Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of perovskite solar cells and quantum dot light-emitting diodes, and particularly to a novel polymer hole transport material containing spirofluorene oxadiazole in the main chain and its application as a hole transport material. In addition, the present invention also relates to a perovskite solar cell and a perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode. Background Art
[0002] As a clean and renewable energy source, solar energy has gradually become a good choice to replace traditional fossil fuels and an important means to boost the development of the green economy and achieve the transformation of the energy structure. Research shows that the energy in the sun is sufficient to drive the operation of the solar system for 5 billion years. The energy the sun brings to the earth every day is more than 10,000 times the energy consumed by humans every day, but most of the energy is not utilized. A solar cell is an optoelectronic device that converts solar energy into electrical energy and is a cheap and efficient way to obtain clean electrical energy. Perovskite solar cells have attracted extensive attention due to their high photoelectric conversion efficiency, good low-light performance, low raw material cost, simple and convenient production, etc. At present, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells has reached 27.1%, significantly higher than that of traditional silicon cells.
[0003] With the development of technology, people's living standards are increasing day by day, and the requirements for light sources in life are also gradually increasing, such as high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, etc. In 2023, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to three researchers, the Franco-Tunisian-American chemist Moungi Bawendi, the American chemist Louis Brus, and the Russian physicist Alexei Ekimov, who have done pioneering work in the field of quantum dots. Subsequently, quantum dot light-emitting diodes have developed rapidly. Quantum dot semiconductor materials have the advantages of high color purity, adjustable bandgap, low cost, solution processing at low temperature, and good stability, and can meet the display requirements of low cost, wide color gamut, and ultra-high definition, showing great application potential in the field of new displays.
[0004] The efficiency and long-term stability of devices such as perovskite solar cells and quantum dot light-emitting diodes strongly depend on hole transport materials. Polymer hole transport materials (HTMs) have excellent electrical conductivity, film-forming properties, and thermal stability, and have now become the mainstream hole transport materials in perovskite solar cells and quantum dot light-emitting diodes. Traditional polymer hole transport materials, such as poly(triarylamine) (PTAA), poly[bis(4-phenyl)(4-butylphenyl)amine] (poly-TPD), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-alt-N-(4-sec-butylphenyl)-diphenylamine) (TFB), etc., although having excellent hole mobilities, have a HOMO energy level of only -5.20 eV. In perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diodes and perovskite solar cells, the valence band of perovskite usually reaches -5.80 eV. Therefore, there is a problem of energy level mismatch for traditional polymers in devices. Secondly, traditional polymers have no passivating groups and cannot passivate perovskite with numerous defect states, reduce its defect state density, and thereby improve the device efficiency. In addition, the synthesis of PTAA and poly-TPD is complex and the purification is cumbersome, resulting in their high prices and significant differences between different production batches, which limits their large-scale commercial applications. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop new polymer hole transport materials with excellent performance and low cost. Summary of the Invention
[0005] One of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a novel SFX-based polymer hole transport material. The main chain of the polymer hole transport material is composed of repeating units formed by connecting spirofluorene oxazine (SFX) or triphenylamine and spirofluorene oxazine (SFX). Triphenylamine ensures that the material has a suitable HOMO energy level and good hole transport performance. At the same time, due to the rigidity of the structure of SFX, the material can have excellent thermal stability and uniform film-forming properties. The introduction of alkoxy groups in the side chain can improve the solubility of the material and is suitable for device fabrication based on solution methods. The hole transport polymer material provided by the present invention has the advantages of good film-forming properties, good hole transport properties, low cost, and strong interfacial passivation effect, and is suitable for large-area electron transport devices.
[0006] In order to achieve the above objectives, the technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0015] More preferably, it includes any one of the following compounds 1 to 16, including but not limited to:
[0016]
[0017] The second object of the present invention is to provide the application of the above - mentioned SFX - type polymer as an HTM material in a light - emitting device. In particular, perovskite solar cells and quantum dot light - emitting diodes using the polymer of the present invention as the HTM layer (hole - transporting layer) material exhibit excellent efficiency and good device reproducibility.
