Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of perovskite solar cell technology, specifically to an organic hole transport material and its applications, and perovskite solar cells. Background Technology

[0002] As the most fundamental material basis for human societal development, energy demand has surged due to the rapid development of emerging industries driven by a new wave of technological advancements. The non-renewable nature and potential pollution risks of fossil fuels have compelled countries worldwide to vigorously explore and develop clean and environmentally friendly new energy sources. Among these new energy sources, solar energy has gained significant popularity due to its inexhaustible availability and wide applicability, leading to substantial progress in photovoltaic technology. Currently, silicon-based solar cells dominate the photovoltaic industry, but they still face challenges such as high production costs, energy-intensive manufacturing, and environmental pollution. Therefore, researchers are dedicated to developing more affordable and efficient perovskite solar cells to promote the widespread application of clean solar energy.

[0003] Common perovskite solar cells (PSCs) consist of a conductive glass substrate, an electron transport layer (ETL), a perovskite layer, a hole transport layer (HTL), and metal electrodes. Based on the deposition order of the charge transport layers during device fabrication, PSCs can be classified into two types: upright (nip) and inverted (pin). Their working principle can be summarized as follows: after the perovskite layer absorbs photon energy, electrons in the valence band undergo transitions to form electron-hole pairs. These pairs move under the influence of a built-in electric field and are collected by the electrodes to generate current. Currently, the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of pin devices has surpassed that of nip devices, and they possess unique advantages such as low hysteresis, mild fabrication conditions, and the ability to construct multilayer devices, thus attracting widespread research.

[0004] In pin PSCs, high-temperature sulfonate (HTL) is a crucial component, playing a role not only in selectively extracting and transporting holes but also influencing the quality of the perovskite layer as a growth substrate, thus significantly impacting device efficiency and stability. Currently, the most widely used HTL materials in pin PSCs are poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine] (PTAA) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-polystyrene sulfonic acid (PEDOT:PSS). PTAA is relatively expensive (>2000 RMB / gram) and has poor surface wettability, hindering large-scale applications; while PEDOT:PSS suffers from acidity and corrosiveness, compromising long-term device stability. These issues restrict the further development of pin PSCs, making the development of inexpensive, efficient, and stable novel HTL materials particularly important.

[0005] Among the many types of novel high-performance liquid chromatography (HTL) materials, self-assembled single-layer (SAMs) materials with anchoring groups (carboxylic acid groups, phosphonic acid groups, etc.) show potential for commercial applications. These materials possess unique advantages such as simple synthesis, good batch-to-batch reproducibility, and significant passivation effects. They can spontaneously anchor onto metal oxide surfaces to regulate interfacial energy level alignment and also exhibit high light transmittance, thus significantly improving the open-circuit voltage (V0.05) of devices. OC ) and short-circuit current (J SC However, small-molecule SAMs still suffer from poor stability and are prone to migration under stresses such as light and heat, leading to a decline in device performance. Therefore, solving this problem with small-molecule SAMs is crucial for advancing the commercialization of SAMs-based pin PSCs. Consequently, developing a hole transport material to enhance molecular stability and thus improve the long-term stability of perovskite solar cell devices is a pressing technical challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the above problems, this invention provides an organic hole transport material and its applications, as well as a perovskite solar cell.

[0007] On the one hand, the present invention provides an organic hole transport material, the structural formula of which is shown in formula (I):

[0008]

[0009] In this case, R is independently selected from C. 2-6 alkenyl, C 2-6 alkynyl group, C 1-6 Alkyl or halogen, and at least one R is C 2-6 alkenyl, C 2-6 Alkyne or halogen; n is an integer from 1 to 4.

[0010] On the other hand, the present invention also provides the use of the above-mentioned organic hole transport material as a hole transport material for perovskite solar cells.

[0011] In another aspect, the present invention provides a perovskite solar cell comprising a hole transport layer, wherein the hole transport layer comprises the aforementioned organic hole transport material.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) The present invention provides a self-assembled organic hole transport material with carbazole or its fused ring conjugated extended derivative as the parent core and carboxylic acid group as the anchoring group. By introducing substituted phenyl groups to conjugate with the parent core, the material has excellent performance and high light transmittance.

[0014] (2) The introduction of halogens, especially F, into the substituted phenyl group can greatly improve the hydrophobicity of organic hole transport materials and their affinity for perovskite precursor solutions, and synergistically enhance hole transport performance with the parent nucleus and phenyl group.

