Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of perovskite solar cell preparation, and particularly to a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure, a preparation method thereof, and a perovskite solar cell module. Background Art
[0002] Existing tandem or series-connected perovskite solar cells have relatively high requirements in terms of optical and electrical matching. The number of perovskite solar cells with a conventional structure that can be connected in series in a tandem cell is generally at most three layers. After exceeding three layers, due to the continuous weakening of the incident light intensity, the process difficulty increases significantly, and the cost of the transparent conductive electrode is relatively high, making it difficult to reduce the total cost.
[0003] In view of the above situation, perovskite solar cells with a lateral structure can solve the above problems. However, perovskite solar cells with a lateral structure are still restricted by technical problems in their application and development. For example, the distance between electrodes is too large, and photo-generated carriers recombine before reaching the electrodes, resulting in too low efficiency. Moreover, the preparation process of the lateral perovskite solar cell structure in the prior art is relatively complex and the reliability is poor. The failure of a single sub-cell in the battery module poses a risk of causing the failure of the entire device. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The realization, functional characteristics and advantages of the object of the present invention will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Detailed implementation manners
[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0027] It should be noted that if there are directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) involved in the embodiments of the present invention, the directional indications are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.
[0028] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears throughout the text, its meaning includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or a solution where A and B are satisfied simultaneously. In addition, the technical solutions between various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope required by the present invention.
[0029] The technical problem solved by this application is that the existing stacked or tandem perovskite solar cells have high requirements for equipment and processes, and the number of perovskite solar cells with a conventional structure that can be connected in series in the stacked cells is limited; although the conventional lateral structure perovskite solar cells have significantly lower parasitic losses for light during series and parallel connections, there are also related technical problems hindering their further application. For example, the distance between electrodes is too large, and photo-generated carriers are prone to recombination, resulting in too low battery efficiency; for example, the reliability of the device is poor, and when one of the sub-cells fails, there is a risk of causing the entire device to fail.
[0030] In order to solve the above technical problems, a perovskite battery for a series-parallel battery pack is designed with lower preparation process requirements, a simpler structure, better reliability, and higher photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0031] The present invention provides a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure. The perovskite solar cell with the lateral structure includes: a substrate; at least two electrodes disposed on the same side surface of the substrate, and grooves are formed between the electrodes and the substrate; a perovskite light-absorbing layer filled in the grooves.
[0032] It should be noted that the perovskite solar cell with the lateral structure in the present invention still maintains the "sandwich" structure of "electrode - photoactive layer - electrode". The cross-section of the conventional solar cell in the present invention is used as the light-receiving surface, and light does not need to pass through the electrodes and can directly reach the perovskite light-absorbing layer, thereby reducing the light dissipation of the electrodes and further increasing the light absorption amount.
[0033] It should also be noted that in the present invention, multiple solar cells can be interconnected through pre-constructed electrodes. The positive electrode of each solar cell and the negative electrode of another solar cell share one electrode to form a series structure; it can also be that each solar cell has a positive electrode and a negative electrode simultaneously to form a series structure; or it can be that some solar cells share electrodes and some solar cells have positive electrodes and negative electrodes simultaneously to jointly form a series structure.
[0034] It should further be noted that when the substrate in the present invention is made of a conductive material, taking FTO glass as an example, the FTO layer in the middle part of the FTO glass is etched away, and the bottom glass layer is retained as the substrate, and the FTO layers on both sides are used as electrodes. Based on the perovskite solar cell with the lateral structure thus obtained, electrodes do not need to be separately prepared by other means. The perovskite light-absorbing layer is confined in the grooves formed by the electrodes and the substrate, and the electrodes on both sides, namely the FTO layers and the glass layer serving as the substrate, have good water resistance, chemical resistance, and resistance to thermal and cold shocks, thereby preventing the perovskite light-absorbing layer from being eroded by water, oxygen, etc. from the bottom and laterally, improving the stability and service life of the perovskite solar cell. During the production process, only the backlight surface of the perovskite solar cell needs to be encapsulated, and the encapsulation process is simpler and the reliability is further improved.
[0035] In one embodiment, the perovskite light-absorbing layer includes a two-dimensional perovskite thin film.