[0018] The technical solution for the present invention to solve the above problems is as follows: An application of an SFX - type polymer hole - transporting material, characterized in that the HTM layer (hole - transporting layer) of the device contains the spirofluorene - based polymer hole - transporting material of the present invention.
[0019] A perovskite solar cell, whose structure from bottom to top is successively: ITO glass / PEDOT:PSS / HTM / perovskite / C60 / BCP / Al, where the HTM is a hole transport layer containing the spirofluoreneoxanthene polymer hole transport material of the present invention.
[0020] A perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode, whose structure from bottom to top is successively ITO glass / PEDOT:PSS / HTM / perovskite light-emitting layer / TPBi / LiF / Al, where the HTM is a hole transport layer containing the spirofluoreneoxanthene polymer hole transport material of the present invention. The preparation method of the perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode is as follows: (1) The ITO glass is successively ultrasonically cleaned with deionized water, isopropanol and acetone, and then subjected to ultraviolet light irradiation. After the PEDOT:PSS solution is filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, it is spin-coated on the ITO glass at a speed of 3000 rpm, and then annealed at a temperature of 150 °C; (2) The spirofluoreneoxanthene polymer hole transport material of the present invention is dissolved in chlorobenzene, the solution is filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, and then spin-coated on the PEDOT:PSS at a speed of 4000 rpm, and then annealed at a temperature of 120 °C; (3) The perovskite quantum dots dispersed in n-octane are spin-coated on the hole transport layer at a speed of 2000 rpm, and then annealed at a temperature of 90 °C; (4) Then, a certain thickness of TPBi layer, LiF layer and aluminum electrode are successively evaporated on the surface of the above device.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0022] (1) The present invention provides a novel SFX class of polymer hole transport materials. The innovation compared with the prior art is that a class of novel chemical structures is designed and synthesized, and it shows excellent efficiency and good device repeatability when used as a material for the HTM layer (hole transport layer) in perovskite solar cells and quantum dot light-emitting diodes. The novel SFX class of polymer hole transport materials provided by the present invention has a triphenylamine main chain, and spirofluoreneoxanthene and pyridine structures are introduced into the side chains. Therefore, it has a high hole mobility, and the HOMO energy level reaches -5.40 eV, effectively solving the problem that the hole mobility and the HOMO energy level cannot be taken into account at the same time. At the same time, the introduction of pyridine in the structure can effectively passivate the defects on the perovskite surface, reduce the defect state density in the device, and improve the device efficiency.
[0023] (2) The SFX-based polymer hole transport material provided by the present invention is significantly simpler in the synthesis process compared to the commercial Spiro-OMeTAD material. Spirofluorene oxanthrene can be synthesized by a one-pot method under the catalysis of an acid, with a yield of over 85%. The raw materials are inexpensive, and the purification process is simple, making it more suitable for large-scale industrial production. For traditional polymer hole transport materials, such as PTAA and Poly-TPD, due to the inability to precisely control the molecular weight distribution range during the synthesis process, there are significant differences in the molecular weight distribution among different batches, which in turn leads to significant differences in device performance. In the post-treatment process of purifying the compounds in the present invention, after washing with n-hexane, methanol, and acetone in sequence for 12 hours, a molecular weight with an extremely narrow distribution range can be obtained, and the PDI is less than 1.5. The SFX-based polymer hole transport material provided by the present invention is applied to the field of quantum dot light-emitting diodes. Based on the good hole transport performance, relatively deep HOMO energy level, excellent passivation effect, etc. of the spirofluorene oxanthrene-based structure, it can promote the large-scale commercial application of perovskite solar cells and perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diodes.
