Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of photovoltaic technology, specifically relating to a perovskite tandem solar cell and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Perovskite tandem solar cells have become a research hotspot in the photovoltaic field due to their excellent photoelectric conversion performance. This high efficiency is mainly attributed to the broad spectral absorption capacity of perovskite materials in the visible light range and their efficient transport characteristics for photogenerated carriers. Furthermore, perovskite tandem solar cells are diverse, classified according to their device structure into mesoporous and planar (nip and pin structures), providing multiple avenues for optimizing cell performance. In recent years, researchers have further improved the stability and efficiency of perovskite tandem solar cells through techniques such as passivation engineering, additive engineering, and interface modification. However, despite significant progress in laboratory applications, perovskite tandem solar cells still face many challenges in practical applications, particularly regarding environmental stability.
[0003] In perovskite / heterojunction solar cells, perovskite materials or heterojunction layers are prone to generating defect states (such as I vacancies, Pb vacancies) under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. 2+ Ion migration leads to a decrease in photoelectric conversion efficiency (UVID problem), which is one of the key factors limiting the long-term stability of perovskite tandem solar cells.
[0004] Therefore, how to effectively suppress the effects of ultraviolet radiation on perovskite tandem solar cells has become an important research topic. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a perovskite tandem solar cell and its preparation method.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a perovskite tandem solar cell, comprising a bottom cell and a top cell disposed on the bottom cell, the top cell comprising, from bottom to top, a hole transport layer, a perovskite layer, an interface modification layer, an electron transport layer and a top electrode, wherein: The interface modification layer is an organic material coating of nano-metal oxide particles.
[0007] In this invention: The interface modification layer has an absorption rate of ≥95% for ultraviolet light, such as 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, etc., preferably 95-99%; The interface modification layer has a conversion rate of ≥75% for ultraviolet light to visible light, such as 75%, 78%, 80%, 82%, 85%, 88%, 90%, etc., preferably 75-90%; The haze value of the interface modification layer is ≥45%, such as 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, etc., preferably 45-85%.
[0008] This invention, by introducing an interface modification layer into the stacked battery, has the following advantages: i. The present invention relates to a tandem battery, wherein an interface modification layer is disposed between the perovskite layer and the electron transport layer. The interface modification layer has an absorption rate of 95% or higher for ultraviolet light (wavelength 300-400 nm), thus effectively avoiding the influence of ultraviolet light on the perovskite layer. ii. The nano-metal oxide particles in the interface modification layer of the present invention can absorb harmful ultraviolet light and convert it into visible light or heat energy. The conversion rate of ultraviolet light to visible light (wavelength of 400-700 nm) can reach 75% or more, which can reduce the destructive effect of ultraviolet light on the perovskite layer. iii. The interface modification layer of the present invention forms an organic material coating layer on the surface of nano-metal oxide particles. On the one hand, the organic material has good flexibility and film-forming properties. When it is coated on the surface of nano-metal oxide particles, it can avoid the influence of environmental factors on the nano-metal oxide particles. On the other hand, the combination of organic material and nano-metal oxide particles can significantly enhance the absorption and conversion ability of the interface modification layer to ultraviolet light and improve the stability of the interface modification layer. iv. Functional groups in organic materials (such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups) can not only form chemical bonds with the surface of nano-metal oxide particles, but also may form chemical bonds with the electron transport layer and perovskite layer, optimizing interfacial contact and promoting the transport of photogenerated carriers. Therefore, by introducing an interface modification layer into the tandem battery, the present invention can avoid the influence of ultraviolet light on the perovskite layer without affecting the electron extraction efficiency, and can also optimize the interface contact and promote the transport of photogenerated carriers.
[0009] In this invention, the method for testing the absorption rate of ultraviolet light by the interface modification layer is a UV-Vis spectrophotometer; the method for testing the conversion rate of ultraviolet light to visible light by the interface modification layer is a photoluminescence spectrometer; and the method for testing the haze value of the interface modification layer is a haze meter or a spectrophotometer (equipped with an integrating sphere).
[0010] In this invention, if the haze value is too low, the interface modification layer is too transparent and flat, and the incident light mainly passes through in a direct manner, failing to form effective diffuse reflection and total reflection within the perovskite layer, i.e., light capture fails, and the problem of insufficient absorption of the perovskite layer in the long wavelength region cannot be solved, resulting in a lack of significant improvement in the short-circuit current density (Jsc) of the battery. If the haze value is too high, it leads to transmittance and electrical loss, and the overall transmittance decreases (a large amount of light is reflected back into the air or lost through lateral scattering). At the same time, excessively high haze often means that the concentration of nanoparticles is too high or that they have agglomerated, which will seriously damage the continuity of the interface modification layer, increase the series resistance (Rs) of the device, cause a significant decrease in the fill factor (FF), and even cause poor contact between the top electrode and the lower layer.
[0011] Preferably, the light scattering cross-section value of the interface modification layer is ≥1.5×10⁻⁶. -10 cm 2 For example, 1.5 × 10 -10 cm 2 2×10 -10 cm 2 2.5×10 -10 cm 2 3×10 -10 cm 2 The preferred value is 1.5 × 10⁻⁶. -10 -3×10 -10 cm 2 .
