Description

[0002] In today's new energy field, solar cell technology has become a research hotspot in the field of new energy because it can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy and effectively meet the needs of sustainable development of environmental energy. Among them, perovskite solar cells have excellent optoelectronic properties such as high light absorption coefficient, low exciton binding energy, and high carrier mobility. In particular, the photoelectric conversion efficiency has achieved a breakthrough from 3.8% to 26.41%, almost close to the highest value of single-crystal silicon efficiency of 26.81%. In perovskite solar cells, the electron transport layer (ETL) has two major functions: electron extraction and transmission and hole blocking. It plays a pivotal role in the overall photovoltaic performance of the device. However, the large number of oxygen vacancies and surface dangling bonds on the surface and other grain boundaries and surface defects will seriously affect the charge transfer, especially causing the open circuit voltage of perovskite solar cells to decrease and fill factor loss, and also leading to insufficient stability of perovskite solar cells, causing serious loss of their optoelectronic performance until it disappears. In addition, defects at the bottom interface of the perovskite layer (PVK) will also lead to unnecessary non-radiative recombination losses, further damaging the performance of solar cells. Therefore, a simple and effective surface regulation method is urgently needed to minimize the defects at the buried interface of perovskite solar cells (i.e., between the perovskite layer (PVK) and the underlying electron transport layer (ETL)) to improve charge transfer and stability, thereby significantly improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells.

[0038] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0040] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides an isothiourea hydrochloride-modified perovskite solar cell, comprising a conductive substrate 1, an electron transport layer 2, a perovskite layer 4, a hole transport layer 5 and an electrode layer 6 arranged in sequence from bottom to top, a buried interface modification layer 3 is provided between the electron transport layer 2 and the perovskite layer 4, and the buried interface modification layer 3 is modified by isothiourea hydrochloride.

[0041] Specifically, the present invention utilizes multiple effective functional groups in isothiourea hydrochloride, which can, on the one hand, passivate oxygen vacancies on the surface of the electron transport layer 2 and reduce surface dangling bonds, while optimizing the energy level matching between the electron transport layer 2 and the perovskite layer 4, suppressing non-radiative recombination at the interface, reducing the energy level barrier, and making the transfer and extraction of electrons more efficient; on the other hand, the buried interface modification layer 3 can improve the hydrophilicity of the interface of the electron transport layer 2, which is beneficial to the deposition and growth of the perovskite film, thereby regulating the perovskite crystallization process, increasing the perovskite grain size and making the grain size distribution more uniform, and effectively improving the poor interface contact problem between the electron transport layer 2 and the perovskite layer 4; at the same time, high-quality perovskite films can effectively passivate perovskite defects and improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite cells.

[0106] As attached Figure 8 As shown, the normalized efficiency-time variation curves of the embodiments and comparative examples were obtained, wherein embodiment 1 can still maintain a normalized efficiency of 91% after 500 hours, embodiment 2 can still maintain a normalized efficiency of 89% after 500 hours, and the normalized efficiency of comparative example 1 is reduced to 70% after 500 hours, which indicates that the buried interface modification layer modified with isothiourea hydrochloride can greatly improve the stability of perovskite solar cells.

[0107] In summary, it can be seen from the comparative examples and the results of each embodiment that the present invention provides a buried interface modification layer between the electron transport layer and the perovskite layer, and the buried interface modification layer is modified by isothiourea hydrochloride, and multiple effective functional groups in isothiourea hydrochloride are used to effectively passivate the interface, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of the perovskite layer are effectively improved, and the buried interface modification layer can improve the hydrophilicity of the electron transport layer interface, which is conducive to the deposition and growth of the perovskite film, thereby regulating the perovskite crystallization process, increasing the perovskite grain size and making the grain size distribution more uniform, and effectively improving the poor interface contact problem between the electron transport layer and the perovskite layer. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has significant progress.
