Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of preparation of perovskite solar cells, and relates to a perovskite solar cell with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidizing agent and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells have become a research hotspot in the current photovoltaic field due to their excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency, low cost and easy preparation. So far, with the continuous progress of material engineering and device physics, the efficiency of perovskite solar cells has exceeded 25%. In perovskite solar cells, the hole transport material plays a decisive role in the efficiency and stability of the device. So far, most high-performance perovskite solar cells have adopted spiro-OMeTAD as the hole transport layer because it matches the energy level of perovskite, has good film-forming ability and good thermal stability. However, such devices still need a long time of air oxidation to achieve optimal efficiency. During the air oxidation process, water and oxygen contained in the air will penetrate from the hole transport layer to the perovskite layer, thereby seriously affecting the efficiency and stability of the device.
[0003] Therefore, more and more researches have proposed to accelerate the oxidation process of spiro-OMeTAD by chemical pre-oxidation strategies, such as cobalt salt complexes (FK102, FK209, FK269), copper salt (CuSCN), tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (BCF), FeCl3, benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and other oxidants have been successfully used as p-type dopants (the addition of these oxidants can accelerate the oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD, thereby effectively improving the conductivity and hole mobility of the hole transport layer); however, unfortunately, many oxidants are difficult to be used for commercial production of perovskite solar cells due to their complex preparation process and high cost. In addition, after the redox reaction between the oxidant and spiro-OMeTAD, new organic substances or low-valent metal cations will be generated, which may exist as impurities in the device. Worse still, the effect of these impurities on the performance of the device is uncertain, or they are harmful to the perovskite material. In addition to the effect of air oxidation on the performance of the device, the surface defects of the perovskite layer will also affect the efficiency and stability of the device.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of oxidant that is efficient, low-cost and can passivate the surface defects of perovskite, so as to be able to be incorporated into the hole transport material of perovskite solar cells to improve the related performance of perovskite solar cells.

[0076] Performance test
[0077] The performance of the perovskite solar cell doped with the bifunctional oxidant on the hole transport layer prepared in Example 1 was tested using Keithley 2400: the photocurrent-voltage curve was obtained under simulated AM 1.5G sunlight irradiation conditions (light intensity of 100 mW / cm 2 ), forward scanning -0.2 V→1.2 V, scanning rate 50 mV / S.
[0078] The ultraviolet-visible spectrum was measured on a Shimadzu UV-2550 absorption spectrophotometer; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was performed using a Thermo Nicolet 6700; external quantum efficiency (EQE) spectra were recorded using a computer-controlled device consisting of a xenon light source (Spectra Products ASB-XE-175), a monochromator (Spectra Products CM110), and a potentiostat (LabJack U6 DAQ board); long-term stability testing was performed on equipment in the glove box.
[0079] Figure 3are UV absorption spectra of different spiro-OMeTAD solutions, wherein a is the spiro-OMeTAD solution with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid added at a concentration of 2 mg / ml in Example 1, b is the spiro-OMeTAD solution that has undergone air oxidation in the comparative example, and c is the original spiro-OMeTAD solution in the comparative example. From Figure 3 It can be seen that the spiro-OMeTAD solution that has undergone air oxidation shows a new absorption peak in the wavelength range of 420-560 nm compared to the original spiro-OMeTAD solution, which can be attributed to the formation of spiro-OMeTAD + . It is worth noting that a higher absorption peak intensity is observed in the spiro-OMeTAD solution containing 2-iodoxybenzoic acid. This result indicates that 2-iodoxybenzoic acid can more effectively oxidize spiro-OMeTAD to spiro-OMeTAD + than normal air oxidation.
[0080] Figure 4 are Fourier infrared spectra of o-iodobenzoic acid (a) and o-iodobenzoic acid with lead iodide (b). From Figure 4 It can be seen that the C=O characteristic peak of o-iodobenzoic acid is located at 1684 cm -1 , and after mixing with PbI2, the position of the C=O peak moves to 1671 cm -1 . This shift in the peak is attributed to the Lewis acid-base interaction between C=O and Pb 2+ .