[0036] In one embodiment, the perovskite light-absorbing layer includes a mesoporous layer and a three-dimensional perovskite material filled in the mesoporous layer; the mesoporous layer includes at least one of a mesoporous titanium oxide layer, a mesoporous aluminum oxide layer, a mesoporous tin oxide layer, a mesoporous zirconium oxide layer, a mesoporous nickel oxide layer, and a mesoporous carbon electrode.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the mesoporous layer has a core-shell composite structure, and the core-shell composite structure includes a composite structure with a mesoporous metal layer as the core and a mesoporous metal oxide layer as the shell, that is, a mesoporous metal layer is coated on the surface of the mesoporous metal layer. It should be noted that in the mesoporous layer of the core-shell composite structure filled with perovskite materials, the mesoporous metal layer as the core does not directly contact the perovskite materials. The mesoporous metal layer as the core can play a role in reducing the carrier transport resistance, which is beneficial to reducing current loss; while the mesoporous metal oxide layer as the shell plays a role in energy level matching and suppressing carrier recombination, which is beneficial to improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency. It should be noted that a reaction will occur when the perovskite contacts the mesoporous metal layer. Therefore, a layer of metal oxide is required to separate the mesoporous metal layer from the perovskite materials.
[0038] It should be noted that the perovskite light-absorbing layer in the perovskite battery of the present invention can be a thin film structure coated on the surface of the substrate, or a mesoporous structure, that is, the perovskite materials are filled in the mesoporous layer. Compared with the thin film structure, the mesoporous structure is more suitable as the perovskite light-absorbing layer in the present invention. The thickness of the conventional mesoporous layer is relatively large, and the distance between the electrodes in the lateral structure perovskite battery is relatively wide. The mesoporous materials can be deposited in the trench area formed by the electrodes and the substrate through a relatively simple process to form the mesoporous layer. Moreover, the mesoporous structure has lower requirements for surface flatness, thus having lower requirements for processing accuracy, lower process difficulty, and significantly lower processing costs. It should also be noted that the mesoporous layer in the perovskite light-absorbing layer can be composed of a single layer, a double layer or a triple layer of mesoporous layers with different properties. Due to the lateral battery structure, the mesoporous layer is also laterally distributed.
[0039] In one embodiment, the perovskite light-absorbing layer includes a two-dimensional perovskite thin film, a mesoporous layer, and a three-dimensional perovskite material filled in the mesoporous layer. It can be understood that the perovskite light-absorbing layer in this embodiment includes perovskite crystals with a mesoporous structure and perovskite crystals with a layered structure.
[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the concentration of photo-generated carriers generated by the three-dimensional perovskite material in the mesoporous layer is relatively high, but the disadvantage is that there are more interface defects between the mesoporous layer and the charge blocking layer or the electrode, which is prone to non-radiative recombination and causes greater loss of carriers; while the concentration of photo-generated carriers generated by the two-dimensional perovskite thin film is significantly lower than the former, and the two-dimensional perovskite thin film is closer to the charge blocking layer and receives less light, but the two-dimensional perovskite thin film has fewer interface defects with the charge blocking layer or the electrode. Therefore, in this embodiment, the combination of the two-dimensional perovskite thin film and the three-dimensional perovskite material results in a higher photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite battery.
[0041] In one embodiment, the height of the electrode is 0.5 μm to 2 μm; the width of the electrode is 0.05 μm to 30 μm; the distance between adjacent electrodes is 0.5 μm to 1000 μm.
[0042] It should be noted that the height of the electrode specifically refers to the height of the electrode in the direction perpendicular to the substrate. The height of the electrode can be 0.5 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, and 2 μm. The height of the electrode includes but is not limited to the above values, and any value within the above range is acceptable. The width of the electrode specifically refers to the thickness of the electrode in the direction parallel to the substrate surface. The width of the electrode can be 0.05 μm, 0.6 μm, 1 μm, 3 μm, 30 μm. The width of the electrode includes but is not limited to the above values, and any value within the above range is acceptable. The spacing between adjacent electrodes can be 0.5 μm, 1 μm, 100 μm, 200 μm, 1000 μm, including but not limited to the above values, and any value within the above range is acceptable.
[0043] It should also be noted that by defining the relevant parameters of the electrode, the comprehensive performance of the perovskite battery is improved; by defining the height of the electrode, the shadow effect is prevented from occurring and affecting light absorption; by defining the width of the electrode, especially when the electrode is a highly transparent material such as FTO, a good balance between low resistance and high light transmittance of the electrode can be ensured; by defining the spacing between adjacent electrodes, a sufficiently large effective area of the perovskite light-absorbing layer is ensured, while reducing the risk of carrier recombination and reducing recombination losses.
[0044] It should also be noted that in the perovskite battery of the present invention, the heights of the electrode, the perovskite light-absorbing layer, and the charge blocking layer are the same. On the one hand, if the height of the electrode or the charge blocking layer is higher than that of the perovskite light-absorbing layer, it is not conducive to light energy absorption; on the other hand, if the height of the perovskite light-absorbing layer is higher, the carriers generated by the excess perovskite crystals are difficult to collect and are prone to deterioration and decomposition. Therefore, during the preparation process, it is necessary to keep the heights of the electrode, the perovskite light-absorbing layer, and the charge blocking layer the same. The above heights all refer to the heights in the direction perpendicular to the substrate.
