Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic cell materials and relates to a D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material and a preparation method thereof and application in photovoltaic cells. Background Art
[0002] Perovskite solar cells, as an efficient, clean, and sustainable third-generation photovoltaic cell technology, have attracted widespread attention from researchers in the photovoltaic field due to their advantages, including high efficiency, low cost, the ability to fabricate large-area thick films, and adaptability to flexible substrates. In recent years, perovskite solar cells have experienced rapid development, demonstrating enormous potential for applications in solar power generation, lighting systems, aerospace, electric vehicles, and mobile communications. Continuous innovations in perovskite materials and device fabrication processes have driven the continuous improvement of perovskite solar cell efficiency. Interface materials play a key role in enhancing interfacial contact, charge transport, and device stability. Compared to the development of perovskite materials, the development of organic interface materials has lagged behind. The development of organic interface materials for perovskite solar cells faces several challenges: 1. Organic interface materials exhibit poor film morphology and solid-state aggregation, resulting in increased interface layer thickness and a significant decrease in interface performance; 2. Organic interface materials exhibit low charge transport and conductivity; 3. Organic interface materials also face stability and production cost challenges; and 4. Organic interface materials with excellent interfacial properties and general applicability are scarce and underdeveloped. The above key issues limit the subsequent development of organic interface materials and affect the commercialization process of perovskite solar cells.
[0003] In response to the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the prior art, we invented a DAD-type condensed-ring aromatic imide interface material (application number: 202310669869.4) based on our previous work. This patented technology combines the advantages of condensed-ring aromatic diimide and conjugated zwitterionic units to creatively develop a class of condensed-ring aromatic imide small molecule cathode interface materials. To a certain extent, it can solve the problems that restrict the application of organic interface materials, such as high thickness sensitivity, low conductivity and poor stability. However, its disadvantages are that the condensed-ring conjugated structure is small, but the synthesis is difficult, and the product performance needs to be further improved.
[0004] Therefore, the development of small molecule cathode interface materials with larger fused ring conjugated structures, self-assembly, self-doping, high carrier mobility, and good film-forming properties is of great significance to the development of perovskite solar cells. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In response to the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material, a preparation method thereof, and its application in photovoltaic cells. The interface material of the present invention is a small molecule cathode interface material with a larger condensed ring conjugated structure. It is a D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material with self-assembly, self-doping, high carrier mobility, and good film-forming properties. The condensed ring interface material of the present invention, its self-assembly and good film-forming properties are conducive to regulating the aggregation state and film morphology, and promoting a more regular and orderly molecular arrangement; the condensed ring conjugated skeleton and self-doping properties are beneficial to improving the electrical conductivity and charge transfer properties of the material; the combination of the condensed ring large conjugated unit and the fluorene conjugated skeleton can better enhance the stability of the material and reduce the material cost.

[0105] d. Preparation and testing of perovskite solar cells. Inverse perovskite solar cells were prepared with a cell structure of ITO / PTAA:F4-TCNQ / perovskite / PCBM-FY1 / Ag, where indium tin oxide (ITO) and silver metal served as electrodes, PTAA:F4-TCNQ, PCBM and FY1 served as hole transport layer, electron transport layer and cathode modification layer, and the perovskite layer was FA 0.80 MA 0.13 Cs 0.07 PbI 0.27 Br 0.13The battery production process: The ITO substrate is ultrasonically cleaned with ethanol, acetone and ultrapure water in sequence; after nitrogen purge, it is treated with ozone for 15 minutes; PTAA:F4-TCNQ chlorobenzene solution is spin-coated in a nitrogen glove box to a thickness of about 30nm and annealed for 2 minutes; FA is spin-coated using the sec-butanol anti-solvent method. 0.80 MA 0.13 Cs 0.07 PbI 0.27 Br 0.13 The precursor solution (solvent is a mixture of DMF and NMP at 0.87:0.13 v / v) is applied to a thickness of about 700 nm. The PCBM chlorobenzene solution is spin-coated to a thickness of 70-100 nm. The FY1 ethanol solution of different concentrations is spin-coated to a thickness of 5-50 nm. The spin-coated substrate is transferred to a vacuum evaporation chamber and the vacuum degree reaches 1×10 -4 When Pa, silver electrode (100nm) was evaporated. Battery performance test method and process: All batteries were not encapsulated and the performance test was carried out in a glove box filled with nitrogen. After the battery was obtained, its JV curve and EQE curve were tested, that is, Figures 6 to 8 The JV curve was measured using a Zolix Solar IV-150A-ZZU system, with a photocurrent of 100mWcm -2 The external quantum efficiency (EQE) spectra were measured using a Zolix SCS10-X150-DSSC-ZZU system under AM 1.5G illumination using a Zolix-HPS-300XA solar simulator and calibrated using a Zolix QE-B1 silicon solar cell.
[0106] Depend on Figures 6 to 8 As can be seen, FY1 exhibits excellent interface properties as a cathode interface modification layer for perovskite solar cells. Compared to existing cathode interface materials reported in the literature, FY1 can simultaneously maintain a higher short-circuit current density and fill factor. This is due to FY1's large fused-ring trapezoidal conjugated plane, good self-doping properties, and self-assembly characteristics.
[0107] Table 1 lists the optimal performance parameters of perovskite solar cells using different cathode interface layers, while Table 2 lists the optimal performance parameters of perovskite solar cells using FY1 cathode interface layers of varying thicknesses. As shown in Tables 1 and 2, the perovskite solar cells exhibit excellent photovoltaic performance. When the FY1 cathode interface layer thickness reaches 20nm, the cell still maintains an energy conversion efficiency exceeding 90%. These results demonstrate that this technology can achieve the preparation of high-conductivity, thickness-insensitive, and universally applicable high-efficiency cathode interface materials.

[0113] Comparative Example 1
[0114] The following comparative examples illustrate in detail the technological advancement of the D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material of the present invention relative to the DAD type organic cathode interface material synthesized in our early stage. The following is a detailed description of the DAD type organic cathode interface material NDTI1 as an example. The structural formula of the NDTI1 material is as follows. For its synthesis method, please refer to the invention patent "DAD type condensed ring aromatic imide interface material and its preparation method and application" (application number: 202310669869.4) we submitted to the State Intellectual Property Office of China in the early stage.
[0115]
[0116] NDTI1 is used as a cathode modification layer in organic solar cells, but not in perovskite solar cells. However, comparison shows that the D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material has a larger conjugated skeleton and stronger intramolecular interaction, which is conducive to enhancing the crystallinity of the material and further improving the carrier mobility and conductivity of the interface material, which can effectively improve the interface performance of the material. It can be seen that the material performance of the D'-A'-DAD-A'-D' type condensed ring interface material with the structure provided by the present invention after application is significantly higher than that of the DAD type condensed ring aromatic imide interface material.
