[0025] Below, the scheme of the present invention will be explained in conjunction with embodiment.It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the following examples are only used to illustrate the present invention and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of the present invention.In the embodiment, if specific technology or conditions are not indicated, the technology or conditions described in the literature in this area or the product instructions are used.The reagents or instruments used are not indicated by the manufacturer, and are all conventional products that can be obtained by commercial purchase.
[0026] The present invention provides a perovskite solar cell. Referring to FIG1 , the perovskite solar cell includes: a perovskite light absorbing layer 100, an electron transport layer 300, and a resistance reduction layer 200 located between the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300. Thus, the resistance reduction layer 200 can reduce the residual Schottky barrier at the interface between the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300, reduce the contact resistance between the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300, and improve the fill factor of the perovskite solar cell device. In addition, the resistance reduction layer 200 can also reduce interface defect states, reduce non-radiative recombination, and improve the efficiency and batch stability of the device.
[0027] For ease of understanding, the following briefly explains the principle by which the perovskite solar cell of the present application can achieve the above-mentioned beneficial effects:
[0028] As mentioned above, since the contact resistance between the various film layers of the battery affects the fill factor of the device, the performance of the battery cannot be fully improved and utilized. Although in the related art, this problem can be improved by preparing a passivation layer between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the hole transport layer. To be specific, in the related art, a passivation layer is prepared on the perovskite after the preparation is completed by a solution method, so that the interface contact quality is increased, the interface contact is tighter, the defect state is reduced, and the efficiency and stability of the device are improved to a certain extent. However, this method still needs to be heated in the preparation process to obtain the passivation layer. During the heating process, part of the passivation layer material may be decomposed by heat. This method has the problem of poor repeatability, which makes the batch stability of the device poor. The present application inserts a layer of material as a resistance-reducing layer between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electron transport layer. With the help of evaporation equipment, the thickness and density of the sulfide can be accurately controlled, and the batch stability of the device can be further improved while passivating the interface defect state and reducing non-radiative recombination. The material used in the resistance-reduction layer can optimize the interface between the electron transport layer and the perovskite light-absorbing layer, increasing the interfacial contact area, reducing interface defects, lowering the residual Schottky barrier between the electron transport layer and the perovskite light-absorbing layer, reducing contact resistance, and improving carrier transport. Furthermore, the resistance-reduction layer of a certain thickness can be formed through methods including, but not limited to, vapor deposition, allowing for controlled thickness and improved device reproducibility.
[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the resistance-reducing layer 200 includes at least one of a metal sulfide, a metalloid sulfide, and a sulfur-containing organic compound. As a result, the resistance-reducing layer 200 can effectively reduce the contact resistance between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300. Specifically, the sulfur in the resistance-reducing layer 200 can interact with the uncoordinated lead in the perovskite light-absorbing layer 100, forming a chemical bond between the sulfur and the lead, reducing interfacial defect states and lowering the contact resistance.
[0030] The metal sulfides include, but are not limited to, alkali metal sulfides, alkaline earth metal sulfides, and transition metal sulfides.
[0031] Metalloid sulfides are compounds formed by metalloids and sulfur. Metalloids have physical and chemical properties intermediate between those of metals and non-metals. Metalloids include boron, silicon, germanium, selenium, tellurium, polonium, arsenic, and antimony. Furthermore, metalloid sulfides include boron sulfide, silicon sulfide, germanium sulfide, selenium sulfide, tellurium sulfide, polonium sulfide, arsenic sulfide, and antimony sulfide.
[0032] Sulfur-containing organic compounds are organic compounds substituted with one, two, or more sulfur-containing functional groups. Specifically, sulfur-containing organic compounds are aliphatic hydrocarbon compounds or aromatic hydrocarbon compounds substituted with one, two, or more sulfhydryl groups (-SH) or sulfonic acid groups (-SO3H). For example, sulfur-containing compounds include, but are not limited to, butanesulfonic acid and benzenesulfonic acid.
[0033] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the resistance reduction layer 200 includes at least one of lithium sulfide, potassium sulfide, magnesium sulfide, arsenic sulfide, indium sulfide, manganese sulfide, and cobalt sulfide, thereby effectively improving the performance of the perovskite solar cell.
[0034] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 is less than or equal to 3 nm. This effectively reduces the contact resistance between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300, effectively improving the fill factor of the perovskite solar cell device. If the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 is too large, it will block the transmission of electrons and reduce the performance of the perovskite solar cell.
[0035] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 may be 1 to 3 nm, specifically 1 nm, 1.5 nm, 2 nm, 2.5 nm, or 3 nm. The resistance-reducing layer 200 having a thickness within the above range can be easily formed by methods including, but not limited to, evaporation. It will not be too thin to form a continuous film layer, nor will it be too thick to block carrier transport at the interface, increase contact resistance, or reduce fill factor.