[0045] In one embodiment, the electrode is selected from at least one of a metal oxide electrode, a carbon electrode, and a metal electrode. It can be understood that the two electrodes of a single perovskite battery in the present invention can be composed of the same material or different materials.
[0046] In one embodiment, the substrate is selected from any one of glass, quartz, mica, and plastic. It should be noted that if the substrate uses a transparent material and the top is encapsulated with a transparent material or not encapsulated, double-sided light incidence from the bottom and the top can be achieved; if the substrate uses an opaque material, light can still enter through the top.
[0047] In one embodiment, the perovskite battery with a lateral structure further includes: a charge blocking layer, and the charge blocking layer is disposed between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electrode.
[0048] It should be noted that in traditional perovskite solar cells, an electron transport layer (ETL) or a hole transport layer (HTL) is usually provided between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electrode to promote the efficient transport of electrons or holes; while in the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure of the present invention, the diffusion length of the carriers in the perovskite light-absorbing layer in the lateral direction is much longer than the diffusion length of a conventional perovskite thin film in the electron movement direction, enabling electrons or holes to directly transport from the perovskite light-absorbing layer to the electrode. Therefore, a hole blocking layer or an electron blocking layer is used in the present invention to inhibit the reverse flow of holes or electrons.
[0049] In one embodiment, the width of the charge blocking layer is 10 - 60 nm. It should be noted that the width of the charge blocking layer specifically refers to the thickness of the charge blocking layer in the direction parallel to the substrate, which can be 10 nm, 20 nm, 50 nm, 55 nm, 60 nm; including but not limited to the above values, and any value within the above range is acceptable. In order to achieve a better collection effect of the perovskite light-absorbing layer on electrons and holes, it is necessary to limit the width of the charge blocking layer.
[0050] In one embodiment, the charge blocking layer includes at least one of a P-type blocking layer and an N-type blocking layer, wherein the P-type blocking layer is selected from any one of Spiro-OMeTAD, PTAA, NiO X 、Al2O3、Cu2O、CuSCN、CuI、MoO X 、PEDOT、P3HT、BCP; the N-type blocking layer is selected from any one of TiO2, ZnO, WO3, SnO2, AlN, GaN, BCP, fullerenes and their derivatives.
[0051] It should be noted that when charge blocking layers are provided between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electrodes on both sides in a perovskite solar cell, one of them is a P-type blocking layer and the other is an N-type blocking layer; and in a series-parallel battery pack in the same circuit, the types of the charge blocking layers on the same side in each perovskite solar cell unit are the same.
[0052] In one embodiment, the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure further includes: a passivation layer, which is provided between the charge blocking layer and the perovskite light-absorbing layer. It can be understood that by providing the passivation layer, defects can be passivated, further inhibiting the reverse flow of holes or electrons at the interface and synergistically improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the device.
[0053] The present invention also provides a method for manufacturing the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure, including the following steps: S10. Form at least two electrodes on the surface of the substrate, and grooves are formed between the substrate and the electrodes; S20. Fill the trench with a two-dimensional perovskite thin film and / or a three-dimensional perovskite material to form a perovskite light-absorbing layer, thereby fabricating a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure.
[0054] In one embodiment, in step S10, the method for preparing the electrode includes: Perform laser scribing or ion etching on the FTO conductive glass to expose the glass substrate, and electrodes are respectively formed on the FTO layers on both sides of the glass substrate; Alternatively, perform laser scribing or ion etching on the FTO conductive glass to expose the glass substrate, fill the glass substrate with a carbon material and cure it to form an electrode; Alternatively, print a conductive paste on one surface of the substrate and sinter it to form an electrode; Alternatively, deposit a metal film layer on one surface of the substrate to form an electrode.
[0055] In one embodiment, the method for fabricating the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure includes the following steps: S10. Form at least two electrodes on the surface of the substrate, and the substrate and the electrodes form a trench; S20. Deposit and form a single charge blocking layer on the side wall of one side of the trench; form a perovskite light-absorbing layer in the trench, thereby fabricating a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure.
[0056] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the method for fabricating the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure includes the following steps: S10. Form at least two electrodes on the surface of the substrate, and the substrate and the electrodes form a trench; S20. Deposit and form two charge blocking layers on the side walls of both sides of the trench respectively; form a perovskite light-absorbing layer in the trench, thereby fabricating a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure.
