[0002] With the development of photovoltaic technology, the energy conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells has been increased to 26.7%, making them a competitive type of solar cell. However, due to the high sensitivity of perovskite to moisture and oxygen in the air, most high-quality perovskite thin films are prepared in a strictly controlled inert environment, which can only be achieved by using complex air or humidity control systems. Inevitably, this increases the cost of manufacturing equipment and is not conducive to large-scale production. Therefore, studying the preparation process of perovskite photovoltaic devices in air has important academic and application values.

[0049] It should be noted that the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0050] Due to excessive defects existing at the interface of the perovskite material in perovskite solar cells and poor carrier transport, in order to overcome these bottlenecks, interface engineering has become a key method to improve the energy conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells. Interface engineering is a technical method that aims to reduce interface defects, improve electron transport, and enhance interface bonding force by regulating the surface properties of materials and interface interactions, thereby improving the performance and stability of optoelectronic devices. However, in the existing processes for improving the interface quality of perovskite materials, either the process is complex and the cost is high, or the interface passivation effect is limited, making it difficult to effectively improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells.
[0051] To this end, the embodiments of the present application provide a perovskite solar cell and a preparation method thereof. By adding an inorganic passivation layer between the perovskite layer and the electron transport layer, the side of the perovskite layer adjacent to the inorganic passivation layer has a larger grain size, thereby effectively reducing the cracks at the grain boundaries, reducing the defects at the interface of the perovskite layer, improving the carrier transport ability, and enhancing the bonding force of the interface. And this perovskite solar cell is easy to prepare and has a low process cost.
[0052] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a perovskite solar cell in an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1As shown, the perovskite solar cell provided by the embodiment of the present application includes a transparent conductive layer 100, a photo - electric conversion layer, and an electrode layer 600 that are stacked in sequence. The photo - electric conversion layer includes a hole - transporting layer 200, a perovskite layer 300, an inorganic passivation layer 400, and an electron - transporting layer 500 that are stacked in sequence; wherein, the D50 particle size of the grains of the perovskite layer 300 is 0.73 μm to 1.65 μm. It can be understood that the passivation effect of the inorganic passivation layer 400 on the perovskite layer 300 makes the grain size of the perovskite layer 300 larger. Therefore, the grain - boundary cracks and defects presented on the interface are reduced, and the interface recombination problem can be better alleviated. Further, the D50 particle size of the grains of the perovskite layer 300 is 1.49 μm to 1.65 μm.
[0053] In this embodiment, the perovskite solar cell is a reverse - type perovskite solar cell. As Figure 1 shown, its hole - transporting layer 200 is in contact with the transparent conductive layer 100, and the electron - transporting layer 500 is in contact with the electrode layer 600. In other alternative embodiments, the perovskite solar cell can also be a normal - type perovskite solar cell, that is, the electron - transporting layer 500 can be in contact with the transparent conductive layer 100, and the hole - transporting layer 200 can be in contact with the electrode layer 600. It should be understood that Figure 1 only the distribution of each layer structure in the perovskite solar cell is schematically shown, and it does not represent the true thickness ratio of each film layer.
[0054] Optionally, the material of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is lead borate or doped lead borate. Lead borate has good chemical stability and thermal stability, can enhance the durability of the interface, and its suitable energy - level arrangement is beneficial to the extraction and transport of charges, thereby improving the conversion efficiency of the solar cell. In the perovskite solar cell of the present application, an inorganic passivation layer 400 containing lead borate is added between the perovskite layer 300 and the electron - transporting layer 500. It has ionized anchoring groups and superior Lewis base properties, can effectively neutralize the local charges near the interface defects of the perovskite layer 300, shows enhanced passivation ability for the defect energy levels, and alleviates the problem of interface recombination. Inserting an inorganic passivation layer 400 on the perovskite layer 300 can reduce charge traps and recombination centers, increase the carrier lifetime, thereby passivating the interface defects and improving the photo - electric conversion efficiency and stability of the perovskite solar cell. When the material of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is lead borate, the D50 particle size of the grains of the perovskite layer 300 can reach 0.73 μm to 1.65 μm. Further, introducing a dopant into the inorganic passivation layer 400 makes it easier for the particles at the grain boundaries to become larger, better reduces the cracks at the grain boundaries, further reduces the interface defects, and improves the passivation effect of the inorganic passivation layer 400. When the material of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is doped lead borate, the D50 particle size of the grains of the perovskite layer 300 can reach 1.49 μm to 1.65 μm.
[0055] Optionally, when the material of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is doped lead borate, it may specifically be selected from at least one of lead borate doped with PbI2, lead borate doped with PbBr2, lead borate doped with PbCl2, and lead borate doped with Pb(SCN)2. The doped halogen ions can chemically interact with the lead vacancies or other defect sites on the perovskite surface, thereby reducing interface defects and improving the passivation effect. When the material of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is lead borate doped with Pb(SCN)2, the D50 particle size of the grains of the perovskite layer 300 can reach more than 1.49 μm. Optionally, the doping ratio in the inorganic passivation layer 400 is 1:1 to 10.

