The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of laboratory-scale single-junction perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has exceeded 27%, approaching the efficiency record of current crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells. In theory, all single-junction solar cells are constrained by the theoretical efficiency limit of the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) limit, while perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells achieve higher photoelectric conversion efficiency than single-junction solar cells by better utilizing the energy of short-wavelength photons in the solar spectrum.

This helps to reduce the inherent stress accumulation of polycrystalline thin films, suppress harmful interlayer reactions, and thus improve the chemical stability and photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells. Simultaneously, because the functional layer 208 is in contact with the perovskite active material layer 203, the introduction of polymers into the perovskite active material layer 203 allows the carboxyl groups and other functional layers to react with the divalent lead ions (Pb) in the perovskite active material. 2+ Establishes a coordination bond with formamidinium ions (FA). + When organic cations form hydrogen bonds and anchor points, they can generate local strain modulation, thereby stabilizing the crystal structure of perovskite and reducing stress accumulation.

[0146]
[0147] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0148] In the method for preparing the perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cell provided in this application, the nucleation and crystallization process of the perovskite crystal is effectively regulated by introducing specific first and / or second polymeric monomers during the preparation of the perovskite active layer. First, monomer solutions and perovskite precursor solutions are prepared separately; then, they are mixed with the perovskite precursor solution to obtain a mixed solution; in step S3, coating is performed under ultraviolet light irradiation. During this process, the first and / or second polymeric monomers undergo in-situ polymerization to form a three-dimensional (3D) cross-linked network structure. After coating with an anti-solvent and annealing, the perovskite active material is obtained. In this process, the perovskite active material is encapsulated within the three-dimensional cross-linked network structure, thus forming a composite of a polymer with a three-dimensional framework structure and the perovskite active material. The introduction of this three-dimensional framework structure polymer plays a crucial role in the perovskite nucleation and crystallization process.
[0149] In this application, a composite of a polymer with a three-dimensional framework structure and a perovskite active material is used as the perovskite active material layer 203. The polymer has a three-dimensional (3D) network structure, which can provide physical confinement, restrict the free growth of perovskite crystals, and promote the orderly arrangement of crystals along a specific direction. This avoids the increase in grain boundaries and lattice distortion caused by disordered growth, effectively suppressing the lattice distortion of perovskite, thereby stabilizing the crystal structure of perovskite and improving the chemical stability and photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells.
[0150] By employing the first and / or second polymeric monomers with the specific chemical structures described above, a polymer with a rigid-flexible three-dimensional framework structure can be formed, reducing stress accumulation, regulating the lattice distortion of the perovskite, and thus improving the structural stability of the perovskite. Furthermore, compared to other ranges, limiting the weight-average molecular weight of polyacrylate and / or polyenol ether to the above range is beneficial for improving the conductivity of the perovskite active material layer 203, resulting in lower crosstalk resistance (Rs).
