Description

[0001] Divisional application This application is a divisional application of a Chinese patent application with the application number 2024100785867, the application date of January 18, 2024, and the invention title of "A Method for Improving the Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells by Carbonyl Compounds". Technical field

[0002] The present invention belongs to the technical field of optoelectronic materials, and specifically relates to a formamidinium perovskite solar cell with long-term operating stability and a preparation method thereof. Background art

[0003] Solar energy has always been one of the most promising, reliable and renewable energy sources among various alternative energy sources. Since the discovery of the photovoltaic (PV) effect, solar cell technology has been continuously developed and evolved, making solar energy widely adopted as a viable renewable resource. Perovskite solar cells based on metal-organic halide light-absorbing materials are a new type of solar cell, and their photoelectric conversion efficiency has increased from 3.8% in 2009 to more than 20% currently. However, perovskite is prone to phase transition at room temperature and is liable to generate non-photoactive phases, thereby causing a decrease in the photoelectric power conversion efficiency. Therefore, it is of great significance to prepare perovskite solar cells with long-term operating stability.

[0004] Chinese Patent with the publication number CN111223994A and the invention title of "A Fully Printed Mesoscopic Perovskite Solar Cell Using Carbonyl Small Molecules as Additives and a Preparation Method Thereof" discloses introducing ethylene carbonate with a molar ratio concentration of 6% as a passivator and crosslinker for perovskite crystallization in the perovskite precursor solution. The open-circuit voltage of the finally prepared perovskite solar cell is 0.92V, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is 15.44%. However, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of existing perovskite solar cells has reached more than 20%. Therefore, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cells prepared by this patent strategy is not very high.

[0005] In summary, it is necessary to propose new methods and strategies to alleviate the deficiencies of the existing technology. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a formamidinium perovskite solar cell with long-term operating stability and a preparation method thereof, which partially solves or alleviates the above deficiencies in the existing technology. The present invention specifically adopts the following technical solutions.

[0007] On the one hand, the present invention aims to provide a formamidinium perovskite solar cell with long-term operating stability.

[0017] Furthermore, prepare a 60 - 90 mg / mL Spiro - OMeTAD solution in S05, further add 20 - 40 μL of 4 - tert - butylpyridine solution and 240 - 300 mg / mL of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide solution, and spin - coat on the phenethylammonium iodide layer at 2000 - 5000 revolutions per minute for 20 - 40 seconds.

[0018] Furthermore, evaporate 1 - 9 nm thick molybdenum oxide and 100 - 160 nm thick silver in S06; the silver electrode is disposed on the molybdenum oxide layer.

[0019] On the other hand, the present invention can also provide a method for preparing a highly stable perovskite solar cell based on a carbonyl compound. The method inhibits the non - optically active phase in the perovskite by introducing a three - dimensional compound having at least 3 carbonyl functional groups into the perovskite absorption layer. The three - dimensional compound having at least 3 carbonyl functional groups is 4,4’,4’’ - triaminotriphenylmethanal, and its molar concentration ratio to lead iodide in the perovskite absorption layer includes 0.3 mM:1 - 1.6 M, 0.6 mM:1 - 1.6 M, 1 mM:1 - 1.6 M, 2 mM:1 - 1.6 M, 3 mM:1 - 1.6 M, 4 mM:1 - 1.6 M, or 5 mM:1 - 1.6 M.

Only the compound molecule 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde with at least 3 carbonyl groups and a three-dimensional spatial structure is introduced into the perovskite absorption layer of this solar cell. Experiments have proved that 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde can stabilize the optical active phase of the perovskite (the peak at 2theta of 11.7° corresponds to the non-optical active phase, which does not appear in the XRD, indicating that the non-optical active phase is significantly inhibited). And the highest power conversion efficiency of this perovskite solar cell is 24.6%, and it can maintain more than 90% of the initial PCE after 1000h of stability testing. This shows that the novel formamidinium-based perovskite solar cell provided by the present invention has long-term operation stability.

[0023] The present invention also provides a preparation method for the above-mentioned novel formamidinium-based perovskite solar cell. The process of this method is overall simple and efficient. Only introducing 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde during the preparation of the perovskite light absorption layer can achieve the above technical purpose. Therefore, the preparation method provided by the present invention has the potential for large-scale industrial production. Description of the Drawings

[0062] Table 2 XRD Test Results 2. Long-Term Operational Stability Test Experimental Method: The photocurrent density-voltage (J-V) curve was measured using a solar simulator equipped with a 450 W xenon lamp (Newport 6279 NS) and a Keithley 2400 light source meter. The effective area of the device under test is 0.08 cm 2 (calibration mask). The J-V curve was scanned from -0.1 to 1.2 V (forward scan) or from 1.2 to -0.1 V (reverse scan) at a scan rate of 100 mV −1 . Using a standard Si solar cell calibrated by the National Institute of Metrology (NIM) of the United States, the light intensity was adjusted to AM 1.5G one sun (100 mW cm −2 ). The prepared cells were subjected to J-V tests at 0, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1000 h, and the PCE was recorded.

[0063] Table 3 PCE Results The results show that the perovskite solar cells containing 1 mM of 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde can maintain more than 90% of the initial PCE after 1000 hours of testing. While the PCE of the perovskite solar cells without adding 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde is 61% of the initial value after 1000 hours of testing.

[0064] 3. Power Conversion Efficiency During the measurement of the photocurrent density-voltage (J-V) curve, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) is the ratio of the maximum output power Pmax of the device to the input power Pin of the incident light.

[0065] Table 4 Power conversion efficiency (PCE) of different examples Conclusion: The perovskite solar cell containing 1 mM of 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde has the best photoelectric conversion efficiency, and its photoelectric conversion efficiency is 24.6%. The photoelectric conversion efficiencies of other addition amounts (0.3 - 5 mM) are greater than those of the devices without adding 4,4’,4’’-aminotribenzaldehyde.

[0066] Example 11 This example provides another control example.

[0067] Under an inert gas atmosphere, a mixed solution of 3 mM of 4-butylbenzaldehyde (C 11 H 14 O) containing 1 carbonyl group and 1.0 - 1.6 M of lead iodide (DMF:DMSO volume ratio is 9:1) was dropped onto the tin oxide electron transport layer, spin-coated at 1500 - 2000 revolutions per minute for 10 - 40 seconds, and annealed at 70 °C for 0.5 - 3 minutes; Using isopropanol as the solvent, an organic ligand solution of 0.02 - 0.06 M of methylammonium iodide (MAI), 0.10 - 0.30 M of methylammonium chloride (MACl), and 0.4 - 0.7 M of formamidinium hydroiodide (FAI) was prepared; The above organic ligand solution was dropped onto the annealed lead iodide film and spin-coated at 1600 - 2300 revolutions per minute for 10 - 40 seconds. Annealed at 130 - 170 °C for 10 - 30 minutes under 20 - 40% relative humidity. Among them Figure 6 is the SEM micrograph of adding 4-butylbenzaldehyde (C 11 H 14 O). It can be seen from the figure that there are holes on the perovskite surface and the crystals are small.
