Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of optoelectronic materials and devices, and relates to a full-perovskite tandem solar cell and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The large-scale exploitation and utilization of fossil energy is intensifying global climate change, and developing clean energy has become the consensus of the whole society. In recent years, major economies have formulated strategies to vigorously develop solar, wind, water and tidal energy and other new types of renewable energy sources, and the total proportion of clean energy is continuously increasing. Solar energy is a clean energy with huge reserves, with about 800,000 kilowatts of solar energy reaching the earth every second, and the solar energy reaching the earth in a year is equivalent to the energy released by burning 13 trillion tons of standard coal. If 0.013% of the solar energy can be completely converted and utilized, it can meet the needs of the current production and life of mankind. The existing crystalline silicon solar cells have achieved large-scale application, but their photoelectric conversion efficiency is approaching the limit of industrialization. Therefore, developing new photovoltaic technologies with higher efficiency, breaking through the limit of traditional crystalline silicon cells, and further reducing the cost of photovoltaic power generation and land occupation have become the key to solar cell research. Building a tandem solar cell is an effective way to greatly improve the efficiency of solar cells. The theoretical efficiency of a double-junction tandem cell can be more than 42%, much higher than the S-Q limit of 33% for a single-junction cell. Although traditional III-V semiconductor tandem cells have achieved high efficiency, the preparation process is complex and the cost is high, which cannot achieve low-cost power generation. Perovskite solar cells are attracting attention and developing rapidly due to their low cost, easy preparation, and excellent optoelectronic performance. The cell conversion efficiency has increased from 3.8% in 2009 to 25.7% in 2022, and is considered to be the next generation of low-cost high-efficiency photovoltaic technology with the most application prospects. The perovskite / perovskite (or "full perovskite") tandem solar cell constructed by interconnecting wide and narrow bandgap perovskite subcells has the outstanding advantages of high efficiency and low cost, and is the next generation of high-efficiency, low-cost photovoltaic technology.

[0003] Tandem perovskite-based cells are usually composed of a wide bandgap (WBG ~ 1.7-1.8 eV) perovskite and a low bandgap (NBG). The bottom cell collects low-energy photons, such as c-Si, copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS), and hybrid tin (Sn) lead (Pb) perovskite, which has attracted considerable interest. So far, certified PCEs of 29.8%, 24.2%, and 26.4% have been achieved for perovskite / Si, perovskite / CIGS, and perovskite / perovskite TSCs, respectively, providing great prospects. However, the PCEs of perovskite-based TSCs are still far below their theoretical efficiency limits, mainly due to the presence of defects in the bulk and surface of Br-rich perovskite absorbers, resulting in poor performance of WBG PSCs, generating a large open-circuit voltage (Voc) loss.OC )loss (defined as E g / q-V OC , where q is the elementary charge). In addition, light-induced (I)-(Br) phase separation also impairs the stability of WBG perovskites, resulting in an undesirable stability of the tandem perovskite solar cells.

[0004] WBGPSC still suffers from severe open-circuit voltage loss and instability. The high open voltage loss is attributed to high defect density and light-induced phase separation. The polycrystalline perovskite films prepared by the solution method have many defects at the grain boundaries, surfaces and perovskite bodies, which will cause strong non-radiative recombination. Non-radiative recombination reduces the steady-state charge density, reduces the splitting of the quasi-Fermi level, and ultimately leads to relatively large open voltage loss. In addition, surface defects at the grain boundaries provide channels for water intrusion and ion migration, resulting in adverse stability. In view of the above problems, researchers improve the quality of WBG perovskite films, passivate surface defects, optimize the energy level arrangement, greatly reduce VOC loss and WBG performance through composition engineering, additive engineering and interface engineering and other methods. Based on this, the team carried out a series of researches, aiming to find a more effective method to solve these problems. SUMMARY

A passivation agent solution was added, and PEACl, PACl or CF3-PACl was added to the precursor solution at an optimal concentration, wherein the concentration of the introduced additive with respect to the b-site metal cation was less than 0.4 mol%, which was lower than the concentration of the large a-site cation required to form a 2D / 3D heterostructure. The precursor solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane to prepare a perovskite thin film. The weighing, stirring and storage processes were all carried out in a glove box.

[0116] Step 4: 10 mg of PCBM was dissolved in 1 mL of chlorobenzene solution, and the solution was stirred at room temperature at 400 rpm for 3 hours, and then stood for more than 4 hours.

[0117] Step 5: The ITO conductive glass cleaned in step 1 was treated in an ultraviolet ozone environment for 15 minutes.

[0118] Step 6: 20 μL of hole transport layer precursor solution (P3CT solution) was dropped onto the ITO conductive glass treated in step 4, and a spin coater was used to spin-coat a film at a speed of 4000 rpm for 30 seconds.

