Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of perovskite solar cell technology, and relates to the preparation of hole transport materials, particularly to a self-assembled monolayer hole transport material based on fused thiopheneindole, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as a rising star in next-generation photovoltaic technology due to their superior photovoltaic performance and low production cost. After a decade of rapid development, PSCs have achieved power conversion efficiencies exceeding 26%, approaching those of traditional crystalline silicon photovoltaics. Perovskite solar cells have two main structural types: forward-biased nip structures and reverse-biased pin structures. Compared to nip structures, pin structures are more suitable for fabricating large-area, tandem solar cells because they can utilize low-temperature processes and a wider variety of carrier extraction layers, offering greater commercial potential. However, pin structures also face a challenge: improving the interface quality and stability between the hole-selective layer and the perovskite. The prevalent crystal defects that mediate charge recombination remain a major limiting factor for further performance improvements. These defects are unavoidable, especially as perovskite fabrication scales up. Furthermore, these defects are widely reported to trigger localized charge accumulation and accelerate ion migration, leading to exacerbated hysteresis behavior. Therefore, developing high-performance, novel hole transport materials for reverse-biased devices is crucial for device performance.
[0003] Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have achieved breakthroughs in the efficiency and stability of perovskite devices with inverted single-junction and tandem configurations due to their unique and versatile ability to control chemical and physical interface properties. SAMs materials are characterized by simple structure and flexible design, enabling effective tuning of interface energy levels and reduction of defect states through molecular engineering. They also exhibit unique advantages such as low parasitic absorption, low material consumption, compatibility with tandem perovskite solar cells, and simplified fabrication of large-area devices, making them a popular choice for fabricating high-efficiency perovskite solar cells. Therefore, developing novel SAM materials with simple structure, low cost, and excellent performance is a key issue that urgently needs to be addressed to promote the industrialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs).
