Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly to perovskite cells and their preparation methods, tandem cells, and photovoltaic modules. Background Art
[0002] In the more than a decade since 2009, PSCs (perovskite solar cells) have shown excellent development momentum. As the most potential material in the photovoltaic market, PSCs still face huge challenges. In particular, perovskite materials are very sensitive to moisture and heat, and the perovskite absorption layer decomposes during the operation of the battery, and the device stability is damaged. To address the challenges faced by PSCs, researchers have reported various solutions. For inverted PSCs, the HTL (hole transport layer) is deposited on the surface of the conductive glass substrate prior to the perovskite absorption layer, which can regulate the perovskite crystal growth and interface properties, so it plays a crucial role in the preparation of high-efficiency devices.
[0003] As an important component of perovskite solar cells, the materials used for the hole transport layer are crucial. Therefore, selecting a suitable hole transport material is very helpful for the efficiency of the battery. The traditional Spiro-OMeTAD (2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(p-methoxyaniline)-9,9'-spirobifluorene) has a low hole mobility, complex and difficult preparation, and a high price, which limits its commercial application. Therefore, seeking a simpler and more suitable hole transport material is the key to the future development of perovskite solar cells. Currently, hole transport materials are generally divided into organic materials and inorganic materials. Relatively speaking, organic materials have the following advantages: (1) various chemical properties, and according to different molecular structures, various optimizations can be carried out, so that the materials have better optoelectronic properties and hole transport rates; (2) can be processed more conveniently, and the film-forming effect is remarkable; (3) can easily obtain cheap raw materials; (4) can be prepared into flexible thin films and are easily processed into various shapes to adapt to different environments; therefore, organic hole transport materials have been widely used in perovskite solar cells. However, these new hole transport materials still have many problems, such as the need for doping additives, poor stability, toxicity and pollution, and high raw material costs.
[0004] Therefore, how to develop a hole transport material with low cost, good stability, and high photoelectric conversion efficiency is still an urgent problem to be solved in current perovskite solar cells. Summary of the Invention

[0080] In the third aspect, the present application proposes a tandem solar cell.
[0081] In the embodiments of the present application, the tandem cell includes a bottom cell and a top cell; wherein, the bottom cell includes at least one silicon cell, and the silicon cell is selected from any one of crystalline silicon cells and amorphous silicon cells. If the bottom cell includes multiple silicon cells, the multiple silicon cells are stacked; the top cell is stacked on the bottom cell, and the top cell includes one or more perovskite cells, wherein at least one perovskite cell is the perovskite cell described in the first aspect above, or is prepared by the preparation method described in the second aspect above. The top cell includes multiple perovskite cells, and the multiple perovskite cells are stacked.

The embodiments of the present application do not make special limitations in this regard, and those skilled in the art can adjust according to the actual application scenario.
[0083] It should be noted that when the top cell includes multiple crystalline silicon cells, the types of the multiple crystalline silicon cells can be the same or different.
[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, the amorphous silicon cell can be selected from any one of single-junction amorphous silicon cells, amorphous silicon tandem cells (such as: double-junction / triple-junction tandem cells), or other common amorphous silicon cells in the art. The embodiments of the present application do not make special limitations in this regard, and those skilled in the art can adjust according to the actual application scenario.
[0085] Fourthly, the present application also provides a photovoltaic module, which includes a laminate and a frame, and the frame is installed at the edge of the laminate. Specifically, the laminate includes a photovoltaic glass, a first encapsulant film, a cell layer, a second encapsulant film, and a backsheet stacked in sequence, or the laminate includes a first photovoltaic glass, a first encapsulant film, a cell layer, a second encapsulant film, and a second photovoltaic glass stacked in sequence; wherein, the cell layer includes multiple cell strings connected in parallel, and each cell string includes multiple cells connected in series. The cell is a whole cell or a cut piece that is one-Nth of the whole cell, and at least some of the cells are the tandem cells described in the third aspect.
[0086] In some embodiments, adjacent cells in the present application are connected in series through a conductive connector (such as a wire or a solder strip) or a conductive adhesive, that is, one end of the conductive connector is welded to the back electrode of one cell, and the other end of the conductive connector is welded to the front electrode of another cell.
[0087] In some embodiments, adjacent cells can also form a photovoltaic module string by using high-density module technology, that is, the shingle technology, the stacked welding technology, or the diced cell technology, which greatly reduces or eliminates the gap between cells.
[0088] Overlap tile technology: The whole piece of battery is cut into several small battery strips by laser slicing technology, and the small battery strips are stacked and flexibly connected with conductive adhesive. This connection method optimizes the structure of the photovoltaic module string, realizes zero spacing between battery cells, makes full use of the limited area of the photovoltaic module, and more battery cells can be placed with the same form factor compared with other types of modules, effectively increasing the light-receiving area of the module.
[0089] Overlap welding technology: Adjacent half-cell battery slices are'micro-overlapped' and welded through special round wire solder tapes. This connection method greatly reduces the spacing between battery cells in the traditional welding process and realizes high energy density. Compared with ordinary flat solder tapes, the round wire solder tapes have a narrower cross-section, reducing the light-shielding effect of the solder tapes on the battery cells. In addition, the round side of the solder tape enhances the reflection of incident light and the secondary refractive index of light on the front plate glass. The introduction of the round solder tape effectively solves the inherent contradiction between main grid occlusion and increasing the current collection ability, improves the light absorption and utilization of the battery cells, and increases the power of the module.
[0090] Patchwork technology: Triangular solder tapes are used on the front side of the battery cells, and ultra-flexible flat solder tapes are used on the back side. Adjacent half-cell battery slices are welded with a micro-spacing through double solder tape technology, realizing high energy density. The triangular solder tapes used in the patchwork technology are welded three-dimensionally on the front side of the battery. The reflection ability of the nearly 45° side angle to incident light is further improved compared with round solder tapes, and the reflection can be more fully utilized to increase the light absorption ability of the battery and increase the power of the module.
[0091] In the embodiments of the present application, preferably, the frame is made of high-strength lightweight materials, such as: steel, aluminum, or composite materials made of resin and reinforcing materials, where the resin includes polyurethane, polyester, polycarbonate, etc., and the reinforcing materials include glass fiber, aluminum, steel, etc.

