Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of new energy technology, and in particular to perovskite solar cells and their preparation methods, tandem cells and photovoltaic modules. Background Technology

[0002] With the continued exploitation of non-renewable resources such as coal and oil, humanity is facing the imminent problem of energy depletion. Simultaneously, environmental pollution caused by mining has placed a heavy burden on the Earth's ecosystem. Faced with this situation, the exploration of new clean energy sources has become a crucial issue in line with current social development. Renewable energy has rapidly become a focus of attention, among which solar energy has outstanding advantages such as being environmentally friendly, pollution-free, and abundant. The invention of solar cells, which can achieve photoelectric conversion, has enabled the effective utilization of solar energy, giving us new hope in the face of energy shortages.

[0003] The hole transport layer is a key functional layer in perovskite solar cells, used to block electrons and enhance hole transport. Hole transport materials are mainly classified into inorganic, organic, and polymeric hole transport materials. Among them, organic hole transport materials have great application prospects due to the abundance of organic groups and the ability to obtain target molecules with desired structures through artificially designed synthetic routes. However, the use of organic hole transport materials can easily affect the long-term stability of the photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite cells, and the poor long-term stability of perovskite cells is a major bottleneck affecting their further commercialization.

It demonstrates excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency, which remains stable over a long period, overcoming a major bottleneck for the further commercialization of perovskite solar cells.

[0022] Meanwhile, the hole transport material of this application is composed of lightweight, flexible, and environmentally friendly small organic molecules, suitable for a wide variety of organic solvents, exhibiting excellent solubility and film-forming properties, i.e., good solution processability. Furthermore, when using the hole transport material of this application to prepare inverted perovskite solar cells, a perovskite absorber layer is formed on the hole transport layer, which promotes the crystallization and growth of perovskite, resulting in a perovskite absorber layer with relatively uniform crystal size, large grain size, and tight packing, without obvious boundary defects. This is suitable for the preparation of large-area inverted perovskite solar cells. Attached Figure Description

The solvent was toluene, ethanol, and water (volume ratio 2:1:1). The reaction was carried out at 85 °C for 6 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was extracted with saturated sodium chloride solution and dichloromethane. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and distilled under reduced pressure. Finally, the mixture was purified by column chromatography (PE:DCM = 6:1) to obtain 0.95 g of compound 1-c, with a yield of 67%.

[0093] The specific synthetic steps of compound 1-d were as follows: Compound 1-c (1.9 g, 3 mmol) and 30 mL of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran were weighed and added to a 100 mL double-necked flask. The mixture was pumped three times using a double-row tube and placed at -78 °C. 2.65 mL of n-butyllithium (6.62 mmol) was slowly added to a constant pressure burette and then very slowly added dropwise to the reaction system. The reaction was carried out at low temperature (-78 °C) for 30 minutes, followed by a reaction at room temperature for 40 minutes. The mixture was then placed at -78 °C again, and trimethyltin chloride (1 M / THF, 5 mL, 5 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at low temperature (-78 °C) for 10 minutes, followed by a reaction at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction was terminated by adding 100 mL of deionized water. The mixture was extracted three times with diethyl ether, and the organic phases were combined. The crude product was finally purified by column chromatography (PE:DCM = 10:1) to obtain compound 1-d (1.1 g, yield 52%).

[0100] Example 3

[0101] Perovskite solar cells were fabricated using the compound of formula I-1 prepared in Example 1 and the compound of formula I-2 prepared in Example 2 as hole transport materials, respectively, following the steps below:

[0102] (1) Cleaning: The ITO glass slide was ultrasonically cleaned with deionized water, acetone and ethanol for 15 minutes in sequence. Then, the residual solvent on the surface of the ITO glass slide was dried with an N2 gas gun. After that, oxygen plasma treatment was performed for 15 minutes. Then, the ITO glass slide was transferred to a nitrogen glove box.

[0103] (2) Preparation of hole transport layer: Weigh 10 mg of compound I-1 or compound I-2 and dissolve it completely in 1 mL of chlorobenzene solution. Take an appropriate amount of solution and drop it evenly onto the ITO glass substrate. Spin coat at 5000 rpm for 20 seconds, and then anneal at 100℃ for 10 minutes.

[0104] (3) Preparation of the perovskite absorber layer: The ITO / hole transport layer substrate obtained above was cooled to room temperature, preheated at 130°C for 5 minutes, and 50 μL of perovskite solution was spread evenly on the ITO / hole transport layer substrate. It was then spin-coated at 5000 rpm for 20 seconds and annealed at 100°C for 10 minutes to prepare the perovskite absorber layer. The perovskite solution was prepared by mixing 3-fluorobenzylammonium iodide (3FBAI), methylammonium chloride (MACI), and lead iodide (PbI2) in a mixed solvent of DMF and DMSO at a mass ratio of 2.2:3.5:4 (the volume ratio of DMF to DMSO was 4:1).

[0105] Figure 4 This is a front-view SEM image of the perovskite absorber layer prepared on a hole transport layer using the compound of formula I-2 as the hole transport material. Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional SEM image of a perovskite absorber layer fabricated on a hole transport layer prepared using the compound of formula I-2 as the hole transport material. Figure 4 and Figure 5 It can be seen that the perovskite thin film grown based on the hole transport layer has relatively uniform crystal size and large grain size, and the grains are closely packed with no obvious boundary defects. This illustrates that the compound of formula I-2, as a hole transport material, can promote the crystallization and growth of perovskite thin films during the fabrication of perovskite solar cells. It can also effectively and completely cover the hole transport layer, suppressing severe charge recombination defects caused by direct contact between the electron transport layer and the hole transport layer, thus contributing to the improvement of photovoltaic efficiency in perovskite solar cells.

[0106] (4) Preparation of electron transport layer: Cool the ITO / hole transport layer / perovskite absorber layer substrate obtained above to room temperature, prepare PC61BM into a 15 mg / mL solution, then take 40 μL of PC61BM solution to cover the ITO / hole transport layer / perovskite absorber layer substrate, spin coat at 1000 rpm for 30~50 seconds, and anneal at 90℃ for 10 minutes.

[0107] (5) Electrode preparation: The above-mentioned substrate is placed in a vacuum evaporation chamber, and Cr (6nm) and Au (80nm) are deposited on the PC61BM layer respectively to obtain the desired inverse quasi-two-dimensional perovskite solar cell.

[0115] Project 3: Testing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells containing compounds I-1 and I-2 from Example 3. The method was as follows: 25°C, one atmosphere, under standard simulated sunlight (AM 1.5G, 100 milliwatts per square centimeter (mW / cm²)). 2 Under irradiation, the battery performance was tested to obtain the IV curve (volt-ampere characteristic curve). Based on the IV curve and the data fed back by the testing equipment (four-channel digital source meter, Keithley 2450), the short-circuit current density Jsc (unit: milliampere / cm²) can be obtained. 2 The open-circuit voltage Voc (in volts (V)) is calculated using the formula FF = Jsc × Voc / (Jmpp × Vmpp), and the results are shown in Table 3. The fill factor FF of the battery can be calculated using the formula PCE = Jsc × Voc × FF / Pw, and the results are shown in Table 3. Pw represents the input power in milliwatts (mW), and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0116] Project 4: Testing the stability of the perovskite solar cells containing compounds I-1 and I-2 from Example 3. The method was as follows: After storing the encapsulated perovskite solar cells at 25°C and 30% relative humidity for 1000 hours, their photoelectric conversion efficiency was tested according to Project 3. The stability results are shown in Table 3.
