Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic device fabrication technology, specifically to a method for improving the stretching properties of organic photovoltaic thin films, and an organic solar cell and its fabrication method. Background Technology

[0002] Organic solar cells offer significant advantages such as flexibility, lightweight, low cost, and ease of large-area fabrication. Based on these advantages, they can be fabricated into thin films, better adapting to various shapes and curved surfaces, making them ideal for wearable device applications. Therefore, developing organic solar cells with good stretchability is an effective strategy for optimizing wearable technology.

[0003] Currently, most high-efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs) use active layers based on polymer donor-acceptor blends. These blends exhibit poor mechanical properties, with crack initiation strain less than 10% and an elastic modulus around 1 GPa, failing to meet the requirements for flexible wearable applications of OSCs. In recent years, several methods have been proposed to improve the tensile properties of OSC thin films. These include introducing polymers with high elasticity and good mechanical properties, such as polyurethane, silicone rubber, and polyether esters, into the organic layer material; or designing dynamic polymers using dynamic covalent or non-covalent interactions. These dynamic bonds can break under stress and reform after stress release, endowing the film with self-healing and excellent tensile recovery capabilities. However, while these methods impart better tensile properties, they may also sacrifice some photoelectric conversion efficiency. Therefore, improving the mechanical properties of the active layer while maintaining or enhancing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of OSCs remains a problem to be solved.

[0030] Figure 4 This diagram illustrates the change in mobility of the organic solar cell (PTB7-Th:N2200) prepared in this invention under different stretch-release cycles at 50% strain when F4-TCNQ accounts for 1% of the total donor and acceptor mass. Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] In this embodiment, the electron donor material used in the organic photovoltaic raw materials is 2 mg of PM6, the electron acceptor material is 2.5 mg of BTP-eC9, the softening agent is 0.009 mg of F2-TCNQ, the solvent is chloroform, the substrate is polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and the specific process for preparing the organic photovoltaic thin film is as follows:

[0034] 1) The glass substrate was ultrasonically cleaned with isopropanol, detergent dilution, deionized water, acetone and isopropanol in sequence for 15 minutes. Then the isopropanol solvent on the surface was dried with nitrogen and then treated with ultraviolet ozone (UV-Ozone) for 25 minutes.

[0035] 2) Spin-coat the PSS dilution (PSS to H2O volume ratio of 1:4) onto the glass substrate at a speed of 5000 r / min for 30s, then dry it in a forced-air oven at 150℃ for 20min, and transfer the glass slide with PSS spin-coated to an inert atmosphere glove box for later use.

[0036] 3) Spin-coat the prepared organic photovoltaic raw materials onto the cooled PSS layer at a speed of 2500 r / min for 30 s to obtain an organic photovoltaic thin film;

[0037] 4) Place the glass slide on a 100℃ hot plate for 10 minutes to perform heat annealing on the organic photovoltaic thin film;

[0038] 5) The organic photovoltaic film is attached to the PDMS substrate (PDMS and curing agent are mixed at a volume ratio of 10:1 and cured at 90°C for 50 minutes). Then, the glass sheet attached to the PDMS substrate is placed in deionized water for several tens of minutes until the PSS layer is dissolved by the deionized water, the glass sheet is detached, and only the active layer film is attached to the PDMS substrate. This realizes the transfer of the organic photovoltaic film from the glass substrate to the PDMS substrate, resulting in a PDMS substrate with organic photovoltaic film.

[0039] Example 2:

[0040] The difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that: 0.0225 mg of F2-TCNQ organic photovoltaic raw material flexible agent is selected, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 is used to prepare PDMS substrate II with organic photovoltaic thin film.

[0041] Example 3:

[0042] The difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that: 0.045 mg of F2-TCNQ was selected as the organic photovoltaic raw material softener, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 was used to prepare the PDMS substrate with organic photovoltaic film.

[0043] Example 4:

[0044] The difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that: 0.09 mg of F2-TCNQ organic photovoltaic raw material flexible agent is selected, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 is used to prepare PDMS substrate four with organic photovoltaic thin film.