[0057] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the method for fabricating the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure includes the following steps: S10. Form at least two electrodes on the surface of the substrate, and the substrate and the electrodes form a trench; S20. Deposit and form a charge blocking layer on the side wall of one side of the trench; form a perovskite light-absorbing layer in the trench, and deposit and form another charge blocking layer on the side wall of the other side of the trench, thereby fabricating a perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure.
[0058] It should be noted that the differences between the above embodiments are as follows: the distribution of the charge blocking layer in the perovskite solar cell and the manufacturing process of the perovskite solar cell are different. For details, refer to the embodiments of the present invention.
[0059] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the charge blocking layer includes the following steps: Deposit photoresist in the trench, expose the sidewalls of the trench and the glass substrate near the sidewalls by lithography, and cover and deposit a dense titanium oxide layer or a dense tin oxide layer on the sidewalls of the trench by ALD technology to obtain a charge blocking layer.
[0060] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the charge blocking layer includes the following steps: Deposit photoresist in the trench, expose the sidewalls of the trench and the glass substrate near the sidewalls by lithography, drop a nickel oxide nano-dispersion on the sidewalls of the trench, and dry it to form a dense nickel oxide layer to obtain a charge blocking layer.
[0061] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the charge blocking layer includes the following steps: Deposit photoresist in the trench, expose the sidewalls of the trench and the glass substrate near the sidewalls by lithography, and form a dense nickel oxide layer on the sidewalls of the trench by magnetron sputtering to obtain a charge blocking layer.
[0062] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the charge blocking layer includes the following steps: Deposit photoresist in the trench, expose the glass substrate between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the electrode by lithography, fill the sidewalls of the trench with Spiro material, and cure it to obtain a charge blocking layer.
[0063] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the charge blocking layer includes the following steps: Place the electrode made of metal material in a pure oxygen environment at room temperature until a dense metal oxide layer is formed on the surface of the electrode to obtain a charge blocking layer.
[0064] It should be noted that the charge blocking layer in the above embodiments includes a P-type blocking layer and an N-type blocking layer. The above embodiments only limit the process and method for preparing the charge blocking layer, and do not limit the specific material types that make up the charge blocking layer. Any material that can be applied to a perovskite solar cell to block charges or holes and uses the preparation method in the above embodiments is acceptable.
[0065] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure further includes the following steps: Fill a passivation material between the perovskite light-absorbing layer and the charge blocking layer to form a passivation layer.
[0066] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the passivation layer includes the following steps: Evaporate and deposit a SAM layer on the surface of the formed charge blocking layer to obtain a passivation layer.
[0067] The present invention also provides a perovskite solar cell module, and the perovskite solar cell module includes the perovskite solar cell with a lateral structure.
[0068] It should be noted that in the related art, a perovskite battery module with a horizontal structure is disclosed, in which the perovskite layer is formed by cross-interleaved arrangement of two-dimensional perovskite and three-dimensional perovskite. One two-dimensional perovskite unit and one three-dimensional perovskite unit constitute a sub-battery unit. This technical solution is equivalent to connecting the perovskite layers of all sub-batteries in series. A major technical problem of this technical solution is that perovskite is an ionic conductor. After the temperature rises under illumination, ion exchange will occur between the two-dimensional and three-dimensional perovskites, which has the risk of causing the perovskite layer to deteriorate and fail. Moreover, the failure of the sub-batteries in the above structure has the risk of causing the entire device to fail. In the present application, the perovskite battery units are connected in parallel or in series through electrodes, and at the same time, the electrodes can also prevent ion exchange from occurring in the perovskite materials of the connected batteries, and the reliability and stability are better.
[0069] It should also be noted that the perovskite solar cell and battery module device with a horizontal structure in the present application can also be used as the power supply of a sensor. Since the voltage is proportional to the number of series connections, under the condition of similar current magnitudes, the horizontally connected series device can provide a high voltage within a very small width range, so as to supply some sensors that require high voltage.

This solution is stirred at room temperature for 6 hours for later use. And the dosage of the perovskite precursor solution is 1 μL.
[0072] The two-dimensional perovskite thin film in the embodiments of the present invention is prepared by directly coating the perovskite precursor solution on the surface of the substrate with chlorobenzene as an antisolvent and annealing at 170 °C for 15 minutes; the three-dimensional perovskite material is prepared by coating the perovskite precursor solution on the surface of a mesoporous framework (including a mesoporous alumina layer, a mesoporous titanium oxide layer, etc.) with chlorobenzene as an antisolvent and annealing at 170 °C for 15 minutes.
[0073] The porosity of the mesoporous oxide in the three-dimensional perovskite material in the embodiments of the present invention is about 60% - 70%.
