[0034] As can be seen from the background art, how to develop high-efficiency and low-cost HTMs has become an important research topic.
[0035] The perovskite materials in PSCs are very sensitive to moisture and heat. During the operation of perovskite solar cells, the decomposition of the perovskite absorption layer will occur, and the stability of perovskite solar cells will be damaged. For inverted PSCs, the HTL is deposited on the surface of the conductive substrate prior to the perovskite absorption layer and can be used to regulate the growth of perovskite crystals and interfacial properties. Therefore, it plays a crucial role in the preparation of high-efficiency devices.
[0036] Currently, HTMs in perovskite solar cells are mainly divided into three categories: inorganic hole transport materials, organic small molecule hole transport materials, and organic polymer hole transport materials. Small molecule HTMs have a definite structure and molecular weight. According to the spatial structure, they can be roughly divided into three categories: linear structure, spiro structure, and star structure. They can also be divided into dithienopyrrole type, triphenylamine type, carbazole type, bifluorene type, thiophene type, etc. according to the different groups contained in the molecular structure. Small molecule HTMs have become the most common type of HTMs in perovskite solar cells due to their advantages such as a variety of synthetic varieties, adjustable properties, high purity, and easy solution processing. However, due to their rigid structure, they have low tolerance to perovskite precursor solutions. The films produced by small molecule HTMs always have morphological defects such as pinholes, and are morphologically unstable under external stimuli. Moreover, many small molecule HTMs require the addition of dopants, and these factors also pose obstacles to the large-scale commercialization of PSCs.
[0037] Introducing sulfur-containing functional groups into HTMs can improve the planarity and conductivity of molecules. Sulfur can also coordinate with Pb 2+ atoms and passivate defects at the surface and grain boundaries. The two commonly used sulfur functional groups are thiophene and methylthio groups. Phenothiazine (PTZ) and phenoxazine (POZ) are molecules with a nearly planar ternary heterocyclic structure, and the dihedral angles are approximately 169° and 153° respectively. They are common functional materials in PSCs. However, there are still few reports on their application fields in small molecule HTMs.
[0038] The embodiments of the present application provide a perovskite solar cell, its preparation method, a tandem solar cell, and a photovoltaic module. The hole transport layer in the perovskite solar cell includes hole transport materials 4PA-POZ and 4PA-PTZ. 4PA-POZ and 4PA-PTZ are centered on POZ or PTZ. Under the guidance of reaction mechanisms such as Suzuki-Miyaura type C-C coupling, small molecule HTMs centered on phenothiazine (PTZ) or phenoxazine (POZ) and with thiophene triphenylamine as the end group are constructed, which is at least beneficial to improving the efficiency of perovskite solar cells while reducing the cost of HTMs.
