solution to evaporate.

[0043] Step 7: Turn on the heating device of the working platform 10 to anneal the perovskite film.

[0044] The perovskite precursor solution components include MAPbI3, MAPbBr3, MAPbCl3, and MAPbI 3-x Br x MAPbI 3-x Cl x MA y FA 1-y PbI3, MA y FA 1-y PbI 3-x Cl x MA y FA 1-y PbI 3-x Br x The solvent is any one of CsSnxPb1-xI3, CsPbI3, CsSnI3 and CsPbBr3, and is one or a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), γ-butyrolactone (GBA), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), hydroiodic acid and dimethyl ethanol (2-ME).

[0045] The concentration of the prepared perovskite precursor solution was 1-2.5 mol / mL.

[0046] Based on the above methods for growing large-area perovskite thin films, this invention also provides an apparatus for preparing large-area perovskite thin films by confined hot pressing, as described above. Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,and Figure 3 ,include:

[0047] The working platform 10 is used to place the substrate 20. It integrates a vacuum adsorption device to ensure that the substrate 20 is fixed and does not move, and can perform annealing treatment on the perovskite film.

[0048] The hot-pressing assembly 50 is used to hot-press a perovskite thin film onto the surface of the substrate 20. Its top 60 is a perovskite solution injection structure; the bottom consists of high-density microchannels with a microstructure that allows the perovskite solution injected from the top to flow out continuously, forming a dense, uniform, and flat perovskite wet film. Each channel 40 at the bottom has an independent opening and closing function, allowing for the opening and closing of some channels depending on the substrate size, preventing perovskite solution from flowing out and contaminating the working platform 10. Furthermore, it has an internal global heating system that can quickly dry the perovskite precursor solution to form a perovskite thin film.

[0049] The transmission device 30 integrates a distance sensor, which can precisely control the distance between the hot pressing component 50 and the substrate 20 on the working platform 10, ensuring the control accuracy at the micrometer level, thereby forming perovskite films of different thicknesses.

[0050] Furthermore, the transmission device 30 is operated to control the hot pressing assembly 50 to maintain a distance of 500 μm from the substrate 20 on the working base 10.

[0051] Furthermore, a perovskite precursor solution is added through the top 60 of the hot-pressing assembly. The amount of solution added depends on the size of the substrate. The perovskite solution is pushed into each channel using the booster 70. The bottom of the hot-pressing assembly is observed. When the perovskite solution flowing out of the channel 40 forms a dense, uniform, and flat perovskite wet film on the substrate 20, the injection is stopped.

[0052] Furthermore, the transmission device 30 is finely adjusted to control the distance between the hot pressing component 50 and the substrate 20 to be between 30-300 μm, according to the required perovskite film thickness.

[0053] Furthermore, the global heating system for the hot-pressing component has a heating temperature between 150-250℃ and a duration of 1-2 minutes; the hot-pressing component speed is increased to 5-20 mm / s.

[0054] Furthermore, the working platform is heated and annealed at a temperature between 100-150℃ for 10-15 minutes.

[0055] Furthermore, the substrate 20 is made of any one of ITO conductive glass, ITO conductive plastic, FTO conductive glass, AZO conductive glass, ZTO conductive glass, ATO conductive glass, or Si wafer. The surface of the substrate 20 is covered with a dense oxide layer, which is any one of titanium dioxide (TiO2), tin dioxide (SnO2), zinc oxide (ZnO), or nickel oxide (NiO).

[0056] In this embodiment, the working platform 10 is used to place the substrate 20. It integrates a vacuum adsorption device to ensure the substrate 20 is fixed and does not move. The platform has a surrounding enclosure and a bottom heating function for annealing the perovskite film. The surrounding enclosure also prevents the perovskite precursor solution from flowing out of the platform and contaminating the environment. The hot-pressing assembly 50 has a cylindrical structure at its top 60 for injecting the perovskite precursor solution. The bottom consists of high-density small channels 40, all connected to the top injection structure. Due to its microstructure, the bottom channels allow the perovskite precursor solution to spread and connect, forming a dense, uniform, and flat perovskite wet film. Furthermore, the hot-pressing assembly has a global heating system that provides global heating during operation, enabling rapid drying of the perovskite wet film to form a perovskite film. The transmission device 30 is used to move the hot-pressing assembly. It integrates a distance sensor to precisely control the distance between the hot-pressing assembly and the substrate on the working platform, thereby forming perovskite films of different thicknesses. This equipment has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It has low requirements for precision and airtightness and can produce high-quality large-area perovskite thin films, which will help promote the industrial production and application of large-area perovskite solar cells.