[0121] Step 9: Deposit tin oxide as an interconnect layer using atomic layer deposition (ALD). First, transfer the sample to the equipment, set the tin source to 55°C, and after the pressure stabilizes, set the deposition cycle to 300, corresponding to a thickness of 30 nanometers. After deposition is complete, turn off the tin source and remove the sample when the pressure is atmospheric pressure. Then, deposit a 1-nanometer-thick layer of metallic gold on the tin oxide as a composite layer for later use.

[0122] Step 10: In an air environment, spin coat PEDOT:PSS onto the composite layer at a speed of 4000 rpm for 30 seconds.

[0123] Step 11: Place the substrate with the PEDOT:PSS second hole transport layer deposited in Step 10 onto a spin coater. Add 200 μL of narrow bandgap perovskite precursor to the side of the PEDOT:PSS second hole transport layer opposite to the tin oxide interconnect layer, performing the first spin coat. Then perform the second spin coat. 20 seconds before the end of the second spin coat, add 300 μL of EA as an antisolvent to the side of the PEDOT:PSS second hole transport layer opposite to the tin oxide interconnect layer, transforming the narrow bandgap perovskite into an intermediate phase.

[0127] Summary: Through the above examples, the 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide is used to modify the upper interface of the wide-bandgap perovskite and regulate the concentration of the electron transport layer PCBM of the wide-bandgap perovskite to prepare a full perovskite tandem solar cell with excellent performance. Figure 1 It can be seen that by adjusting the wide-bandgap perovskite Cs x MA 1-x PbI 2.4 Br 0.6 The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum (UV-vis) of the component X=0.3, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, the band gap is about 1.77eV when X is 0.6, which is suitable for the bottom wide-bandgap perovskite of the full perovskite tandem solar cell. This can be confirmed in Example 1. Through Figure 3 It can be seen that the device performance after the wide-bandgap perovskite is passivated by 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide is much higher than that of the standard piece without passivation, especially the open voltage is significantly improved. In addition, through Figure 5a , b also confirms that the contact angle after interface passivation is larger, and the increased contact angle indicates that this interface passivation can effectively improve the film stability and prevent water and oxygen corrosion. Example 5 is the best example, that is, when the 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide is used to modify the upper interface of the wide-bandgap perovskite and 10mg / mL PCBM is used as the electron transport layer of the bottom cell, the performance of the device prepared is the best.

[0128] The method for preparing a full perovskite tandem solar cell based on ion liquid wide-bandgap crystallization regulation engineering of the application has the following beneficial effects:

[0129] 1. The method for modifying the upper interface of the wide-bandgap perovskite using 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide reduces the defect density, reduces non-radiative recombination, forms a two-dimensional perovskite phase, the contact angle is significantly increased, the hydrophobicity and water stability of the device are improved, the loss of open voltage is greatly reduced, and the performance of the device is improved.

[0130] 2. There are some Pb-I anti-site deep level defects in the grain boundary of perovskite. The introduction of PCBM in the wide band gap perovskite solar cell can enhance the charge transport before Pb-I, so as to change the energy band structure and improve the transport of carriers. In addition, the roughness of the surface of the ionic liquid perovskite is large, which is not conducive to the interface contact. The solvent chlorobenzene of PCBM can flush the surface of the film to reduce the roughness, and PCBM acts as a supplement to improve the interface contact.

[0131] 3. A dense SnO2 layer is prepared by atomic layer deposition to replace ITO. The dense SnO2 well blocks the damage of the solvent to the wide band gap top cell (narrow band gap sub-cell preparation process); then, the construction of a high-efficiency composite layer is realized by introducing Au nanoclusters.

[0132] 4. The preparation of two sub-cell perovskites is suitable for large-area preparation and is conducive to the commercialization process.

[0133] Comparative Example 1

[0134] The preparation method of the ionic liquid-based wide band gap perovskite solar cell of the present example is basically the same as that of Example 3, and the difference from Example 3 is that the concentration of 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide is different. The specific performance parameters are shown in Table 1. The thickness corresponding to the different interface passivation concentrations will also be different. The passivation layer should be thin enough to allow the charge to pass through, increase the number of carriers, and improve the performance. According to Table 1, it can be seen that the optimal concentration of 4-fluorophenethyl amine iodide is 2 mg / mL, and the device performance reaches the best.

And adjust the concentration of PCBM in the wide band gap perovskite solar cell. The specific performance parameters are shown in Table 2. According to Table 2, it can be seen that when the PCBM concentration is 10 mg / mL, the device performance reaches the best, and the highest efficiency can reach 24.2%.
