[0097] Q is selected from one or both of the following: oxyacid groups and oxyacid derivative groups.
[0098] Among them, solar cell 100 refers to a device that converts light energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect.
[0099] The light-absorbing layer 10 is the core component of the solar cell 100. It is used to absorb the photon energy of sunlight, generate electron-hole pairs, and under the action of the built-in electric field, separate the electron-hole pairs into free electrons and holes. The holes and electrons are collected by two different electrodes, and the two electrodes are connected to form a circuit to generate photocurrent.
[0100] The hole transport layer 20 is a functional layer for extracting and transporting photogenerated holes generated by the light absorption layer 10. In some embodiments, the hole transport layer 20 can be directly disposed on one side surface of the light absorption layer 10. In some embodiments, a passivation functional layer can also be disposed between the hole transport layer 20 and the light absorption layer 10.
[0101] Hole transport materials are used to extract and transport photogenerated hole carriers. In some embodiments, the hole transport layer 20 can be a single-functional layer, which can be formed from one hole transport material or from a mixture of two or more hole transport materials. In some embodiments, the hole transport layer 20 is formed from two or more functional layers, and the hole transport material design scheme of each single-functional layer of the functional stack can be designed independently to flexibly design the hole transport layer 20 according to the product's functional requirements.

[0105] The terminal groups (Ar) of the self-assembled hole transport material of this application contain several benzo[a]aromatic rings and / or benzo[b]heteroaromatic ring structures. Compared with terminal groups without benzo[a]aromatic rings or benzo[b]heteroaromatic ring structures, this expands the conjugation range of the terminal groups (Ar), improves the hole transport capability of the self-assembled hole transport material, and is beneficial to improving the hole transport rate in the hole transport layer 20, thereby improving the cell performance of the solar cell 100.

A heteroaromatic ring is an unsaturated cyclic compound in which the atoms constituting the ring system include atoms of other elements besides carbon, such as one or more of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen.
[0106] The intermediate group [(L)] in the self-assembled hole transport material of this application m Located between the terminal group (Ar) and the head group (Q), it is beneficial to cooperate with the terminal group (Ar) and the head group (Q) to regulate the dipole moment and / or conjugation range and / or the degree of freedom of the head group (Q) of the self-assembled hole transport material, so as to regulate the hole transport capability and / or solubility of the self-assembled hole transport material and improve the cell performance of the solar cell 100.
[0107] Oxyacid groups are groups formed by removing several hydrogen atoms from an acid whose anion contains an oxygen atom. Oxyacid derivative groups are new compounds containing the oxyacid group or a portion thereof, generated through a chemical reaction. Oxyacid derivative groups retain the basic structural characteristics of the oxyacid group, but their overall chemical properties may differ due to structural changes. Oxyacid groups and / or oxyacid derivative groups have good anchoring effects on the substrate surface, which is beneficial for promoting the hole transport capability of self-assembled hole transport materials.

In some embodiments, the halogen group may include one or more of -F (fluorine), -Cl (chlorine), -Br (bromine), and -I (iodine). A phenyl group is a group with a benzene ring as its functional group. A thiophene group is the portion remaining after a five-membered heterocyclic compound (with sulfur as the heteroatom) loses one atom or a group of atoms. An alkyl group is a hydrocarbon group formed by removing one hydrogen atom from an alkane molecule.
[0109] The embodiments of this application expand the conjugation range of the self-assembled hole transport material by introducing benzo[a]aryl ring and / or benzo[b]aryl heterocyclic ring structures into the self-assembled hole transport material, thereby improving the hole transport capability of the self-assembled hole transport material. This is beneficial for increasing the hole transport rate in the hole transport layer 20 and improving the cell performance of the solar cell 100.
[0110] In some embodiments, the cyclic subunit includes one or more of cycloalkyl subunits, aromatic subunits, and heteroaromatic subunits.
[0111] Cycloalkyl subunits are groups formed by eliminating a hydrogen atom from a saturated carbon cyclic group. Aromatic subunits are groups formed by eliminating a hydrogen atom from an unsaturated cyclic group, where the ring system is composed of carbon atoms. Heteroaromatic subunits are groups formed by eliminating a hydrogen atom from an unsaturated cyclic group, where the ring system includes atoms of other elements besides carbon, such as one or more of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen.
[0112] The embodiments of this application improve the conjugation range of the self-assembled hole transport material by including the above-mentioned self-assembled hole transport material with cyclic subunit intermediate groups, thereby improving the hole transport capability of the self-assembled hole transport material and thus improving the cell performance of the solar cell 100.

That is, the first hole transport layer 21 is directly formed on the surface of the FTO glass treated in step (1). The precursor liquid and preparation parameters used to form the first hole transport layer 21 are the same as those in Example 1.

That is, after the second hole transport layer 22 is formed on the surface of the FTO glass treated in step (1), the step of forming the first hole transport layer 21 on the surface of the second hole transport layer 22 is no longer performed, and the second hole transport layer 22 serves as the hole transport layer 20.
[0233] Comparative Example 2: The fabrication process of solar cell 100 is basically the same as that of Example 1, except that SAM1 in Example 1 is replaced with SAM7. The structural formula of SAM7 is...
[0234] Battery performance test:
[0235] (1) The initial photoelectric conversion efficiency and the photoelectric conversion efficiency on the 30th day of the solar cells 100 formed in each embodiment and comparative example were tested, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0236] The test was conducted according to the IEC61215 standard. Using the Guangyan solar simulator, the light intensity was corrected by using a crystalline silicon solar cell to achieve a solar intensity (solar energy test standard is AM1.5). The solar cell 100 was connected to a digital source meter, and its current-voltage characteristic curve was measured under illumination. The initial photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100 was obtained based on the current-voltage characteristic curve.
[0237] The solar cell 100 was then stored in a nitrogen dark state for 30 days, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100 on the 30th day was tested using the same initial photoelectric conversion efficiency test method described above.
[0238] Table 1. Performance test results of solar cells in each embodiment and comparative example.
[0239]
[0240] The results show that the solar cell 100 with self-assembled hole transport material provided in the embodiments of this application has significantly improved initial photoelectric conversion efficiency and photoelectric conversion efficiency on the 30th day compared with solar cell 100 without self-assembled hole transport material and solar cell 100 with other self-assembled hole transport materials. This indicates that the solution provided in the embodiments of this application can effectively improve the battery performance of solar cell 100.