[0024] (3) The SFX-based polymer hole transport material provided by the present invention is superior in terms of the maximum brightness, maximum current efficiency (CE), maximum power efficiency (PE), maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE), etc. of the perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode device compared to the polymer hole transport materials PTAA and Poly-TPD, which are commercialized and widely used. The performance of the device prepared with the polymer hole transport material of the present invention is comprehensively better than that of the devices prepared with the above two existing materials. The maximum brightness of the device prepared with the polymer hole transport material of the present invention is 35551.34 cd·m -2 to 61103.63 cd·m -2 However, for the devices prepared with the two existing materials, the corresponding maximum brightness is only 24203.24 cd·m -2 and 22573.89 cd·m -2 , that is, the maximum brightness exceeds by at least about 46.89%. Again, for the maximum current efficiency (CE) index, the test data range of the device prepared with the polymer hole transport material of the present invention is 84.22 cd·A -1 to 91.75 cd·A -1 However, the corresponding test data of the devices prepared with the two existing materials are 62.79 cd·A -1 and 60.35 cd·A -1Furthermore, the maximum external quantum efficiency of the devices prepared with the polymer hole transporting materials of the present invention all exceeded 22%, and the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the device prepared with Compound 6 even reached 24.26%, while the maximum external quantum efficiencies of the two types of existing materials were only 16.81% and 16.16% respectively. Similarly, the photoelectric conversion efficiencies of the perovskite solar cell devices prepared with the polymer hole transporting materials of the present invention all reached over 20%, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the device prepared with Compound 2 reached 22.51%, while the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the device prepared with the corresponding existing material PTAA was only 18.30. Therefore, the compound materials of the present invention have better commercial application prospects. Description of the Drawings

Example 6
[0089] Taking the non-doped hole transport material compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 prepared in Examples 1-5 as examples, perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode devices are prepared as the hole transport layer, and its structure is ITO / PEDOT:PSS / HTM / CsPbBr3 / TPBi / LiF / Al.
[0090] Device preparation method: The ITO glass is successively ultrasonically cleaned with deionized water, isopropanol, and acetone, and then irradiated with ultraviolet light for 20 min. After the PEDOT:PSS solution is filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, it is spin-coated on the ITO glass at a speed of 3000 rpm for 45 s (spin-coating concentration 5 mg·mL -1 ), and then annealed at 150 °C for 20 min. Compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 are dissolved in chlorobenzene (3, 5, 7, 9 mg / mL). After the dissolved chlorobenzene solution is filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, it is spin-coated on PEDOT:PSS at a speed of 4000 rpm for 45 s, and then annealed at 120 °C for 20 min. The perovskite quantum dots dispersed in n-octane are spin-coated on the hole transport layer at a speed of 2000 rpm for 45 s, and then annealed at 90 °C for 5 min. Immediately afterwards, 45 nm of TPBi, 1.5 nm of LiF, and 100 nm of aluminum electrode are successively evaporated.
[0091] Using the compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 prepared in Examples 1-5 as the hole transport layer, perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode devices are prepared and characterized according to the above procedure. The device performance characteristic curves are shown in Figures 1 to 4 .
[0092] It can be seen from Figures 1 to 4 that for the device prepared with Compound 1, its maximum brightness is 44132.8 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 88.85 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 121.66 lm·W -1 , and the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 23.98%; for the device prepared with Compound 2, the maximum brightness is 61103.63 cd·m -2, the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 85.21 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 81.89 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 22.63%; the maximum luminance of the device fabricated with Compound 5 is 42507.13 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 84.22 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 117.19 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 22.30%; the maximum luminance of the device fabricated with Compound 6 is 35551.34 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 91.75 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 122.55 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 24.26%; the maximum luminance of the device fabricated with Compound 9 is 44828.59 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 86.97 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 108.77 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 22.93%.
[0093] For comparison, using the commercially available and widely used polymer hole transport materials PTAA and Poly-TPD as the hole transport layer respectively, perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diode devices were fabricated according to the exactly same procedure above and their performances were tested. The performance characteristic curves of the tested devices are shown in Figures 5 to 8 .
