Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of solar cell technology, specifically relating to a solar cell device, its fabrication method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Since Weber first introduced methylamine ions into a crystal structure in 1978, forming an organic-inorganic perovskite material with a three-dimensional structure, extensive research has been conducted on this ABX3-structured perovskite material. It has been found to possess many excellent properties, including a high absorption coefficient, long carrier diffusion length, and tunable bandgap. Therefore, this organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite material is very suitable as a light-absorbing layer for solar cells.
[0003] In 2009, researchers first achieved a photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of 3.8% using CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3PbBr3 as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells. In just over a decade, the highest PCE of perovskite solar cells has reached 25.7%, approaching the highest efficiency of crystalline silicon solar cells. Perovskite solar cells are mainly divided into formal NIP structures and inverted PIN structures. However, the low PCE of both formal and inverted solar cells over large areas has been a significant factor restricting their development, especially for inverted solar cells. Since inverted perovskite solar cells are more suitable for the fabrication of tandem solar cells, they are more commercially viable. Therefore, improving the efficiency of large-area solar cells is a major concern.
[0004] CN113421979A discloses a vapor-phase passivation method for perovskite thin films and a photovoltaic device based thereon. The method includes the following steps: (1) preparing a PbI2 thin film as a precursor film; (2) reacting MAI powder and the PbI2 thin film in a tube furnace to generate a MAPbI3 perovskite thin film; (3) reacting tBBAI powder and the MAPbI3 thin film in a tube furnace to generate a passivation layer, thus obtaining the perovskite thin film. However, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell reaches a maximum of 17.28%, which still needs further improvement.
[0005] CN114242900A discloses an inverted flexible perovskite solar cell and its fabrication method. The solar cell, from bottom to top, comprises: a flexible substrate, a conductive thin-film electrode layer, a hole transport layer, a perovskite light-absorbing layer, an electron transport layer, and a back electrode. The flexible substrate is made of polyimide (PI). By adjusting the structure of the inverted flexible perovskite solar cell, the stability of the solar cell can be improved. However, the conversion efficiency of the solar cell needs further improvement.
[0006] A common drawback of existing technologies is that, due to inherent defects in the perovskite absorber layer of perovskite solar cells and the coating process used for fabrication, defects easily arise at the perovskite interface. These defects lead to a large number of non-radiative recombinations in perovskite solar cells, resulting in low photoelectric conversion efficiency and making them unsuitable for large-area coating.
[0007] Therefore, developing a solar cell suitable for large-area coating processes and with high photoelectric conversion efficiency over a large area is an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a solar cell device, its fabrication method, and its applications. The solar cell device, by setting a one-dimensional passivation layer between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, and a two-dimensional passivation layer between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, improves the open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, and fill factor of the perovskite solar cell device. This, in turn, enhances the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell over a large area, making it more suitable for large-area coating processes and more conducive to commercialization.
[0009] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0010] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a solar cell device comprising an electron transport layer, a one-dimensional passivation layer, a perovskite absorber layer, a two-dimensional passivation layer, and a hole transport layer stacked sequentially.
[0011] In this invention, the solar cell device improves the fill factor, short-circuit current, and open-circuit voltage of the perovskite solar cell by setting a one-dimensional passivation layer between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, i.e., using a one-dimensional material to passivate the interface defects between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer; and by setting a two-dimensional passivation layer between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, i.e. using a two-dimensional material to passivate the interface defects between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer. After passivation treatment, it is more conducive to the hole extraction ability of the hole transport layer. By performing double passivation treatment on the upper and lower interfaces of the perovskite absorber layer, defects on the perovskite surface are reduced, thereby improving the hole transport ability between the interface of the perovskite absorber layer and the hole transport layer, as well as the electron extraction ability between the interface of the perovskite absorber layer and the electron transport layer. This reduces the formation of non-radiative recombination, improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the inverted perovskite solar cell device, and makes it more suitable for large-area coating processes.

[0123] Test conditions
[0124] The perovskite solar cells provided in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to performance testing, and the testing methods are as follows:
[0125] Photovoltaic conversion efficiency test: A standard sunlight beam (spectral AM 1.5G, incident power 100mW / cm²) was emitted using a solar simulator. 2 The open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current and fill factor were measured on the perovskite device at a temperature of 25℃.
[0126] Photoelectric conversion efficiency = open circuit voltage × short circuit current × fill factor, with an area of 20cm × 20cm.
[0127] The specific test results are shown in Table 1:
[0128] Table 1
[0129]
[0130]
[0131] As shown in the table above, the solar cell device provided by this invention improves the fill factor, short-circuit current, and open-circuit voltage of the perovskite solar cell by setting a one-dimensional passivation layer between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer to passivate the interface defects between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer. Similarly, setting a two-dimensional passivation layer between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer to passivate the interface defects between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer improves the hole extraction capability of the hole transport layer. By performing double passivation treatment on the upper and lower interfaces of the perovskite absorber layer, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell device over a large area is improved. As shown in Examples 1-8, the short-circuit current of the perovskite solar cell device is 23.22-24.45 mA / cm². 2 The fill factor is 71.69–78.06%, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is 18.05–19.48% under the condition of an area of 20cm×20cm.
[0132] As can be seen from Examples 1 and 9 and 10, the materials of the one-dimensional passivation layer or the two-dimensional passivation layer are not the types or combinations limited by the present invention, resulting in a decrease in short-circuit current and a deterioration in photoelectric conversion efficiency; as can be seen from Examples 1 and 11 and 12, the material concentration of the one-dimensional passivation layer or the two-dimensional passivation layer is not within a specific range, resulting in a deterioration in photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0133] As can be seen from the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6, the solar cell device described is not the structure defined in this invention, and the battery performance deteriorates.
[0134] In summary, the solar cell device provided by this invention, by using one-dimensional and two-dimensional materials to passivate the interface between the electron transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, and the interface between the hole transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer, respectively, is beneficial to improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell, making it more suitable for large-area coating processes, and more conducive to commercialization.
