Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic solar materials, and in particular relates to a hole transport material and a preparation method thereof, and a perovskite solar cell. Background Art
[0002] Against the backdrop of the deep integration of new energy and semiconductor technologies, perovskite materials, as the core of third-generation semiconductor technology, have become a research hotspot in the photovoltaic field due to their unique organic-inorganic hybrid semiconductor properties (band gap tunable range of 1.2-2.3 eV and long exciton diffusion length). New energy industries (such as solar power generation) are increasingly in need of high-efficiency, low-cost semiconductor devices. Perovskite semiconductor materials, with their low-temperature solution-based fabrication process (<150°C) and high theoretical photoelectric conversion efficiency of 33% (significantly exceeding the 29.4% limit of crystalline silicon semiconductors), can significantly reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of photovoltaic power generation by over 40%, and are considered a key path to breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional silicon-based semiconductor photovoltaic technology.
[0003] However, in the large-scale application of new energy, the rapid development of perovskites is also inseparable from the support of hole transport materials. Among them, the hole transport layer plays a vital role in the extraction and transport of holes, and hole transport materials are the main components of the hole transport layer. The most commonly used high-efficiency hole transport materials are spiro-OMeTAD and PTAA. Existing hole transport materials have problems such as poor wettability with perovskite precursor solutions and easy crystallization of molecules, which easily lead to poor morphology of perovskite films. In addition, the strong electron-absorbing ability of the acceptor and the mismatch between the donor and acceptor energy levels, as well as the high price of the materials, are also the reasons that hinder their commercial application. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Formula (I)
[0014]
[0015] Formula (II).
[0016] This invention, based on the quinoxaline system, undergoes extended conjugation modification using the quinoxaline moiety as an electron acceptor. Single donors, such as triphenylamine, dihydroacenaphthyl, and binaphthyloxy, are introduced to create a multi-donor structure. This enhances intermolecular interactions, increases charge transfer channels, and modulates the HOMO-LUMO distribution. The two cyano groups (-C≡N) at the molecular termini are strong electron-withdrawing groups, attracting electrons through an inductive effect. The donor steric hindrance and intramolecular hydrogen bonding impart varying degrees of rigidity to the molecule, reducing bond rotation and vibration and inhibiting molecular relaxation. The rigid plane of the molecular acceptor helps reduce nonradiative transitions, achieve a deep LOMO level, and improve hole migration efficiency.

[0101] Example 3
[0102] This embodiment provides a perovskite solar cell, using the compound in Example 1 as a hole transport material, and the hole transport layer includes the compound in Example 1. The preparation method thereof includes the following steps:
[0103] S1: The ITO conductive glass substrate was cleaned with detergent and deionized water, dried, and then treated with UV ozone for 15 minutes. After the treatment, 40 μL 15 mg / mL NiO was spin-coated on the surface of the conductive glass layer in air. x The solution was spin-coated at a speed of 4000 rpm for 30 seconds. After spin coating, the solution was transferred to a heating platform and heated at 150°C for 30 minutes to obtain the first hole transport layer.
[0104] S2: Dissolve the compound from Example 1 as a hole transport material in isopropanol to obtain a 0.1 mg / mL solution. In a nitrogen-filled glove box, add 40 μL of this 0.1 mg / mL solution dropwise onto the first hole transport layer and spin-coat at 4000 rpm for 30 seconds. Then, transfer the sample to a heating plate and heat-anneal at 100°C for 10 minutes to obtain the second hole transport layer.
[0105] S3: Dissolve formamidine hydroiodide, methylammonium chloride, methylammonium iodide, cesium iodide, and lead iodide in DMF and DMSO to obtain a perovskite solution. In a nitrogen-filled glove box, spin-coat 68 μL of the perovskite solution onto the second hole transport layer at 1000 rpm for 10 seconds, then at 5000 rpm for 30 seconds. Chlorobenzene is added dropwise during the remaining 10 seconds. The layer is then transferred to a heating plate and heated at 100°C for 30 minutes to obtain the perovskite layer.
[0106] S4: In a nitrogen atmosphere glove box, 23 mg of the electron transport layer material [6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) was dissolved in 1 mL of chlorobenzene to prepare a PC61BM electron transport layer solution, and 28 μL of the PC61BM electron transport layer solution was spin-coated on the surface of the perovskite modified layer at a spin-coating speed of 3000 rpm for 30 s. After the spin-coating, the layer was transferred to a heating table and heated at 65°C for 10 min. Subsequently, 35 μL of 2.5 mg / mL bathocuproine (BCP) was spin-coated at a spin-coating speed of 5000 rpm for 30 s to obtain the electron transport layer.

[0110] Example 5
[0111] This example provides a perovskite solar cell, which differs from Example 3 in that: S2: The compound of Example 1 was dissolved in isopropanol as a hole transport material to obtain a 0.3 mg / mL solution.

[0112] Example 6
[0113] This example provides a perovskite solar cell.

In a nitrogen-filled glove box, 40 μL of the 0.1 mg / mL solution was dropwise added onto the first hole transport layer. The remainder of the process was the same as in Example 3.
[0114] Comparative Example 1
[0115] This comparative example provides a perovskite solar cell, which differs from Example 3 in that the hole transport layer does not include the compound of Example 1 (i.e., there is no second hole transport layer). Step S2 is omitted from the preparation method, and the rest is the same as Example 3.