[0015] (3) Introducing unsaturated groups such as alkenyl, alkynyl, and especially ethylene end groups into the substituted phenyl group, and extending alkenyl functionalization through host conjugation, can achieve in-situ crosslinking through heat treatment (such as annealing), effectively inhibiting the migration of organic hole transport materials to the light-absorbing layer during device operation, improving molecular stability, and greatly improving the heat resistance stability, long-term stability and other performance of perovskite solar cell devices.

[0016] (4) The organic hole transport material of the present invention has good solubility and film-forming properties, which has a significant impact on the microstructure and hole transport capability of the buried interface of the perovskite layer, and is conducive to the formation of high-quality perovskite thin films with reduced surface defects and improved interface contact.

[0017] (5) Furthermore, when unsaturated groups such as alkenyl, alkynyl, and especially ethylene end groups are introduced into the substituted phenyl groups in organic hole transport materials, the in-situ thermally crosslinked SAMs layer can effectively suppress nonradiative recombination at the interface and reduce interfacial energy loss. When halogens such as F are introduced into the substituted phenyl groups simultaneously, the hydrophobicity and the affinity of the perovskite precursor solution can be enhanced synergistically. Based on this, the inverted conventional bandgap perovskite solar cell of this type of organic hole transport material can achieve a high photoelectric conversion efficiency of 23.64%, showing great application potential, and the long-term stability of the perovskite solar cell device is also significantly improved.

[0033] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0034] On the one hand, the present invention provides an organic hole transport material, the structural formula of which is shown in formula (I):

[0035]

[0036] In this case, R is independently selected from C. 2-6 alkenyl, C 2-6 alkynyl group, C 1-6 Alkyl or halogen, and at least one R is C 2-6 alkenyl, C 2-6 Alkyne or halogen; n is an integer from 1 to 4.

[0037] It should be noted that the organic hole transport material of the present invention uses carbazole (9H-carbazole) or conjugated extended dibenzo[c,g]carbazole (fused ring conjugated carbazole, 7H-dibenzo[c,g]carbazole) skeleton as the parent core, carboxyl group as anchoring group, and introduces R-substituted phenyl groups as shown in formula (I). The R-substituted phenyl groups can conjugate with the parent core to enhance the effect. Perovskite solar cells prepared using the organic hole transport material provided by the present invention have excellent performance and good long-term stability.

[0038] In one embodiment of the organic hole transport material of the present invention, the structural formula of the organic hole transport material is shown in formula (II) or formula (III) below:

[0039]

[0040] It should be noted that Formula (II) uses 9H-carbazole as the parent nucleus, and Formula (III) uses 7H-dibenzo[c,g]carbazole as the parent nucleus, with R-substituted phenyl introduced symmetrically. Compounds with such structures can improve the performance of the prepared perovskite solar cells as organic hole transport materials, especially improving the long-term stability of the devices.

[0042] It should be noted that when R is a halogen, such as F, it can improve the hydrophobicity of the organic hole transport material and its affinity for the perovskite precursor solution, which is beneficial to improving the long-term stability of the fabricated device and enabling the device to maintain high photoelectric conversion efficiency and other performance characteristics for a longer period of time; when R is C... 2-4 alkenyl or C 2-4 When the alkynyl group is terminal vinyl, the terminal vinyl group can be thermally crosslinked.

[0043] In the first embodiment of the organic hole transport material of the present invention, the organic hole transport material is selected from the following structural formula:

[0044]

[0045] It should be noted that in this embodiment where n is 1, under the premise of controlling the core structure and R selected from the substituents as described above, the substitution position of R in the phenyl and the substitution position of R-substituted phenyl in the carbazole are cleverly controlled in combination.

Furthermore, the organic hole transport material can be cross-linked in situ during high-temperature annealing, which significantly improves the stability, photoelectric conversion efficiency, and other performance of the device.

[0051] In the second embodiment of the organic hole transport material of the present invention, the organic hole transport material is selected from the following structural formula:

[0107] (3) Annealing is performed by heating at 100-120℃, preferably 110℃, for 8-15 minutes, such as 10 minutes, to obtain a hole transport layer; then, after depositing a perovskite thin film, annealing is performed, and an electron transport layer and a metal electrode are vapor-deposited; the electron transport layer preferably includes two layers, such as C60 and BCP.