[0094] It can be seen from Figures 5 to 8 that the maximum luminance of the device fabricated with PTAA is 24203.24 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 62.79 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 63.64 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 16.81%; the maximum luminance of the device fabricated with the commercially available polymer hole transport material Poly-TPD is 22573.89 cd·m -2 , the maximum current efficiency (CE) is 60.35 cd·A -1 , the maximum power efficiency (PE) is 70.39 lm·W -1 , the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) is 16.16%.
[0095] The above test results show that the maximum external quantum efficiency of the commercially available polymer hole transport materials PTAA and Poly-TPD is both below 16.9%. For the devices prepared with the compounds provided by the present invention, the corresponding maximum external quantum efficiency all exceeds 20%, and the corresponding device performance significantly surpasses that of PTAA and Poly-TPD, showing good commercial application prospects. The underlying reason is that Compound 1, Compound 2, Compound 5, Compound 6 and Compound 9 of the present invention have deeper HOMO energy levels (more matched with the valence band of perovskite quantum dots), more excellent hole mobilities and good passivation effects on perovskite quantum dots compared with the existing commercial polymer materials.

Example 7
[0097] Using Compound 1, Compound 2, Compound 5, Compound 6 and Compound 9 prepared in Examples 1-5 as the non-doped hole transport layer to prepare perovskite solar cells, and its structure is ITO / PEDOT:PSS / HTM / CsPbBr3 / C60 / BCP / Ag.
[0098] Preparation method: The ITO glass is successively ultrasonically cleaned with deionized water, acetone and isopropanol, and then irradiated with ultraviolet light for 20 min. After the PEDOT:PSS solution is filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, it is spin-coated at a speed of 3000 rpm for 45 s (spin-coating concentration 5 mg·mL -1 ) on the ITO glass, and then annealed at a temperature of 150 °C for 20 min. Compound 1, Compound 2, Compound 5, Compound 6 and Compound 9 are dissolved in chlorobenzene (10 mg / mL), and the dissolved chlorobenzene solution is also filtered through a 0.22 μm filter head, and then spin-coated on PEDOT:PSS at a speed of 3000 rpm for 45 s, and then annealed at a temperature of 120 °C for 15 min. The perovskite layer is deposited by spin-coating the perovskite precursor solution in one step, and this solution is prepared by mixing FAI, PbI2, MABr and PbBr2 in a mixed solvent of DMF and DMSO solution (volume ratio 4:1), and its molar concentration is 1.35 MPb 2+ (PbI2 and PbBr2). PbI2 / PbBr2 = 85 / 15, PbI2 / FAI = 1.05, PbBr2 / MABr = 1 / 1. The DMF / DMSO mixed solution containing the perovskite precursor is spin-coated on the hole transport layer at a speed of 2000 rpm for 45 s, 200 μL of chlorobenzene is quickly added dropwise after 30 s of spin-coating, and then annealed at a temperature of 100 °C for 30 min to evaporate the solvent. Immediately, the device is transferred from the glove box to a vacuum evaporation machine to successively evaporate 20 nm of C60, 5 nm of BCP and 100 nm of silver electrode.
[0099] Taking the polymer material compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 prepared in Examples 1-5 as the hole transport layer of the above solar cell as an example, the completed perovskite solar cell was subjected to I-V testing, and the results are as Figure 9 shown. The specific perovskite solar cell data based on Compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 are shown in Table 1 below.
[0100] Table 1
[0101]
[0102] From Table 1 combined with Figure 9 it can be seen that: (1) Among the device performances of the perovskite solar cells prepared from the compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 of the present invention, the device performance of Compound 2 is the best, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency reaches 22%. The photoelectric conversion efficiencies of Compounds 1, 5, 6, and 9 all reach 20%, while the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the commercially available polymer PTAA is only 18%. This shows that the compounds provided by the present invention exhibit good application potential. The reason is that compared with the commercially available polymer hole transport material, the novel spirofluorene oxanthrene-based polymer hole transport material provided by the present invention has a greater molecular polarity, better affinity with the upper perovskite thin film, which is beneficial to the growth of high-quality perovskite crystals and the excellent hole mobility of the material itself, and has a deeper HOMO energy level and good passivation effect.