[0118]
[0119] Formula (III).
[0120] The preparation method thereof is different from that of Example 3 in that the compound of Example 1 is replaced by the diazobenzene fluoranthene compound. The rest is the same as that of Example 3.
[0121] Performance Testing
[0122] 1 HNMR test: measured using a Bruker-400 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, with deuterated chloroform as the solvent;
[0123] Current density-voltage (JV) characteristic curve test: The performance of the device is evaluated by measuring the JV characteristic curve. The experiment uses a solar simulator to provide AM 1.5G, 100 mWcm -2 The JV characteristic curve can be obtained by applying a bias voltage to the two ends of the test cell and measuring the current of its external circuit using a Keithley 2400C digital source meter. The effective area of the device is 0.04cm 2 .
[0124] Steady-state fluorescence emission (PL) spectral characterization testing: Fluorescence emission characterization uses a quartz or glass substrate to prepare the sample. The test sample is spin-coated with a perovskite layer on transparent conductive glass to create a complete sample. Steady-state PL testing uses a xenon lamp as the excitation light source. Transient PL testing uses a different excitation light source. A biexponential fitting method is used to fit the transient PL lifetime, ensuring that the fitting exponent χ is 1 / 4 of the original value. 2 The test structure of Examples 3 to 6 is ITO / NiO x / hole transport material / perovskite layer, the test structure of comparative example 1 is ITO / NiO x / Perovskite layer.
[0125] X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization: Fluorescence emission characterization uses a quartz or glass substrate as the sample preparation. A hole transport layer is applied to a transparent conductive glass substrate, followed by spin coating of the perovskite layer to create a complete sample. The scanning angle ranges from 10 to 45°.
[0126] Figure 3 The JV curves of the perovskite solar cells of the embodiment and the comparative example are shown in Table 1.
[0127] Table 1 JV test results of perovskite solar cells of Example and Comparative Example
[0128]
[0129] As can be seen from Table 1, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell device using the hole transport material provided by Example 1 or 2 as the hole transport layer of the perovskite solar cell is generally better than that of the perovskite solar cell device without the addition of the hole transport material (i.e., Comparative Example 1), and is also better than the perovskite solar cell device using the diazolobenzofluoranthene compound as the hole transport material (i.e., Comparative Example 2). This shows that the hole transport material provided by the present invention plays a role in promoting carrier transport and has a significant effect on improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite device.
[0130] Figure 4 Steady-state photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the perovskite layers of Examples 3 and 6 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are shown. As can be seen, the peak fluorescence intensity of Examples 3 and 6 is lower than that of Comparative Examples 1 and 2. This decrease in fluorescence intensity indicates a reduction in non-radiative recombination of photogenerated carriers in the perovskite layer. The hole transport material provided in Example 1 was introduced into the HTL, optimizing the energy level match between this hole transport material and the perovskite, forming a more efficient charge transfer channel. This effectively facilitates the rapid extraction of holes from the perovskite layer to the electrode and reduces carrier accumulation and recombination within the perovskite.
[0131] Figure 4The time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectra of the perovskite layers of Examples 3 and 6 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are shown. As can be seen from the figure, the fluorescence lifetime curves of the perovskite layers of Examples 3 and 6 are lower than those of Comparative Examples 1 and 2, indicating that the average carrier lifetime of the perovskite films in Examples 3 and 6 is shortened. This is because the hole transport material provided in Example 1 as the hole transport layer of the perovskite solar cell can improve the hole migration efficiency and effectively reduce the non-radiative recombination and loss of photogenerated carriers.

The fitting results are shown in Table 2. As shown in Table 2, the average carrier lifetimes of the perovskite films of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are 196.35 ns and 193.19 ns, respectively, while the average carrier lifetimes of the perovskite films of Examples 6 and 3 are 150.39 ns and 110.45 ns, respectively. τ1 represents the dominant process of surface / grain boundary recombination. The τ1 of Comparative Example 1 is 36.48 ns, the τ1 of Comparative Example 2 is 39.83 ns, and the τ1 of Example 3 is extended to 43.77 ns, indicating that the hole transport material provided by the present invention improves the surface recombination lifetime. τ2 represents the bulk phase recombination process. The τ2 of comparative example 1 is 210.21 ns, the τ2 of comparative example 2 is 196.48 ns, and the τ2 of embodiment 3 decreases to 127.90 ns. The bulk phase lifetime decreases but the surface lifetime increases, indicating that the bulk phase defects are greatly reduced after the surface optimization of this hole transport material.
[0138] From Table 3, we can see that the hole mobility of the perovskite films of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 is 27.27 cm 2 V -1 s -1 and 27.89 cm 2 V -1 s -1The lifetimes of the perovskite films of Example 6 and Example 3 are 38.90 cm 2 V -1 s -1 and 56.88cm 2 V -1 s -1 , which shows that compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the hole transport materials of Examples 3 and 6 not only optimize the molecular stacking, but also reduce the transport barrier through energy level matching (HOMO is aligned with the perovskite valence band), optimize the transport path, and achieve efficient carrier transport.
[0139] Figure 5 The XRD patterns of Example 3 and Comparative Example 1 are shown. In the XRD patterns, the diffraction peak at 14.4° represents the (110) crystal plane of the perovskite. As can be seen from the figure, the diffraction angle of Example 3 did not change significantly, indicating that the hole transport material provided in Example 1 did not change the perovskite structure. Compared with Comparative Example 1, the diffraction peak intensity corresponding to the (110) crystal plane of Example 3 increased, indicating that the hole transport material provided in Example 1, as a hole transport layer, enhanced the preferential orientation of the perovskite grains and improved the crystallization quality of the perovskite layer.
