Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells and relates to a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Although the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has reached 26.7%, exceeding many traditional thin-film solar technologies, it is difficult for perovskite solar cells to achieve long-term stability due to their fragile interfaces. Perovskites will degrade under the combined effects of various environmental factors (such as humidity, oxygen, temperature changes and light), thereby reducing the performance and life of the cell.

[0003] In inverse PSCs, deep traps are formed at the perovskite-hole blocking layer interface, leading to efficiency loss. 60 The high cost and poor mechanical properties of fullerene ETLs have prompted the search for alternatives.

[0004] However, potential alternatives, such as metal oxides, are difficult to be compatible with existing processes. The thermal stability of perovskites is also an issue that needs to be addressed, with high-temperature annealing usually used for optimal metal oxide processing.

[0005] CN117337057A discloses a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof, wherein the perovskite solar cell comprises: a first carrier transport layer; a perovskite light absorption layer, arranged on one side of the first carrier transport layer; a second carrier transport layer, arranged on the side of the perovskite light absorption layer away from the first carrier transport layer; and a top electrode, arranged on the side of the second carrier transport layer away from the perovskite light absorption layer, wherein the top electrode is a carbon electrode composited with a heat dissipation material.

[0006] CN118785732A discloses a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof. The perovskite solar cell comprises a conductive substrate, a hole transport layer, a perovskite light absorption layer, an interface passivation layer, an electron transport layer and an electrode which are arranged in sequence.

[0007] The above scheme directly prepares an electron transport layer or a hole blocking layer on the perovskite light-absorbing layer. Sputtering oxide will damage the perovskite surface, and even if an interface passivation layer is set, it is difficult to avoid this problem. Directly depositing a hole blocking layer on the perovskite will produce chemical reactions and interface barriers. The passivation layer cannot eliminate the interface barrier, and it will still cause the PCE of the device to be lower than the normal value. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof. The present invention adopts a method of setting an electron tunneling protection layer between the perovskite light absorbing layer and the hole blocking layer to block the damage to the perovskite during the process of depositing the buffer layer of the hole blocking layer, which greatly improves the stability of the battery. The electron tunneling protection layer does not affect the electron transmission, and there is no need to use C 60 Tin oxide and / or IZO, i.e. zinc-doped indium oxide, can be directly deposited, which greatly reduces the manufacturing cost and obtains a device with higher stability.

[0012] The hole blocking layer may be made of tin oxide and / or IZO.

[0013] The present invention sets an electron tunneling protection layer composed of aluminum oxide and / or molybdenum oxide between the perovskite light absorption layer and the hole blocking layer. The electron tunneling protection layer can be used as a buffer layer for the subsequent preparation of the hole blocking layer to avoid chemical reactions and interface barriers in the process of preparing the hole transport layer, which leads to the problem that the PCE of the device is far lower than the normal value. The electron tunneling protection layer also has the ability to separate carriers, which can also improve the performance of the device. The present invention uses tin oxide and / or IZO as a durable inorganic hole blocking layer instead of C 60 Fullerenes significantly reduce costs and improve the mechanical properties of batteries. At the same time, by setting up an electron tunneling protection layer, harmful chemical reactions and interface barriers between perovskite and the hole blocking layer are eliminated without hindering the normal transmission of electrons, which greatly improves the stability of perovskite components and has broad application prospects.

[0099] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that no electron tunneling protection layer is provided, and other conditions and parameters are exactly the same as those in Example 1.

[0100] Performance Testing:

[0101] The perovskite solar cells prepared in the embodiment and the comparative example are respectively connected in series to form a perovskite solar module. The number of perovskite solar cells in a single perovskite solar module is 41. A solar simulator and a digital source meter are used to characterize the current Isc, open circuit voltage Voc, fill factor FF, and photoelectric conversion efficiency Eff of the perovskite solar module. The characterization results are shown in Table 1:

[0102] Table 1

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] As can be seen from Table 1, from Examples 1-6, the short-circuit current of the perovskite solar cell of the present invention can reach more than 0.522A, the open-circuit voltage can reach more than 42.344V, the fill factor can reach more than 57.5%, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency can reach more than 14.702%. By adjusting the thickness of the electron tunneling protection layer and adding a passivation layer, the short-circuit current of the perovskite solar cell can reach more than 0.531A, the open-circuit voltage can reach more than 43.397V, the fill factor can reach more than 64%, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency can reach more than 16.434%.

[0106] By comparing Example 1 with Examples 4-5, it can be seen that in the perovskite solar cell described in the present invention, the thickness of the electron tunneling protection layer responds to its performance. When the thickness of the electron tunneling protection layer is controlled at 3 to 7 nm, the performance of the perovskite solar cell obtained is better. If the thickness of the electron tunneling protection layer is too large, it will block the transmission of electrons and cause excessive steric hindrance, reducing the FF from 64.3% in Example 1 to 57.5% in Example 5. If the thickness of the electron tunneling protection layer is too small, it cannot effectively isolate the chemical reaction of atomic layer deposition SnO2, causing the FF in Example 4 to be significantly reduced to 59.3%.

[0107] By comparing Example 1 with Example 6, it can be seen that in the perovskite solar cell of the present invention, the passivation layer can effectively reduce the defect state density on the surface of the perovskite and improve the V OC With FF.

[0108] The photoelectric conversion efficiency attenuation curves of the perovskite solar cells obtained in Example 1 of the present invention and Comparative Example 1 are as follows: Figure 2 As shown by Figure 2 It can be seen that the T80 life of comparative example 1 is 200h, while the T80 life of the device of embodiment 1 using Al2O3 electron tunneling protection layer to directly atomically deposit SnO2 can reach 1300h. It can be seen that after using Al2O3 electron tunneling protection layer to directly atomically deposit SnO2, the stability of the device has been greatly improved. The present invention sets an electron tunneling protection layer composed of aluminum oxide and / or molybdenum oxide materials between the perovskite light absorbing layer and the hole blocking layer. The electron tunneling protection layer can be used as a buffer layer for the subsequent preparation of the hole blocking layer to avoid chemical reactions and interface barriers in the process of preparing the hole transport layer, resulting in the problem that the PCE of the device is far lower than the normal value. The electron tunneling protection layer also has the ability to separate carriers, which can also improve the performance of the device. The present invention uses tin oxide and / or IZO as a durable inorganic hole blocking layer instead of C 60 Fullerenes significantly reduce costs and improve the mechanical properties of batteries. At the same time, by setting up an electron tunneling protection layer, harmful chemical reactions and interface barriers between perovskite and the hole blocking layer are eliminated without hindering the normal transmission of electrons, which greatly improves the stability of perovskite components and has broad application prospects.
