Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular to a perovskite precursor solution, a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof, a photovoltaic module, and a photovoltaic system. Background Art
[0002] At present, thanks to the excellent photoelectric properties of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites such as long carrier lifetime, high absorption coefficient, and good defect tolerance, the conversion efficiency of (single-junction) perovskite solar cells has reached more than 26% in just over a decade, and the efficiency of perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells has exceeded 33.9%, demonstrating the competitiveness of perovskite solar cells as the next generation of photovoltaic technology.
[0003] In the prior art, in order to improve the efficiency of perovskite solar cells, various bulk additives (such as Lewis base trans-ferulic acid) are added to the perovskite precursor to passivate the bulk defects of the perovskite film. Although the bulk additives can effectively passivate the defects of the perovskite, they cannot improve the stability of the precursor solution, resulting in the decrease in the preparation repeatability of the perovskite solar cell as the storage time of the precursor increases. Improving the stability of the precursor solution is crucial to improving the preparation repeatability of the perovskite film.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to study a perovskite precursor solution that can not only passivate the defects of perovskite, but also maintain the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution and increase the storage time of the perovskite precursor solution, thereby improving the repeatability of perovskite device preparation.

[0057] To facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application, the relevant technologies are described below:
[0058] The embodiment of the present application provides a perovskite precursor solution, including: a perovskite material, a composite additive and an organic solvent. The composite additive is acetic acid and potassium acetate, or potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and the organic solvent includes N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide. Among them, the composite additive and the metal ions in the perovskite precursor solution can coordinate with each other, and this coordination effect can reduce the defect state density in the perovskite film. At the same time, the composite additive is a conjugate acid-base pair, which can provide a buffering effect, thereby maintaining the pH value of the solution stable. At the same time, the composite additive can chelate metal ions to prevent metal ions from reacting with other substances. Therefore, the addition of the composite additive not only passivates the defects of the perovskite, but also maintains the stability of the perovskite precursor solution, improves the storage time of the perovskite precursor solution, and thus improves the repeatability of the preparation of perovskite devices. For details, please refer to the following.
[0059] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein.
[0060] The embodiment of the present application provides a titanium ore precursor solution, including: a perovskite material and a composite additive;
[0061] The perovskite material is an ABX3 structure; A is a monovalent cation, including cesium; B is a divalent cation, including lead; X is a monovalent anion, including iodine;
[0062] The composite additive is a mixture of acetic acid and potassium acetate; or a mixture of potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate.
[0063] The perovskite precursor solution of the embodiment of the present application includes a perovskite material and a composite additive. Among them, when the composite additive is acetic acid and potassium acetate, acetic acid as a weak acid can coordinate with Pb2+ in the perovskite material, control the nucleation rate, promote crystal growth, and improve the uniformity and grain size of the film. Potassium acetate can provide K+ ions, which can passivate defects and improve the stability of the film. When the composite additive is potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate, potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can both provide PO43- ions, which can react with Pb2+ to form a complex reaction and regulate the morphology and grain size of the perovskite film. Adding the above-mentioned composite additive in the embodiment of the present application not only passivates the defects of the perovskite, but also maintains the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution, improves the storage time of the perovskite precursor solution, and thus improves the repeatability of the preparation of perovskite devices.
[0064] In an optional embodiment, the molar concentration ratio of acetic acid to potassium acetate is 1:3-3:1; or the molar concentration ratio of potassium monohydrogen phosphate to potassium dihydrogen phosphate is 1:3-3:1. Exemplarily, the molar concentration ratio of acetic acid to potassium acetate is 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2.5:1.5 or 3:1; or the molar concentration ratio of potassium monohydrogen phosphate to potassium dihydrogen phosphate is 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2.5:1.5 or 3:1. In the perovskite precursor solution of this embodiment, acetic acid and potassium acetate / potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can act synergistically in the molar concentration range of 1:3-3:1, effectively passivating perovskite defects while maintaining the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution.
[0065] In an optional embodiment, the molar concentration ratio of the composite additive to the perovskite material is (0%, 10%]. Exemplarily, the molar concentration ratio of the composite additive to the perovskite material is 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%. In the present embodiment, the range of (0%, 10%] is an open interval of 0% to a closed interval of 10%. Experiments have shown that the molar concentration of the composite additive to the perovskite material within this range can effectively passivate perovskite defects while maintaining the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution.
[0066] In an optional embodiment, A includes a mixture of one or more monovalent cations selected from cesium, rubidium, methylamine, and guanidine; B also includes a mixture of one or more divalent cations selected from copper, zinc, gallium, tin, and calcium; and X also includes a mixture of one or more monovalent anions selected from bromine, chlorine, fluorine, and thiocyanate.
