Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of solar cell technology, and more specifically, to the application of a 1,4-disubstituted fullerene in solar cells. Background Technology

[0002] Because electrons diffuse for a shorter length than holes, holes are more easily extracted than electrons in perovskites. This imbalance in electron and hole diffusion lengths is a common characteristic of metal halide perovskites. Therefore, improving charge extraction efficiency is crucial for further enhancing device performance.

[0003] Fullerenes and their derivatives, due to their high electron transport performance and good energy level matching with perovskite materials, have been applied in perovskite solar cells. Introducing fullerenes and their derivatives as additives into the perovskite layer can improve electron extraction efficiency, resulting in a more balanced electron and hole transport. Furthermore, it can effectively passivate defects in the perovskite film itself and suppress ion migration, thereby improving the overall performance of the device.

[0004] Using organic halide salts (especially chlorides) to passivate defects is an effective way to improve the power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells because the Pb-Cl bond is stronger than the Pb-I and Pb-Br bonds. However, the small radius Cl... - Anions can easily be incorporated into the perovskite lattice, thereby distorting the lead halide octahedron and reducing photovoltaic performance.

[0005] When perovskite solar cells are used as the top cells in tandem solar cells, wide-bandgap perovskite materials are required. To improve the efficiency of tandem solar cells, there is an urgent need for high-performance and stable wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells. However, the widening of the perovskite bandgap leads to difficulties in improving the efficiency of perovskite solar cells and the phase separation phenomenon in perovskite.

[0006] Therefore, researching and developing a novel fullerene derivative is of great significance for improving the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells and tandem solar cells. Summary of the Invention

[60] fullerene, as a fullerene derivative, can be introduced into perovskite solar cells as an additive. On the one hand, it can improve the electron extraction efficiency and make the transmission of electrons and holes more balanced. On the other hand, when the above fullerene derivative is applied to perovskite solar cells, it can effectively passivate the defects in the perovskite active layer itself, effectively regulate the crystallization of perovskite active materials, suppress phase separation, and thus improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells.

[60] fullerene is significantly different. 60Each of the two substituents contains a chlorine atom, thus its application in perovskite solar cells can achieve multi-site chlorine passivation, reducing uncoordinated Pb. 2+ Ion defects and oxygen vacancies create interfacial defects, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells while exerting their passivation effect.

[0157] Comparing Examples 1, 4 to 6, it can be seen that, compared with other ranges, limiting the doping amount of 1-chlorophenyl-4-(4-chlorophenyl)

[60] fullerene to the preferred range of this application is beneficial to further improve the electron extraction efficiency and further suppress the phase separation phenomenon, thereby further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of pin-type perovskite solar cells.