[0036] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the perovskite solar cell further includes a back electrode layer 600, a transparent electrode layer 500, and a hole transport layer 400. Thus, the performance of the perovskite solar cell can be further improved.
[0037] According to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to FIG2 , the transparent electrode layer 500 is located on the side of the electron transport layer 300 away from the resistance reduction layer 200 ; the hole transport layer 400 is located on the side of the perovskite light absorption layer 100 away from the resistance reduction layer 200 ; and the back electrode layer 600 is located on the side of the hole transport layer 400 away from the perovskite light absorption layer 100 . Thus, the structure of the perovskite solar cell is a stacked arrangement: transparent electrode layer 500, electron transport layer 300, resistance reduction layer 200, perovskite light absorption layer 100, hole transport layer 400, back electrode layer 600, that is, the perovskite solar cell of the present invention can have a formal device structure. For a formal perovskite solar cell, the introduction of the resistance reduction layer 200 can not only reduce the interfacial contact resistance, but also increase its bonding strength with the lead in the perovskite precursor solution, improve the perovskite crystallization quality, and enhance the device stability. Specifically, the perovskite precursor solution contains uncoordinated lead, which can interact with the sulfur in the resistance reduction layer 200 to form a chemical bond between the sulfur and the lead, thereby having a greater bonding strength between the resistance reduction layer 200 and the perovskite light absorbing layer 100.
[0038] According to other embodiments of the present invention, with reference to FIG3 , the hole transport layer 400 is located on the side of the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 away from the resistance reduction layer 200; the transparent electrode layer 500 is located on the side of the hole transport layer 400 away from the perovskite light absorbing layer 100; and the back electrode layer 600 is located on the side of the electron transport layer 300 away from the resistance reduction layer 200. Thus, the structure of the perovskite solar cell is stacked: the transparent electrode layer 500, the hole transport layer 400, the perovskite light absorbing layer 100, the resistance reduction layer 200, the electron transport layer 300, and the back electrode layer 600, that is, the perovskite solar cell of the present invention can have an inverted device structure. For an inverted perovskite solar cell, the resistance reduction layer 200 can not only reduce the interfacial contact resistance, but the resistance reduction layer 200 can also act as a protective layer for the electron transport layer 300, preventing the migrating ions from directly contacting the back electrode layer 600, causing unnecessary ion migration, etc.
[0039] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the transparent electrode layer 500 includes at least one of FTO, ITO, AZO, BZO, and IZO.
[0040] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the chemical formula of the material forming the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 is ABX3 or A2CDX6, wherein A is a methylamino group (CH3NH3 + ), carboxamidino (HC(NH2)2+ ), cesium ions (Cs + ), rubidium ions (Rb + ), B is a divalent lead ion (Pb 2+ ), divalent tin ions (Sn 2+ ), C is a monovalent silver ion (Ag + ), D is a trivalent bismuth ion (Bi 3+ ), X is a chloride ion (Cl - ), bromide ion (Br - ), iodide ion (I - ) at least one.
[0041] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the band gap of the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 is 1.20-2.30 eV, for example, 1.20 eV, 1.30 eV, 1.40 eV, 1.50 eV, 1.60 eV, 1.70 eV, 1.80 eV, 1.90 eV, 2.00 eV, 2.10 eV, 2.20 eV, or 2.30 eV.
[0042] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 is 200-1000 nm, for example, 200 nm, 300 nm, 400 nm, 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm, 900 nm, or 1000 nm;
[0043] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the electron transport layer 300 includes [6,6]-phenyl C 61 Methyl butyrate (PC 61 BM), [6,6]-phenyl C 71 Methyl butyrate (PC 71 At least one of BM, fullerene C60 (C60), fullerene C70 (C70), tin dioxide (SnO2), and zinc oxide (ZnO). The materials forming the electron transport layer 300 are not limited to the above materials, but can also be derivatives of the above materials, or materials obtained by doping or passivation. These materials are electron transport layer materials that match the electronic energy levels of perovskite, ensuring electron transport while blocking hole migration. The sulfide insertion layer can reduce contact resistance and enhance carrier mobility.
[0044] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the hole transport layer 400 includes poly [bis (4-phenyl) (2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) amine] (PTAA), 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis [N,N-di (4-methoxyphenyl) amino] -9,9'-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD), poly-3 hexylthiophene (P3HT), triphenylamine with triptycene as the core (H101), 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene-methoxytriphenylamine (EDOT-OMeTPA), N- (4-anilino) carbazole-spirobifluorene (CzPAF-SBF), poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), poly (styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), polythiophene, nickel oxide (NiO x ), molybdenum oxide (MoO3), cuprous iodide (CuI), and cuprous oxide (CuO).