The material of the perovskite layer 300 can be selected as FAPbI3. The material of the electron transport layer 500 can be an inorganic material, such as TiO, ZnO, SnO, WO, etc.; it can also be an organic material, such as PCBM, C60, ICBA, etc. The material of the electrode layer 600 is a metal, such as copper, nickel, molybdenum, or silver.
[0057] Optionally, the thickness of the inorganic passivation layer 400 is 1 nm to 8 nm; the thickness of the transparent conductive layer 100 is 80 nm to 120 nm; the thickness of the hole transport layer 200 is 10 to 30 nm; the thickness of the perovskite layer 300 is 550 nm to 650 nm; the thickness of the electron transport layer 500 is 20 nm to 30 nm; the thickness of the electrode layer 600 is 50 nm to 200 nm.

[0064] Optionally, the ultraviolet ozone treatment lasts for 3 min to 30 min.
[0065] The above cleaning steps can remove contaminants, increase surface energy, reduce surface defects of the transparent conductive layer 100, and reduce recombination; the ultraviolet ozone treatment can further clean, increase surface hydrophilicity, improve the chemical state, and increase conductivity. Therefore, the performance and stability of the perovskite solar cell can be improved.

[0068] Step S210: Fabricate a hole transport layer 200 on the transparent conductive layer 100.
[0069] Optionally, a raw material for fabricating the hole transport layer 200, such as at least one of PTAA, 2PACZ, NiO x , 4PADBC, is coated on the transparent conductive layer 100. The spin coating method can be used, with a rotation speed between 3000 rpm and 6000 rpm and a time of 10 s to 60 s. After spin coating is completed, it is placed on a hot plate at 90 °C to 120 °C for annealing treatment, and the annealing time is 5 min to 20 min.
[0070] Step S220: Fabricate a perovskite layer 300 on the hole transport layer 200.
[0071] Taking the fabrication of an FAPbI2 perovskite thin film as an example, optionally, the steps for fabricating the perovskite layer 300 include: coating a solution containing a PbI2 precursor on the hole transport layer 200 and performing annealing to obtain a PbI2 thin film; coating a solution containing an organic ammonium salt on the PbI2 thin film and performing annealing to obtain the perovskite layer 300.

[0078] It should be understood that the above steps S210 to S240 are introduced by taking the fabrication of a p-i-n perovskite solar cell as an example. When fabricating a normal perovskite solar cell, the electron transport layer 500, the inorganic passivation layer 400, the perovskite layer 300, and the hole transport layer 200 should be fabricated in sequence.

[0117] Comparative Example 1
[0118] It is only different from Example 1 in that step 4) is omitted, that is, the inorganic passivation layer 400 is not prepared.
[0119] The perovskite solar cells prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 were tested for short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, efficiency, and fill factor under the same test conditions. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0120] Table 1:
[0121]
[0122] Figure 3 This is the J-V curve diagram of the perovskite solar cells prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 of this application. Combining Figure 3 with Table 1, it can be seen that the perovskite solar cells with an inorganic passivation layer are superior to those without an inorganic passivation layer in terms of short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, efficiency, and fill factor. The open-circuit voltage and fill factor of the perovskite solar cells without lead borate passivation are significantly reduced. Among the various examples, Examples 2-5 using doped lead borate have better performance in test items such as short-circuit current, efficiency, and fill factor.
[0123] Figure 4 This is the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the perovskite layer after setting the inorganic passivation layer in Example 1 of this application; Figure 5 This is the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the perovskite layer after setting the inorganic passivation layer in Example 2 of this application; Figure 6 This is the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the perovskite layer in Comparative Example 1. From Figure 4 and Figure 5 it can be seen that the defects at the grain boundaries of the perovskite layer passivated with lead borate or Pb(SCN)2-doped lead borate are significantly reduced, and the crystal planes are larger. While Figure 6 as shown in
[0124] Figure 7 This is the stability test diagram of the perovskite solar cells prepared in Examples 1-2 and Comparative Example 1 of this application. The perovskite solar cells prepared in Examples 1-2 and Comparative Example 1 were tested for the percentage of their photoelectric efficiency under the same light conditions to investigate the decay rate of the photoelectric efficiency over time. As Figure 7As shown, for the perovskite solar cells of Examples 1-2 with an inorganic passivation layer, their stability is significantly better than that of Comparative Example 1 without an inorganic passivation layer. In addition, the stability of the perovskite solar cell passivated with Pb(SCN)2-doped lead borate is better than that of the lead borate passivation without any doping. The reason is that the introduction of thiocyanate ions can form a stable coordination structure with lead ions in the perovskite, which helps to inhibit the phase transition of the perovskite material and maintain its structural stability. Therefore, the doped lead borate as a passivation layer not only exhibits excellent optoelectronic efficiency but also excellent stability.