[0045] Example 5:

[0046] The difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that: 0.45 mg of F2-TCNQ was selected as the organic photovoltaic raw material softener, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 was used to prepare the PDMS substrate with organic photovoltaic film.

[0047] Comparative Example 1:

[0048] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the flexible agent F2-TCNQ is not added, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 is used to prepare the PDMS substrate of ordinary organic photovoltaic film.

[0049] The PDMS substrates 1, ..., PDMS substrate 6 prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 were sequentially clamped on a stretching machine to conduct mechanical tests on the organic photovoltaic thin films. Simultaneously, observation was performed using a polarizing microscope. The stretching test continued until fine cracks appeared in the active layer film, at which point the tensile strain was taken as the crack initiation strain (e.g., ...). Figure 2 (as shown);

[0050] Conclusion: From Figure 2 It can be seen that adding a small amount of flexible agent during the preparation of organic photovoltaic thin films can effectively improve the stretchability of organic photovoltaic thin films, and as the amount of flexible agent added increases, the stretchability of organic photovoltaic thin films gradually decreases (although the overall stretchability is still higher than that of films without added flexible agent).

[0051] Example 6:

[0052] In this embodiment, 1 mg of PTB7-Th was used as the electron donor, 1 mg of N2200 was used as the electron acceptor, 0.01 mg of F4-TCNQ was used as the flexibility agent, chloroform was used as the solvent, and the organic solar cell was prepared by the following method:

[0053] S1. The conductive substrate is ultrasonically cleaned sequentially with detergent dilution, deionized water, acetone and isopropanol. Then, the surface isopropanol solvent is dried with nitrogen. Finally, the conductive substrate is treated with ultraviolet ozone for 30 minutes using an ultraviolet ozone cleaner.

[0054] S2. Spin-coat PDEOT:PSS solution onto the surface of the ozone-treated conductive substrate at 4000 r / min for 30 s. Then place it in a forced-air oven to dry at 150 ℃ for 20 min to obtain a dry hole transport layer.

[0055] S3. The conductive substrate with the hole transport layer spin-coated is transferred into the glove box. The raw material of the organic photovoltaic thin film active layer is spin-coated on the surface of the hole transport layer under spin-coating conditions of 2500 r / min for 60 s. Then, the conductive substrate is placed on a 100°C hot table for 10 min to perform thermal annealing treatment on the organic photovoltaic thin film active layer. The electron donor material in the raw material of the organic photovoltaic thin film active layer is PTB7-Th, the electron acceptor material is N2200, the softening agent is F4-TCNQ, and the organic solvent is chloroform. The mass ratio of PTB7-Th to N2200 is 1.

[0056] S4. Spin-coat a PFN-Br electron transport layer onto the surface of the active layer of the annealed organic photovoltaic thin film under spin-coating conditions of 3000 r / min and 40 s.

[0057] S5. Place the conductive substrate with the PFN-Br electron transport layer spin-coated into a vacuum evaporation equipment, and deposit a 100nm thick metal electrode Ag on the PFN-Br surface to obtain an organic solar cell.

[0058] Example 7:

[0059] The difference between this embodiment and Example 6 is that: in this embodiment, 0.02 mg of F4-TCNQ is used as the flexibility enhancer, and the organic solar cell II is prepared using the same preparation method as in Example 6.

[0060] Example 8:

[0061] The difference between this embodiment and Example 6 is that: in this embodiment, 0.1 mg of F4-TCNQ is used as the flexibility enhancer, and the organic solar cell is prepared using the same preparation method as in Example 6.

[0062] Comparative Example 2:

[0063] The difference between this comparative example and Example 6 is that the flexible agent F4-TCNQ is not added, and the organic solar cell is prepared using the same preparation method as in Example 6.