[0045] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material forming the back electrode layer 600 includes at least one of Ag, Cu, C, Au, Al, ITO, AZO, BZO, and IZO.
[0046] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the aforementioned perovskite solar cell, the method comprising: forming a resistance reduction layer 200 between the perovskite light absorbing layer 100 and the electron transport layer 300 by evaporation. Thus, this method has all the features and advantages of the perovskite solar cell described above, and will not be repeated here. In general, the perovskite solar cell device prepared by this method has a high fill factor. In addition, this method has the advantage of simple operation.
[0047] Technicians can precisely control the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 by adjusting the evaporation parameters, ensuring that the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 is less than or equal to 3 nm. Specifically, the density of the resistance-reducing layer 200 can be controlled by adjusting the evaporation rate. During evaporation, the thickness of the resistance-reducing layer 200 can be monitored in real time using an instrument. When the resistance-reducing layer 200 reaches the specified thickness, evaporation is stopped.
[0048] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the evaporation rate may be 0.005-0.03 A / s, for example 0.01 A / s. Thus, a resistance-reducing layer 200 having a dense structure may be obtained.
[0049] When forming the resistance-reducing layer 200 by evaporation, the initial 1 nm of evaporation is discarded because the rate is unstable at the beginning. Evaporation can be resumed after the rate stabilizes. Specifically, a shield can be placed at the beginning of evaporation. After 1 nm of evaporation has been completed, the shield can be opened. Once the desired thickness is reached, the shield can be replaced.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, when forming the resistance-reducing layer 200, after the evaporation is completed, the method further includes a step of evacuating the chamber, after which subsequent operations are performed. This evacuation can remove residual substances within the chamber. The evacuation time can be 20-40 minutes, for example, 30 minutes. This can result in a perovskite solar cell with superior performance.
[0051] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method includes: providing a transparent electrode layer 500; forming an electron transport layer 300 on one side of the transparent electrode layer 500; forming a resistance reduction layer 200 on a side of the electron transport layer 300 away from the transparent electrode layer 500; forming a perovskite light absorption layer 100 on a side of the resistance reduction layer 200 away from the electron transport layer 300; forming a hole transport layer 400 on a side of the perovskite light absorption layer 100 away from the resistance reduction layer 200; and forming a back electrode layer 600 on a side of the hole transport layer 400 away from the perovskite light absorption layer 100. Thus, a perovskite solar cell having a formal structure as shown in FIG. 2 can be prepared.
[0052] According to other embodiments of the present invention, the method includes: providing a transparent electrode layer 500; forming a hole transport layer 400 on one side of the transparent electrode layer 500; forming a perovskite light absorption layer 100 on a side of the hole transport layer 400 away from the transparent electrode layer 500; forming a resistance reduction layer 200 on a side of the perovskite light absorption layer 100 away from the hole transport layer 400; forming an electron transport layer 300 on a side of the resistance reduction layer 200 away from the perovskite light absorption layer 100; and forming a back electrode layer 600 on a side of the electron transport layer 300 away from the resistance reduction layer 200. Thus, a perovskite solar cell with an inverted structure as shown in FIG. 3 can be prepared.

This device thus possesses all the features and advantages of the aforementioned perovskite solar cell, which are not further elaborated here.

[0054] Specifically, perovskite solar cells can be used as a power source for electrical devices, such as, but not limited to, electric vehicles, battery-powered vehicles, electric toys, and electric tools.

[0119] Table 1 Effects of different resistance reduction layer materials on device performance
[0120]
[0121] As can be seen from Table 1, the contact resistance of Example 1-11 is less than the contact resistance of Comparative Example 1, indicating that after a resistance reduction layer is provided between the perovskite light absorbing layer and the electron transport layer, the contact resistance can be reduced, the fill factor of the perovskite solar cell device can be improved, and the perovskite solar cell can be made to have more excellent performance. Moreover, the comprehensive performance of the battery of Example 1-9 is better than the comprehensive performance of the battery of Example 10-11, that is, compared with PCBM and lithium fluoride as the resistance reduction layer material, sulfide is used as the resistance reduction layer material, which can make the perovskite solar cell have more excellent performance. Moreover, in Example 1-9, the battery of Example 1-5 and Example 7 has more excellent comprehensive performance, that is, the material forming the resistance reduction layer is preferably lithium sulfide, potassium sulfide, magnesium sulfide, indium sulfide, and the contact resistance of the prepared perovskite solar cell is lower at this time, and the perovskite solar cell has more excellent comprehensive performance.
