[0032] During the preparation of the most important perovskite light-absorbing layer in PSCs, excess BX2 (such as PbI2) is usually added to promote the crystallization of perovskite. However, these residual PbI2 will cluster at the grain boundaries of the perovskite during the perovskite annealing process and easily decompose into metallic Pb and I2 when the battery is illuminated, thereby inducing perovskite degradation and affecting the performance and stability of the battery.

[0033] An embodiment of the present application provides a perovskite solar cell, comprising a first electrode, a perovskite light absorbing layer, and a second electrode stacked in sequence, the perovskite solar cell also comprising a passivation layer, the passivation layer being arranged on at least one side of the two surfaces of the perovskite light absorbing layer facing the first electrode and the second electrode, the passivation layer comprising polymethyl acrylate.

[0034] A passivation layer is provided on at least one of the two surfaces of the perovskite light absorbing layer facing the first electrode and the second electrode, and the passivation layer contains polymethyl acrylate, which effectively reduces the defect density on the surface of the perovskite light absorbing layer and inhibits non-radiative recombination; and polymethyl acrylate can form hydrogen bonds with the perovskite light absorbing layer at the grain boundaries, which can effectively reduce the grain boundary density on the surface of the perovskite light absorbing layer and improve the crystallinity of the perovskite light absorbing layer; at the same time, polymethyl acrylate can interact with the residual BX2 on the surface of the perovskite light absorbing layer to inhibit the decomposition of BX2; the multi-faceted interactions effectively improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability performance of the battery.

[0035] The structural formula of polymethyl acrylate is as follows:

[0036]

[0037] It can be understood that the polymethyl acrylate chain has good flexibility and can choose a certain angle by itself, thereby increasing the possibility of coordination with BX2, forming NH···O hydrogen bonds with perovskite at the grain boundary, regulating the growth of perovskite, and reducing the grain boundary density.

[0038] However, the study found that when polymethyl methacrylate is used as the passivation material in the passivation layer, the improvement of the photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells is limited. Analysis shows that it is because of the steric hindrance of C=O that it cannot form coordination with PbI2; the structure of polymethyl methacrylate is as follows:

[0039]

[0040] The study also found that when polyacrylic acid is used as the passivation material in the passivation layer, due to its acidity, it adsorbs water and affects the stability of the perovskite film.

[0041] Among them, the structure of polyacrylic acid is as follows:

[0042]

[0043] In some of the examples, in the perovskite solar cell, the perovskite solar cell also includes at least one of a first carrier transport layer and a second carrier transport layer, the first carrier transport layer is located between the first electrode and the perovskite light absorbing layer, the second carrier transport layer is located between the perovskite light absorbing layer and the second electrode, the passivation layer is closely arranged with the perovskite light absorbing layer, one of the first carrier transport layer and the second carrier transport layer is an electron transport layer, and the other is a hole transport layer.

[0045] The passivation layer is set between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electron transport layer. The large amount of C=O in polymethyl acrylate will shift the Fermi level of the perovskite upward, increase the N-type semiconductor capacity, make the surface perovskite N-type, and improve the transmission and extraction efficiency of electrons.

[0046] The passivation layer is set between the hole transport layer and the perovskite light absorption layer. The bottom perovskite is N-type, and the energy level matching between it and the hole transport layer is poor, which affects the transmission and extraction of carriers.

[0047] In some of these examples, the number average molecular weight of polymethyl acrylate in perovskite solar cells is 30,000~50,000.

[0156] The single-junction perovskite solar cells and stacked cells prepared in each embodiment and comparative example were subjected to performance tests of open circuit voltage, short circuit current density, fill factor and energy conversion efficiency. The test conditions were: AM 1.5G standard solar spectrum, irradiance of 1000W / m 2 The experimental test results of single-junction perovskite solar cells are shown in Table 1, and the experimental test results of tandem cells are shown in Table 2.

[0157] Table 1

[0158]

[0159] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with Comparative Example 1, the photoelectric conversion efficiency PCE of each embodiment is higher; wherein, compared with the solvent chlorobenzene used in the passivation solution of Example 2 and the solvent anisole used in the passivation solution of Example 3, the solvent ethyl acetate used in the passivation solution of Example 1 has better solubility for polymethyl acrylate, so that the Jsc, Voc and FF of Example 1 are all improved; compared with the concentration of polymethyl acrylate in the passivation solution of Examples 3 to 5, the concentration used in Example 1 is more conducive to a better passivation effect, while avoiding affecting the transmission and extraction of carriers. Compared with Example 7, Example 1 sets the passivation layer between the perovskite light absorption layer and the electron transport layer, and the large amount of C=O contained in the polymethyl acrylate will cause the Fermi level of the perovskite to move up, increase the N-type semiconductor capacity, make the surface perovskite present N-type, and improve the transmission and extraction efficiency of electrons. Compared with Example 1, the battery performance of Comparative Examples 2 to 3 has a significant decline.

[0160] Table 2

[0161]

[0162] It can be seen from Table 2 that compared with Comparative Example 11, the photoelectric conversion efficiency PCE of each embodiment is higher; among them, compared with the solvent chlorobenzene used in the passivation solution of Example 12 and the solvent anisole used in the passivation solution of Example 13, the solvent ethyl acetate used in the passivation solution of Example 11 has better solubility for polymethyl acrylate, so that the Jsc, Voc and FF of Example 11 are all improved; compared with the concentration of polymethyl acrylate in the passivation solutions of Examples 13 to 15, the concentration used in Example 11 is more conducive to better passivation while avoiding affecting the transmission and extraction of carriers.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 It is shown that polyethyl acrylate as a passivation layer has a significant effect on improving the performance of single-junction perovskite solar cells and tandem solar cells, and exhibits good repeatability.

[0164] Figure 3The photoelectric performance stability diagram of the perovskite solar cell of Example 11 and Comparative Example 11 (conditions: 1 sun intensity, N2 storage). The device of Example 11 can still maintain more than 80% of the initial efficiency after 240 hours of illumination, while Comparative Example 11 shows a significant decline. This is due to the interaction between polyethyl acrylate and PbI2, which inhibits the decomposition of PbI2 under light and induces perovskite degradation.