[0064] The organic solar cells prepared in Examples 6-8 and Comparative Example 2 were sequentially tested under standard test conditions (AM 1.5, 100mW cm⁻¹). -2 The device performance of the organic solar cell was tested, and the results are shown in Table 1:

[0065] Table 1

[0066]

[0067] Conclusion: As shown in Table 1 above, adding a small amount of flexible agent to the organic photovoltaic film of organic solar cells can improve the energy conversion efficiency of organic solar cells. Furthermore, with the increase of F4-TCNQ content, the photovoltaic performance of organic solar cells first increases and then decreases.

[0068] Example 9:

[0069] In this embodiment, the electron donor material is selected as 1 mg of PTB7-Th, the electron acceptor material is selected as 1 mg of N2200, the flexible agent is selected as F4-TCNQ, and the added mass is (0.01, 0.02, 0.1) mg, that is, F4-TCNQ accounts for (0.5, 1, 5)% of the total mass of donor and acceptor (PTB7-Th+N2200). The solvent is chloroform, the substrate is selected as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and the same preparation method as in Example 1 is used to prepare PDMS substrates seven, eight, and nine with organic photovoltaic thin films.

[0070] Comparative Example 3:

[0071] The difference between this comparative example and Example 9 is that: in this example, F4-TCNQ flexible agent is not added, and the same preparation method as in Example 1 is used to prepare the PDMS substrate of ordinary organic photovoltaic film.

[0072] Tensile tests were performed on the prepared PDMS substrates at scores of 7, 8, 9, and 10 on water to obtain their strain-stress curves, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown;

[0073] Conclusion: Through Figure 3 It can be seen that the tensile properties of the active layer film were significantly improved compared with those without flexible agent (Comparative Example 3). However, the improvement in tensile properties is affected by changes in the content of small molecule flexible agent. As the content of flexible agent increases, the optimization effect first increases and then decreases. Therefore, the content of flexible agent does not necessarily improve the stretchability (ductility) of the active layer of organic solar cells more; a suitable range is still needed.

[0074] Example 10:

[0075] In this embodiment, the electron donor material is selected as 1 mg of PTB7-Th, the electron acceptor material is selected as 1 mg of N2200, the flexible agent is selected as F4-TCNQ, and the mass of F4-TCNQ added is 0.02 mg, that is, F4-TCNQ accounts for 1% of the total mass of donor and acceptor (PTB7-Th+N2200). The solvent is chloroform, the substrate is selected as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and the organic solar cell five is prepared by the same method as in Example 6.

[0076] Comparative Example 4:

[0077] The difference between this comparative example and Example 4 is that F4-TCNQ is not added, and the organic solar cell VI is prepared using the same method as in Example 6.

[0078] The prepared organic solar cells V and VI were characterized using a Keithley 2400 digital source meter (Keithley Source Meter Corporation, USA) in an argon glove box to assess the performance of single-hole devices. Mobility changes after different numbers of cyclic stretching-releasing cycles at 50% strain were tested. Figure 4 As shown.

[0079] Conclusion: Through Figure 4 It can be seen that compared with the sample with added flexible agent, the migration rate of the sample without added flexible agent decreased significantly with the increase of the number of cycles of stretching-release. However, compared with the active layer film without added F4-TCNQ, the migration rate of the active layer film with added F4-TCNQ did not decrease significantly with the increase of the number of cycles.

[0080] In summary, this invention adds a small amount of flexible agent to the donor and acceptor raw materials of organic photovoltaic thin films, which can improve the aggregated state structure of the organic photovoltaic thin films and is beneficial to photovoltaic performance. This improves the stretchability of the active layer, reduces the modulus, lowers the cost, and enhances conductivity and cyclic tensile stability while maintaining or improving the photovoltaic performance of the active layer. Furthermore, applying this method to organic solar cells can improve the conductivity, enhance the cyclic tensile stability, and reduce the cost of organic solar cells without altering other structures. This invention only proposes applying this method to positively mounted organic solar cells; it is also applicable to reverse-mounted organic solar cells, organic light-emitting diodes, organic thin-film transistors, organic photodetectors, etc.