[0067] In an optional embodiment, the perovskite precursor solution also includes an organic solvent for dissolving the perovskite material and the composite additive, and the organic solvent includes one or more of N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile, 2-methoxyethanol, dimethylacetamide, and N,N'-dimethylpropylene urea. Among them, N,N-dimethylformamide has a high solubility, can dissolve the perovskite precursor material, and has a high boiling point, which can improve the film quality of the film. In addition, the organic solvent can also include dimethyl sulfoxide, which has a high polarity, can promote the dissolution of the perovskite precursor material, and has a low volatility, which can improve the compactness of the film. Among them, the proportion of the organic solvent needs to be adjusted according to the specific circumstances to obtain the best battery performance. It is necessary to pay attention to the toxicity and safety of the organic solvent and take necessary protective measures. The optional organic solvents in the embodiments of the present application all have the following characteristics: they can dissolve the perovskite precursor material, have good volatility or have a high boiling point to improve the film quality of the film, and have good compatibility with other materials.
[0068] The present application embodiment provides a perovskite solar cell. Figure 1 The perovskite solar cell includes a conductive substrate 11, a transparent conductive oxide layer 12, a hole transport layer 13, a perovskite light absorbing layer 14, an electron transport layer 15, and a back electrode 16 which are stacked in sequence;
[0069] The perovskite light absorbing layer 14 is prepared from a perovskite precursor solution according to any one of the above embodiments.
[0070] The perovskite solar cell in the embodiment of the present application includes a conductive substrate 11, a transparent conductive oxide layer 12, a hole transport layer 13, a perovskite light absorbing layer 14, an electron transport layer 15, and a back electrode 16. Among them, the conductive substrate 11 provides support for the battery and collects current, the transparent conductive oxide layer 12 improves the light transmittance and collection efficiency of the battery, the perovskite light absorbing layer 14 absorbs photons and generates electron-hole pairs, the hole transport layer 13 obtains holes in the perovskite light absorbing layer 14, the electron transport layer 15 obtains electrons in the perovskite light absorbing layer 14, and the back electrode 16 collects electrons and forms a loop. The above structure constitutes a relatively complete perovskite solar cell, wherein the perovskite light absorbing layer 14 is composed of a perovskite film, and the perovskite film is prepared from a perovskite precursor solution. In this embodiment, the composite additives acetic acid and potassium acetate (potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate) are added to the perovskite precursor solution, which not only passivates the defects of the perovskite, but also maintains the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution, improves the storage time of the perovskite precursor solution, and thus improves the repeatability of the preparation of perovskite devices.
[0071] In an optional embodiment, the molar concentration ratio of acetic acid to potassium acetate is 1:3-3:1; or the molar concentration ratio of potassium monohydrogen phosphate to potassium dihydrogen phosphate is 1:3-3:1. Exemplarily, the molar concentration ratio of acetic acid to potassium acetate is 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2.5:1.5 or 3:1; or the molar concentration ratio of potassium monohydrogen phosphate to potassium dihydrogen phosphate is 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2.5:1.5 or 3:1. In the perovskite precursor solution of this embodiment, acetic acid and potassium acetate / potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can act synergistically in the molar concentration range of 1:3-3:1, effectively passivating perovskite defects while maintaining the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution.
[0072] In an optional embodiment, the molar concentration ratio of the composite additive to the perovskite material is (0%, 10%], illustratively, the molar concentration ratio of the composite additive to the perovskite material is 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%. In the present embodiment, the range of (0%, 10%] is an open interval of 0% to a closed interval of 10%. Experiments have shown that the molar concentration of the composite additive to the perovskite material within this range can effectively passivate perovskite defects while maintaining the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution.
[0073] In an optional embodiment, the thickness of the perovskite light absorbing layer is 0.3 μm-1.4 μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the perovskite film is 0.3 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.7 μm, 0.9 μm, 1.1 μm or 1.4 μm.
[0074] If the thickness of the perovskite light-absorbing layer is too thin, the composite additives in the perovskite precursor solution will not be able to effectively penetrate and evenly distribute throughout the perovskite layer, resulting in a weakened pH stability effect. In addition, a thinner perovskite light-absorbing layer may produce too many grain boundary defects, thereby affecting the performance of perovskite solar cells. If the thickness of the perovskite light-absorbing layer is too thick, the composite additives may have difficulty in evenly penetrating the entire perovskite light-absorbing layer, which will cause pH fluctuations in local areas, thereby affecting the stability of the perovskite light-absorbing layer.
