Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of perovskite battery technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing and applying a double heterojunction passivated perovskite battery interface. Background Technology
[0002] Photovoltaic power generation, as a renewable energy source, has become one of the important directions for new energy development in various countries. Photovoltaic technology has evolved from first-generation silicon solar cells and second-generation gallium arsenide thin films to today's organic compound solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC), perovskite cells, and other new types of solar cells.
[0003] Perovskite solar cells, belonging to the third generation of emerging solar cells, have become a research hotspot in the photovoltaic industry and academia due to their advantages such as low cost, abundant raw material sources, and high power conversion efficiency. Despite these advantages, perovskite solar cells still face many unresolved issues. For example, perovskite exhibits instability under conditions of heat, oxygen, ultraviolet light, and water. Furthermore, carrier recombination caused by interfacial energy level mismatch and interface defects reduces the efficiency and stability of the cell, a significant reason for the reduced efficiency. These obstacles hindering the improvement of perovskite solar cell efficiency are among the major challenges facing the further high-efficiency production and application of perovskite solar cells.
[0004] Currently, there is an urgent need to develop a series of interface optimization schemes to passivate interface defects, adjust the interface band arrangement, and regulate perovskite crystallization to manage interface charge carriers. Chinese invention patent CN113611802A discloses a perovskite solar cell modified with organic small molecules, its preparation method, and its application. In this invention, the electron transport layer is a TiO2 or SnO2 thin film, and organic small molecule modifiers with an R1-CH=CHCOO-R2 structure, such as methyl acrylate or methyl methacrylate, are used. The modifiers are combined with ionic liquids to modify halide perovskites, improving their photoelectric properties, increasing the efficiency from 20% before modification to 22.4%.
[0005] Chinese invention patent CN115513383A discloses a method for stabilizing the perovskite / electron transport layer interface through the synergistic effect of functional groups and its application in solar cells. The method involves adding an interface-modifying molecule between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electron transport layer. This molecule contains potassium cations (K+) and organic anions, wherein the organic anion contains both sulfonyl and fluorine functional groups to stabilize the interface between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electron transport layer. The interface-modifying molecule is any one of potassium bis(trifluorosulfonyl)imide, potassium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, potassium methanesulfonate, or potassium chloride. This interface optimization scheme effectively passivates functional layers and interface defects, regulates the crystallization of lead iodide and the perovskite thin film, and improves the efficiency and stability of the battery. Its power conversion efficiency is increased from 21.2% to 23.21%.
[0006] Through continuous research, doping-modified transport layers have proven to be an effective strategy for obtaining high-quality, stable perovskite devices. Furthermore, introducing an additional energy level gradient layer between the transport layer and the perovskite absorber layer is a novel and effective way to modulate carrier transport in perovskites. However, relying solely on passivation often fails to achieve optimal passivation performance. Introducing another gradient transport layer to passivate the perovskite, based on a doped transport layer, will achieve a win-win performance outcome.
[0007] In view of this, the present invention utilizes metal ion doping to modify the TiO2 thin film transport layer, and prepares a SnO2 thin film on this basis. A layer of oxyacid anion is spin-coated on the surface of the SnO2 thin film to form a TiO2 / SnO2 / oxyacid anion double heterojunction electron transport layer to passivate the interface between the perovskite and the electron transport layer, thereby improving the transport capability of the electron transport layer, reducing carrier recombination at the interface, and improving the efficiency of the battery.

[0074] (2) In the preparation method of the present invention, the double heterojunction electron transport layer uses metal ions and oxyanions to synergistically enhance the transport layer, which not only modifies and optimizes the transport layer, but also modifies the surface and interface of the perovskite absorber layer, reduces the vacancy defects on the surface of the perovskite absorber layer, reduces the non-radiative recombination of the perovskite absorber layer, and achieves the effect of synergistic passivation of the perovskite surface and interface.
[0075] (3) The metal ions and oxyacid anions used in this invention are numerous and have simple sources; the passivation effect of the double heterojunction is presented in various ways. The oxyacid anions can not only be spin-coated on the surface of the perovskite film for interface passivation, but can also be directly added to the SnO2 electron transport layer aqueous solution to prepare TiO2 / SnO2@oxyacid anion double heterojunction electron transport layer, so as to achieve the same effect of co-passivating the interface of the perovskite film in different ways.

[0117] (2) Preparation of TiO2 / SnO2 thin film: Take 40 μL of SnO2 aqueous solution with a concentration of 3 wt%, spin-coat it onto the above TiO2 thin film at a speed of 5000 r / s, and calcine it at a low temperature of 150 °C for 30 min to form TiO2 / SnO2 thin film.
[0118] (3) Preparation of perovskite solar cell thin film and device: Weigh 272 mg of cesium iodide, 187 mg of lead bromide, and 235.5 mg of lead iodide powder and dissolve them in 1 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide solvent. Then stir at room temperature for 12 hours to form a perovskite CsPbI2Br solution. Subsequently, take 30-50 μL of the above perovskite CsPbI2Br solution and spin-coat it onto a TiO2 / SnO2 thin film substrate. Heat at 160 °C for 20 min to form the corresponding perovskite absorber layer film. After the film cools, spin-coat a poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) hole layer (15 mg / mL chlorobenzene solution), evaporate a silver electrode (80 nm thick), and assemble it into the corresponding perovskite solar cell.

[0120] Comparative Example 4
[0121] Unlike Example 1, in step (3), the sodium dodecahydrate aqueous solution is replaced with a potassium difluorosulfonamide solution with a concentration of 0.38 mol / L.
[0122] The remaining steps and parameters are as described in Example 1.
[0123] Comparative Example 5
[0124] Unlike Example 1, step (1) did not involve the preparation of a TiO2 thin film. Instead, a metal ion salt solution was doped into an aqueous SnO2 solution, specifically:
[0125] (1) FTO conductive glass was immersed in an aqueous solution of SnO2 containing 1 mg / ml CeCl2 with a SnO2 concentration of 3 wt%, and kept at 70 °C for 60 min. Then, the residual SnO2 on the FTO surface was rinsed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol, and calcined at 150 °C for 30 min to form a Ce-SnO2 film.
[0126] The remaining steps are as described in Example 1.
[0127] Comparative Example 6
[0128] Unlike Example 1, the SnO2 film coating in step (2) was not performed. Instead, an oxyacid anion solution was spin-coated directly onto a dense CeCl2-doped TiO2 (Ce-TiO2) film.
[0129] The remaining steps are as described in Example 1.
[0130] The perovskite solar cells prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were tested using a solar simulator at 100 mW / cm². -2 The photoelectric conversion efficiency was tested under standard light irradiation. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0132]
[0133] As shown in Table 1, compared with the comparative example, modifying both the TiO2 electron transport layer and the interface layer in the examples further improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery device. Furthermore, changes in the modification method and parameters affect the photoelectric conversion efficiency. The method for preparing the dual heterojunction electron transport layer and the dual heterojunction passivated perovskite battery interface of this invention improves the performance of the transport layer itself while simultaneously regulating the interface layer, achieving synergistic and optimal passivation.
[0134] The battery films prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to SEM detection. The SEM images are shown below. Figure 1-4 .