[0012] Preferably, the effective optical path length extension factor of the interface modification layer is ≥1.15, such as 1.15, 1.2, 1.25, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, etc., and more preferably 1.15-1.8.
[0013] Furthermore, the interface modification layer introduced in this invention constructs a highly efficient light scattering grid. This light scattering grid enables incident light to undergo multiple diffuse and total reflections after entering the perovskite active layer, effectively extending the effective optical path of photons, compensating for the low absorption coefficient of the perovskite layer in the long wavelength region, and enhancing the light absorption efficiency.
[0014] In this invention, the light scattering cross section value is tested using a dynamic light scattering instrument and a UV-Vis spectrophotometer; the effective optical path length extension factor is tested using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer (equipped with an integrating sphere) and a thin film thickness gauge.
[0015] If the light scattering cross-section is too small, meaning the nanoparticle size is too small (close to the molecular level) or the refractive index difference between the particles and the organic matrix is extremely small, then the nanoparticles cannot act as effective "light scattering centers," and the modified layer, acting as an "ordinary transparent polymer film," loses its light-trapping function, i.e., the scattering center fails. If the light scattering cross-section is 3 × 10⁻⁶, then the nanoparticles cannot act as effective "light scattering centers," and the modified layer, acting as an "ordinary transparent polymer film," loses its light-trapping function; in other words, the scattering center fails.-10 cm 2 The large particle size of the nano-metal oxide particles results in a rougher surface of the modified layer, which easily introduces grain boundary defects and pores, forming non-radiative recombination centers and lowering the open-circuit voltage (Voc).
[0016] If the effective optical path length extension factor is too small, it indicates that the light travels almost "straight in and out" in the active layer. A small optical path gain usually cannot be converted into a detectable increase in photocurrent (it will be masked by experimental errors), meaning the interface modification layer is an "ineffective" modification layer. If the effective optical path length extension factor is above 1.8, it indicates that the light is "trapped" in the battery for a longer time. Although this increases the probability of perovskite absorption, it may also be absorbed by the inactive layer and converted into heat energy, potentially leading to a decrease in collection efficiency.
[0017] Preferably, the organic material comprises an alkenyl polymer, more preferably comprising polyacrylic acid materials and / or polyenol materials, and more preferably a combination of polyacrylic acid materials and polyenol materials, wherein the polyacrylic acid material comprises polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and the polyenol material comprises polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), preferably a combination of polymethyl methacrylate and polyvinyl alcohol.
[0018] The present invention preferably uses PMMA and / or PVA, which has the following advantages: i. PMMA contains a large number of ester groups in its molecular chain, which endows the material with good flexibility and film-forming properties. The good flexibility enables it to effectively encapsulate nano-metal oxide particles and reduce the influence of external environmental factors on the nano-metal oxide particles. At the same time, its film-forming properties help to form a uniform interface modification layer and improve the overall stability of the interface modification layer. Its high transparency and optical properties help to enhance the ability of nano-metal oxide particles to absorb and convert ultraviolet light. Furthermore, the introduction of PMMA can also significantly improve the surface hardness of the interface modification layer. Therefore, by introducing PMMA, this invention enables the interface modification layer to have excellent stability and excellent ultraviolet light absorption and conversion capabilities. ii. The PVA molecular structure contains a large number of hydroxyl functional groups, which can interact with the active sites on the surface of nano-metal oxide particles, thereby promoting interfacial bonding between the two and increasing the dispersion uniformity of the nano-metal oxide particles. At the same time, the large number of hydroxyl functional groups can also endow PVA with excellent hydrophilicity and film-forming properties. Excellent hydrophilicity makes it easy to mix with other functional materials to prepare slurries, while excellent film-forming properties can effectively encapsulate nano-metal oxide particles, isolate them from environmental factors such as oxygen and moisture, and significantly improve the long-term stability of the material. Moreover, the hydrogen bonding effect of PVA can also increase the dispersibility of PVA and the mechanical strength of the film after formation. Therefore, by introducing PVA, this invention can also make the interface modification layer have excellent stability and excellent ultraviolet light absorption and conversion capabilities.
[0019] Furthermore, the present invention preferably introduces PMMA and PVA simultaneously, which work together to synergistically enhance the interface modification layer with the nano-metal oxide particles, thereby giving the interface modification layer a better application effect.
[0020] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polyacrylic acid material to the polyvinyl alcohol material is 1:(0.3-3), and more preferably, the mass ratio of the polymethyl methacrylate to polyvinyl alcohol is 1:(0.3-3), such as 1:0.3, 1:0.4, 1:0.5, 1:0.8, 1:1, 1:1.2, 1:1.5, 1:1.8, 1:2, 1:2.2, 1:2.5, 1:2.8, 1:3, etc.
[0021] Preferably, the average molecular weight of the polymethyl methacrylate is 50,000-500,000, such as 50,000, 60,000, 80,000, 100,000, 200,000, 300,000, 400,000, 500,000, etc.
[0022] Preferably, the average molecular weight of the polyvinyl alcohol is 31,000-50,000, such as 31,000, 35,000, 38,000, 40,000, 42,000, 45,000, 48,000, 50,000, etc.
[0023] Preferably, the nano-metal oxide particles include any one or a combination of at least two of nano-zinc oxide, cerium oxide, or iron oxide, with nano-zinc oxide being the most preferred.