[0075] The thickness range of the perovskite light absorbing layer provided in the embodiment of the present application enables the composite additive to be evenly distributed throughout the perovskite light absorbing layer, thereby effectively passivating the perovskite crystal defects and maintaining the pH stability of the precursor solution. In addition, the thickness range of the perovskite light absorbing layer provided in the embodiment of the present application will effectively affect the absorption efficiency of the composite additive and the light absorption efficiency, carrier transmission efficiency, battery efficiency, etc. of the battery, and the specific value of the thickness can be adjusted according to the specific material and battery structure.
[0076] In an optional embodiment, the transparent conductive oxide layer 12 includes one or more of indium tin oxide, zinc oxide, and fluorine-doped tin oxide. In this embodiment, the selected materials have high light transmittance, ensuring the overall light transmittance of the optical device, low resistivity, good electrical conductivity, good chemical stability and thermal stability, and can maintain stable performance in the application environment.

In this embodiment, the materials selected for preparing the hole transport layer 13 have the following characteristics: good hole transport ability, good interface matching with the perovskite layer, high oxidation stability, and suitable energy level. Selecting a suitable hole transport layer material from the optional materials provided in this embodiment can enhance the stability of the device, improve the ability of the device to operate stably for a long time, and reduce the performance degradation of the device under environmental conditions such as light and humidity.
[0078] In an optional embodiment, the electron transport layer 15 includes one or more of SnO2, ZnO, ZrO2, fullerene, and fullerene derivatives. The optional materials of the electron transport layer 15 provided in this embodiment all have the following characteristics: high electron mobility, energy level matching with the perovskite light absorption layer 14, and good stability.

Selecting them as the components of the back electrode can reduce resistance and improve electron transmission efficiency, thereby enhancing the electrical performance of the solar cell device.
[0080] The present invention provides a method for preparing a perovskite solar cell. Figure 2 , the preparation method of the perovskite solar cell comprises:
[0081] S10: providing a conductive substrate;
[0082] S11: depositing a transparent conductive oxide layer on the surface of the conductive substrate;
[0083] S12: forming a hole transport layer on the surface of the transparent conductive oxide layer;
[0084] S13: forming a perovskite light absorption layer on the surface of the hole transport layer;
[0085] S14: forming an electron transport layer on the surface of the perovskite light absorbing layer;
[0086] S15: forming a back electrode on the surface of the electron transport layer;
[0087] Wherein, the perovskite light absorbing layer is prepared from a perovskite precursor solution according to any one of the above embodiments.
[0088] In this embodiment, a method for preparing a wide bandgap perovskite solar cell specifically includes the following steps:
[0089] (1) treating the ITO conductive substrate with UV ozone for 15 minutes;
[0090] (2) A 15 nm NiOx hole transport layer was prepared by magnetron sputtering, and NiOx was further modified by 2PACz;
[0091] (3) using CsI, FAI, PbI2, and PbBr2 to prepare a perovskite precursor solution with a composition of FA0.8Cs0.2PbI1.8Br1.2, the solvent is a mixed solution of DMF / DMSO, and acetic acid and potassium acetate buffer materials are added as additives;
[0092] (4) using a one-step anti-solvent method, anisole was used as an anti-solvent to prepare the perovskite film, and the annealing conditions were 120 °C for 20 min;
[0093] 5) a 15 nm thick C60 electron transport layer was deposited by thermal evaporation, and a 15 nm thick SnO2 barrier layer was prepared by atomic layer deposition;
[0094] (6) A 150 nm thick Ag back electrode was deposited by thermal evaporation.
[0095] In an optional embodiment, the method for forming a hole transport layer includes:
[0096] Nickel oxide is magnetron sputtered on the transparent conductive oxide on the surface of the conductive substrate, and the thickness of the nickel oxide is 5nm-20nm. Magnetron sputtering deposition technology refers to the use of high-energy ions to bombard nickel oxide targets under vacuum conditions, and the sputtered atoms are deposited on the transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer to form a nickel oxide film. The film prepared by the magnetron sputtering deposition technology in this embodiment has the advantages of uniform thickness, high crystallinity, and strong adhesion. In this embodiment, the thickness of nickel oxide will effectively affect the performance of the hole transport layer. A hole transport layer that is too thin cannot effectively extract holes, and a hole transport layer that is too thick will increase the series resistance of the battery. In this embodiment, 5nm-20nm is the optimal thickness range of the nickel oxide hole transport layer. Among them, the material used to form the hole transport layer is nickel oxide, because nickel oxide has good conductivity and hole transport ability, and can effectively extract holes from the perovskite light absorption layer.