Those skilled in the art can make selections according to actual situations and are not limited herein.

[0114] Performance Testing
[0115] 1. HOMO Energy Level Testing:
[0116] To study the energy level matching between ICZ-1 and ICZ-2 materials as HTMs and the perovskite energy level, a three-electrode test system was used to measure the cyclic voltammograms (C-V) of these two polymer HTMs. A three-electrode test system was adopted. Using ferrocene as an external standard, the working electrode was a glassy carbon electrode, the counter electrode was a platinum wire electrode, and the reference electrode was an Ag / AgCl electrode. First, prepare ICZ-1 and ICZ-2 solutions with a concentration of 5 mg / mL in dichloromethane as the solvent, and then use the thin-film method to drop-coat them on the glassy carbon electrode and test in an acetonitrile solution of 0.1 M Bu4NPF6 with a scanning rate of 50 mV·s –1 , at room temperature, the C-V curve was obtained through multiple scans, and then the redox potential of the curve was analyzed, and the HOMO energy level of the material was calculated according to the formula.
[0117] 2. Hole Mobility:
[0118] The space-charge-limited current method was used for testing. A single-hole device of ITO / PEDOT:PSS / HTMs to be measured / MoO3 / Ag was fabricated. The thickness of each layer was determined by a step profiler. Under dark conditions, the J-V characteristic curve of the single-hole device was obtained using a Keithley 2450 Source-Measure instrument. Nonlinear fitting analysis was performed on the curve to obtain the hole mobility of the sample.
[0119] 3. Film-forming performance:
[0120] AFM was used to study the crystallization growth of quasi-two-dimensional perovskite films on different polymer HTMs (hole transport materials), and the RMS roughness on different polymer HTMs was measured.
[0121] 4. Photovoltaic performance and stability testing:
[0122] Using the same preparation method, inverted quasi-two-dimensional perovskite solar cell devices with ICZ-1 and ICZ-2 as hole transport materials were fabricated respectively. The specific preparation method refers to the preparation method of the perovskite solar cell above.
[0123] Under the illumination condition of AM 1.5G, the J-V curves of the devices were measured at a forward and reverse scan rate of 0.02 V·s -1 . As shown in Figure 3 , by analyzing the J-V curves, the photovoltaic parameters of the samples measured, such as Voc, short-circuit current density (Jsc), fill factor (FF), and power conversion efficiency (PCE), can be obtained.
[0124] After storing the devices in an inert environment for 1200 hours, the retention efficiency of the devices (relative to the initial power conversion efficiency) was measured.

[0126]
[0127] The test results shown in Table 1 can prove that: the synthesized polyethylene-based hole transport material designed in this application has excellent film-forming properties (the prepared quasi-two-dimensional perovskite films all exhibit low RMS roughness). As an HTL substrate, it is beneficial to the diffusion and growth of perovskite, thus obtaining a dense, uniform, and smooth perovskite film. Moreover, it also has energy levels matching with perovskite and excellent hole mobility. These characteristics enable the inverted perovskite solar cell devices prepared based on the hole transport material provided in this application to have excellent power conversion efficiency. In addition, it can also be seen from Table 1 above that the structural stability of the inverted perovskite solar cell devices prepared based on the hole transport material provided in this application is also good.
