Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of optoelectronic materials and devices technology, and specifically relates to a method for synthesizing organic multifunctional molecules to control perovskite crystallization kinetics for use in high-efficiency and stable solar cells. Background Technology

[0002] Perovskite solar cells, characterized by low cost, tunable bandgap, and high theoretical limit photoelectric conversion efficiency, are currently one of the hottest research topics. Inverted-structure perovskite solar cells have seen rapid development in photoelectric conversion efficiency, reaching a record-breaking certified value of 26.14%, thanks to the development of novel hole transport materials and the use of control strategies such as additive engineering and interface engineering, demonstrating their strong commercial investment and application potential. The preparation of high-quality perovskite thin films is crucial for obtaining devices with excellent photoelectric performance and stability. However, during the preparation of perovskite thin films, surface and grain boundary defects that dominate non-radiative recombination are easily formed. Therefore, controlling the growth and crystallization process of perovskite thin films to reduce perovskite surface or grain boundary defects is an effective strategy to improve the performance of perovskite solar cells.

[0003] Currently, various types of materials (inorganic salts, organic halide salts, small organic molecules, and polymers) have been used as precursor additives to regulate the crystallization and growth process of perovskite thin films, inhibit the formation of defects, or reduce defect density. Organic halide salts and inorganic salts are widely studied due to their effective passivation properties. It has been reported that long-chain alkyl ammonium halides readily convert the top three-dimensional perovskite layer into a two-dimensional perovskite layer, hindering interfacial carrier transport. Small-radius halide anions readily bind to the perovskite lattice, leading to octahedral distortion. Therefore, the use of organic halide salts and inorganic salts as precursor additives carries certain risks. Small organic molecules, with their more flexible structures and designable functional groups, can avoid these effects and may be more effective in passivating perovskite film defects. Theory and practice have shown that specific functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups can regulate the growth, crystallization, and surface defect passivation of perovskite thin films to varying degrees. Therefore, developing novel organic small molecule precursor additives with multiple functional groups and optimal spatial structures is crucial for obtaining high-quality perovskite thin films and high-performance perovskite solar cell devices.

[0004] Additive engineering plays a crucial role in achieving high-performance and stable high-quality light-absorbing layers for perovskite solar cells. Various functional groups in additives exert different regulatory effects on the perovskite layer. However, few additive molecules can synergistically achieve the dual functions of regulating crystallization and passivating defects. Summary of the Invention