[0081] Figure 5 are J-V curve test results of the perovskite solar cell prepared in Example 1 with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidant (a) and the perovskite solar cell prepared in the comparative example (b). From Figure 5 It can be seen that the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of the perovskite solar cell prepared in the comparative example is 20.42% (J sc = 23.54 mA / cm 2 , V oc = 1.11 V, FF = 78%), while the perovskite solar cell prepared in Example 1 with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidant exhibits an excellent PCE of 22.45% (J sc = 24.13 mA / cm 2 , V oc = 1.14 V, FF = 82%). The increase in FF and Jsc is attributed to the improved conductivity and hole mobility of the hole transport layer after the addition of 2-iodoxybenzoic acid. V ocThe increase is due to the reduction products of 2-iodobenzoic acid passivating the surface defects of the perovskite layer, thereby reducing charge recombination.
[0082] The photoelectric performance parameters of the perovskite solar cell with hole transport layer doped with bifunctional oxidant prepared in Example 1 and the perovskite solar cell prepared in the comparative example are shown in Table 1.

[0085] Figure 6 To compare the JV curve test results of perovskite solar cells doped with different concentrations of 2-iodobenzoic acid in Examples 1, 2, and 3, from... Figure 6 It can be seen that with the increase of 2-iodobenzoic acid doping concentration, the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) increases from 20.42% to 22.45%, and the PCE shows a decreasing trend when the concentration is greater than 2 mg / mL. This may be because excessive 2-iodobenzoic acid leads to over-oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD, thereby reducing carrier mobility.
[0086] Figure 7 The external quantum efficiency test results are shown for the perovskite solar cell (a) with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidant prepared in Example 1 and the perovskite solar cell (b) prepared in the comparative example. Figure 7 It can be seen that after doping with 2-iodobenzoic acid, the integrated current density of the device increased from 22.13 mA / cm². 2 Increased to 22.71 mA / cm 2 This is consistent with the trend of the JV curve test results.
[0087] Figure 8 The long-term stability test results are shown for the perovskite solar cell (a) with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidant prepared in Example 1 and the perovskite solar cell (b) prepared in the comparative example. Figure 8 It can be seen that after 1200 hours of storage in the dark, the PCE of the 2-iodobenzoic acid-doped device remains at 91.7% of its initial value, while the PCE of the original device only drops to 79.2% of its initial value. This indicates that the 2-iodobenzoic acid-doped device has good long-term stability.
[0088] Figure 9 The JV curve test results are for the perovskite solar cells with hole transport layers doped with bifunctional oxidants prepared in Examples 1(a), 4(c). Figure 9It can be seen that the performance of the perovskite solar cell with the hole transport layer doped with the bifunctional oxidant prepared in Example 3 and Example 4 is similar to that of the perovskite solar cell with the hole transport layer doped with the bifunctional oxidant in Example 1(a).
[0089] In summary, the present application discloses a perovskite solar cell with a hole transport layer doped with a bifunctional oxidant (2-iodoxybenzoic acid), which can accelerate the conversion of spiro-OMeTAD to spiro-OMeTAD + under N2 atmosphere, thereby avoiding the adverse effects of water and oxygen on the stability of the device during the long air oxidation process; the generated cation (spiro-OMeTAD + ) can improve the conductivity and hole mobility of the hole transport layer; in addition, the reduction product of 2-iodoxybenzoic acid is o-iodobenzoic acid, and the functional groups (-C=O and -I) thereon can effectively passivate the uncoordinated lead ions on the surface of the perovskite active layer, thereby reducing the defect state density on the surface of the perovskite; finally, the method of doping spiro-OMeTAD with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid can improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the perovskite solar cell.