[0108] The organic hole transport material of the present invention undergoes an annealing process at 100-120°C during the preparation of the hole transport layer. The unsaturated groups in the substituted phenyl groups of the organic hole transport material, such as alkenyl, alkynyl, and especially ethylene end groups, are functionalized by extending the alkenyl group through host conjugation. In-situ crosslinking can be achieved through heat treatment (such as annealing), which effectively inhibits the migration of the organic hole transport material to the light-absorbing layer during device operation, improves molecular stability, and greatly enhances the thermal stability, long-term stability, and other performance of perovskite solar cell devices. The device can maintain high photoelectric conversion efficiency for a longer period of time.

[0109] The present invention will be further described in detail below through examples, but these examples are not intended to limit the invention. In the following examples, unless otherwise specified, the experimental instruments and raw materials involved are all commercially available products.

[0166] Test Example 1

[0167] The optical properties of the compounds HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1, FCB-OH synthesized in Example 3, and the commercial compound MeO-2PACz were tested by ultraviolet-visible transmission spectroscopy. The obtained ultraviolet-visible transmission comparison spectra are shown below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0169]

[0170] Figure 1 Ultraviolet-visible transmission spectroscopy shows that the transmittance of the hole transport material FCB-OH is improved by introducing F-substituted phenyl groups onto carbazole. In particular, after introducing F atoms and vinyl-substituted phenyl groups, the carbazole-based hole transport material HFCB-OH exhibits higher transmittance across the entire wavelength range, which can be well matched with the perovskite absorption layer, thus facilitating hole extraction and transport.

[0171] Application Example 1

[0172] <Preparation of Battery Devices>

[0173] Organic-inorganic lead halide perovskite solar cells were prepared using the following compounds as hole transport materials: HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1, HCB-OH synthesized in Example 2, FCB-OH synthesized in Example 3, 3,6HCB-OH synthesized in Example 4, HDB-OH synthesized in Example 5, and the commercial compound MeO-2PACz.

[0174] Specifically, the battery manufacturing process is as follows:

[0175] The ITO glass substrate was cleaned for 15 min with glass cleaning solution, deionized water, acetone, and isopropanol, and then dried with dry compressed air. The cleaned ITO glass was then treated with ultraviolet ozone for 15 min to improve wettability. A hole transport material was mixed with isopropanol to prepare a concentration of 0.5 mg / mL, and spin-coated onto the ITO substrate at 5000 rpm for 30 s to prepare a hole transport layer. The substrate was then transferred to a glove box and heated at 110°C for 10 min. The perovskite solution was stirred overnight in the glove box, filtered through 0.22 μm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and a perovskite film was deposited in the glove box using ethyl acetate as the antisolvent. After annealing, C60, BCP, and Ag electrodes were sequentially thermally vapor-deposited. The hole transport layer thickness was 5 nm, the perovskite material layer thickness was 500 nm, the C60 thickness was 30 nm, the BCP thickness was 6 nm, and the Ag electrode thickness was 80 nm.

[0176] The structure of the fabricated perovskite solar cell is as follows: Figure 8 As shown:

[0178] Characterization of Battery Devices

[0179] The conventional bandgap perovskite solar cell devices prepared using the compounds synthesized in Examples 1-5 and MeO-2PACz as hole transport materials were characterized:

[0180] Using a xenon lamp solar simulator, the light source intensity was tested at AM 1.5G (100mW cm⁻¹). -2 ), for the open-circuit voltage V of the battery device. oc Short-circuit current J sc The fill factor (FF) was tested; battery performance was tested using a Keithley 2400 current-voltage source, and the resulting current-voltage (JV) characteristic curves are shown below. Figure 2-7 .

[0181] like Figure 7 As shown, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the reference device using the commercial compound MeO-2PACz as a hole transport material is only 22.03%. Under the same conditions, Figure 4The test results for the perovskite solar cell based on the compound FCB-OH synthesized in Example 3 as a hole transport material show a photoelectric conversion efficiency of 23.02%, indicating that the hole transport material with F atoms introduced by carbazole to replace phenyl atoms can improve the performance of the prepared perovskite solar cell. Figure 2 The open-circuit voltage V is the test result of a perovskite solar cell based on the compound HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1 as a hole transport material. oc The voltage is 1.13V, and the short-circuit current is J. sc 25.12 mA / cm 2 The fill factor (FF) was 83.38%, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency was 23.64%. Using the compound HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1 as the hole transport material, the phenyl substituent on the carbazole introduced both F atoms and vinyl groups. The cross-linked self-assembled hole transport material HFCB-OH plays a crucial role in improving the performance of perovskite solar cells after cross-linking, resulting in superior overall performance, with not only high photoelectric conversion efficiency but also good long-term stability. The compounds synthesized in the other examples were used to prepare hole transport layers, and the resulting solar cells also exhibited high photoelectric conversion efficiency and good long-term stability.