[0097] In an optional embodiment, the forming of the perovskite light absorbing layer comprises:
[0098] Spin coating the precursor solution on the surface of the hole transport layer;

[0100] The spin-coated perovskite film is annealed.
[0101] In an optional embodiment, during the spin coating process, the rotation speed is 1000rpm-4000rpm. In this embodiment, the principle of spin coating is to drop the precursor solution onto a substrate rotating at a high speed, and spread the solution evenly by centrifugal force to form a thin film. The rotation speed provided in this embodiment can effectively control the film thickness, film uniformity and film morphology of the perovskite film.
[0102] In an optional embodiment, the anti-solvent includes one or more of anisole, chlorobenzene, and diethyl carbonate. In this embodiment, the anti-solvent is mixed with the solvent in the precursor solution to accelerate the volatilization rate of the solvent, thereby promoting the growth of perovskite crystals and controlling the morphology of the perovskite film.
[0103] In an optional embodiment, during the annealing process of forming the perovskite film, the temperature is 100°C-130°C, and the time is 10min-40min. Preferably, the temperature can be 100°C, 105°C, 110°C, 115°C, 120°C, 125°C, 130°C, and the time can be 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min. In this embodiment, the above annealing treatment can remove solvent residues, promote further growth of perovskite crystals, and improve the crystallinity and photoelectric properties of the perovskite film.
[0104] In an optional embodiment, the electron transport layer includes a fullerene layer and a barrier layer;
[0105] Wherein, the forming of the electron transport layer comprises:
[0106] After the fullerene layer is formed on the surface of the perovskite light absorbing layer, a barrier layer is formed on the side of the fullerene layer away from the perovskite light absorbing layer. In this embodiment, the electron transport layer includes but is not limited to C60, PCBM, and SnO2. Among them, the fullerene layer obtains electrons from the perovskite light absorbing layer, thereby improving the electron transport efficiency of the battery. The preparation method of the fullerene layer and the barrier layer may include solution deposition, magnetron sputtering, etc. The fullerene layer and the barrier layer together constitute the electron transport layer, and an energy level difference is formed between the two, which is conducive to the transmission of electrons from the perovskite light absorbing layer to the electron transport layer.
[0107] In an optional embodiment, the material of the barrier layer includes tin dioxide, and the thickness of the barrier layer is 10nm-20nm. For example, the thickness of the barrier layer is 10nm, 12nm, 14nm, 16nm, 18nm or 20nm. In this embodiment, the provision of the barrier layer can effectively promote the transmission of electrons from the fullerene layer to the back electrode, thereby increasing the open circuit voltage of the battery and helping to improve the performance and stability of the device.

[0141] In summary, the embodiment of the present application prepares a perovskite precursor solution using perovskite materials, acetic acid and potassium acetate (potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate) and organic solvents (N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide). Among them, N,N-dimethylformamide has a high solubility and can dissolve perovskite precursor materials, and has a high boiling point, which can improve the film quality of the film. The organic solvent also includes dimethyl sulfoxide, which has a high polarity and can promote the dissolution of perovskite precursor materials. It has low volatility and can improve the density of the film. The composite additives acetic acid and potassium acetate (potassium monohydrogen phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate) can passivate the defects of perovskite while maintaining the stability of the pH value of the perovskite precursor solution, thereby improving the storage time of the perovskite precursor solution and improving the repeatability of the preparation of perovskite devices.
[0142] The embodiment of the present application may also provide a photovoltaic module (not shown), including at least one battery string, the battery string includes at least two perovskite solar cells as described above, and adjacent perovskite solar cells can be connected together by series welding.
[0143] The embodiment of the present application can provide a photovoltaic system, including the photovoltaic components in any of the above embodiments. The advantages of the above photovoltaic components are also possessed by the photovoltaic system, which will not be repeated here. The above photovoltaic system has a wide range of applications, not only limited to photovoltaic power stations, such as ground power stations, rooftop power stations and water power stations, but also includes various equipment and devices that use solar energy to generate electricity, such as user solar power supplies, solar street lights, solar cars and solar buildings. Of course, it can be understood that the application scenarios of the photovoltaic system are not limited to this, that is to say, the photovoltaic system can be used in all fields where solar energy is required for power generation. Taking the photovoltaic power generation system network as an example, the photovoltaic system may include a photovoltaic array, a junction box and an inverter. The photovoltaic array may be an array combination of multiple photovoltaic components. For example, multiple photovoltaic components may form multiple photovoltaic arrays. The photovoltaic array is connected to a junction box. The junction box can converge the current generated by the photovoltaic array. The converged current flows through the inverter and is converted into the alternating current required by the mains power grid, and then connected to the mains network to realize solar power supply.