[0182] Test Example 2

[0183] <Contact Angle Test>

[0184] Hole transport layers with a thickness of 5-10 nm were prepared on ITO glass using the compounds HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1, FCB-OH synthesized in Example 3, and the commercial compound MeO-2PACz as hole transport materials.

[0185] The preparation process was as follows: The ITO glass substrate was cleaned for 15 minutes with glass cleaning solution, deionized water, acetone, and isopropanol, and then dried with compressed air. The cleaned ITO glass was then treated with ultraviolet ozone for 15 minutes to improve wettability. Hole transport material was mixed with isopropanol to a concentration of 0.5 mg / mL, and then spin-coated onto the ITO substrate at 5000 rpm for 30 seconds. The substrate was then transferred to a glove box and heated at 110°C for 10 minutes to prepare the hole transport layer, yielding the test sample.

[0186] Then, the contact angle between the hole transport layer and water, and between the hole transport layer and the perovskite precursor Cs were measured. 0.07 FA 0.9 MA 0.03 Pb(I 0.92 Br 0.08 The contact angle of the solution (concentration of 1M) was measured, and the test results are shown in [the table below]. Figure 9 As shown.

[0187] The contact angles of three self-assembled hole transport layers on ITO glass with water and perovskite precursor solutions were tested. FCB-OH showed a contact angle of 85.7° with water and 20.6° with the perovskite precursor solution, exhibiting better hydrophobicity and affinity for the perovskite precursor solution compared to commercial MeO-2PACz. HFCB-OH showed a contact angle of 89.1° with water and 13.9° with the perovskite precursor solution; compared to FCB-OH and commercial MeO-2PACz under the same conditions, it exhibited better hydrophobicity and affinity for the perovskite precursor solution. This characteristic is more conducive to the fabrication of large-size perovskite crystals and improved device stability.

[0189] The stability of perovskite crystals prepared on the three self-assembled hole transport layers (HFCB-OH, FCB-OH, and MeO-2PACz) was characterized. Specifically, hole transport layers and perovskite films were sequentially prepared on ITO glass using the same method as in Application Example 1, and then X-ray diffraction analysis was performed on the perovskite crystals in the perovskite film to obtain... Figure 10 The "As prepared" diffraction line in the image shows the X-ray diffraction results after being encapsulated and heated at 100°C for one week in a nitrogen atmosphere. Figure 10 The "1-week" diffraction line in the image.

[0190] Figure 10 X-ray diffraction (as prepared) shows that the perovskite crystal prepared on the HFCB-OH hole transport layer in the newly prepared crystal exhibits a stronger perovskite diffraction signal. X-ray diffraction (1 week) under a nitrogen atmosphere with encapsulation and continuous heating at 100°C clearly shows severe perovskite degradation in commercially available MeO-2PACz. The compounds FCB-OH synthesized in Example 3 and HFCB-OH synthesized in Example 1, when used as perovskites on the hole transport layer, exhibit good stability. Perovskite solar cell devices with better perovskite stability show better long-term stability.

[0191] Furthermore, using the same testing method, hole transport layers were prepared based on compounds HCB-OH synthesized in Example 2, 3,6HCB-OH synthesized in Example 4, and HDB-OH synthesized in Example 5. Perovskite thin films were then deposited on these hole transport layers. X-ray diffraction results of the newly prepared perovskite crystals showed that the perovskite crystals on the hole transport layers formed by the compounds prepared in these examples exhibited stronger perovskite diffraction signals. In particular, after continuous heating for one week, the perovskite showed good stability. Therefore, the long-term stability of perovskite solar cell devices obtained by using the compounds synthesized in the embodiments of this invention as hole transport layers can be significantly improved.

[0192] The present application has been described above with reference to preferred embodiments; however, these embodiments are merely exemplary and illustrative. Various substitutions and modifications can be made to the present application based on these embodiments, all of which fall within the protection scope of the present application.