[0025] In this invention, if the particle size of the nano-metal oxide particles is large, it will affect the formation of the interface modification layer.
[0026] The particle size D50 of the nano-metal oxide particles described in this invention is tested by laser particle size analysis or transmission electron microscopy.
[0027] Preferably, the mass ratio of the organic material to the nano-metal oxide particles is 1:(0.5-7), such as 1:0.5, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7, etc., and preferably 1:(0.5-1).

[0029] If the interface modification layer is too thin, it cannot completely cover the perovskite layer, resulting in the inability to achieve excellent ultraviolet light absorption and conversion effects; if the interface modification layer is too thick, it will hinder carrier transport (resistance increases sharply) and generate additional parasitic absorption, reducing current output.
[0030] The thickness of the interface modification layer described in this invention is tested using SEM electron microscopy.
[0031] Preferably, the electron transport layer is a C60 electron transport layer.
[0032] When the electron transport layer is a C60 electron transport layer, the interface modification layer described in this invention has better compatibility with other layers of the perovskite tandem solar cell. It can match the electron transport layer (C60) and the perovskite layer, avoiding charge accumulation and nonradiative recombination caused by energy level shift at the interface.
[0033] Meanwhile, the interface modification layer provided by the present invention has excellent chemical stability. It will not decompose or decomposes very little under long-term light and high temperature conditions, which can avoid the decomposition products from causing corrosion and other effects on the perovskite layer.

[0037] Preferably, the method for preparing the slurry includes: The organic material is dissolved in a solvent to obtain solution A. The nano-metal oxide particles are dispersed in the same solvent to obtain dispersion B.

[0038] Preferably, the coating method includes spin coating; the coating (spin coating) is carried out in a nitrogen-protected glove box to avoid adverse effects of oxygen and moisture in the air on the film quality.
[0039] Preferably, the method for preparing the interface modification layer specifically includes: A slurry is prepared, and the mixed solution is evenly spread on the surface of the perovskite layer by spin coating. After annealing and curing, the interface modification layer is obtained.
[0040] Preferably, the spin coating rate is 4000-5000 rpm, such as 4000 rpm, 4200 rpm, 4500 rpm, 4600 rpm, 4800 rpm, 5000 rpm, etc., and the time is 30-40 s, such as 30 s, 32 s, 35 s, 36 s, 38 s, 40 s, etc.
[0041] Preferably, the annealing and curing temperature is 90-100℃, such as 90℃, 92℃, 95℃, 96℃, 98℃, 100℃, etc., and the time is 10-15 min, such as 10 min, 11 min, 12 min, 13 min, 14 min, 15 min, etc. In this invention, annealing and curing can remove residual solvents and enhance the adhesion of the film.

[0076] Performance Test - 1 The performance of the interface modification layer in the perovskite tandem solar cells provided in the examples and comparative examples was tested, and the results are as follows: Table 1 As demonstrated by the embodiments and performance tests, the interface modification layer provided by the present invention has an extremely high absorption rate of ultraviolet light, which can avoid the influence of ultraviolet light on the perovskite layer. At the same time, the absorbed ultraviolet light can be converted into visible light or heat energy, with a conversion rate of over 75% for visible light, thereby improving the light absorption efficiency of the tandem solar cell. In addition, the interface modification layer provided by the present invention has excellent light scattering characteristics, which can redirect some of the incident light to the active layer, thereby further enhancing the light absorption efficiency.
[0077] Performance Test - 2 Performance tests were conducted on the perovskite tandem solar cells provided in the examples and comparative examples under the following conditions: AM1.5, 1000 W / m 2 At 25±2℃, the test results are as follows: Table 2 As can be seen from the embodiments and performance tests, the interface modification layer provided by the present invention can not only improve the UVID resistance of the battery, but also have a positive impact on its photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0078] As can be seen from the comparison of Examples 1-6, the ratio of the interface modification layer has a significant impact on the ultraviolet light absorption efficiency, the compatibility of other layers, and the overall device performance. First, the ratio of organic materials to ZnO nanoparticles directly determines the ultraviolet light absorption capacity of the interface modification layer. When the copolymer content is high, although the ultraviolet light absorption capacity is enhanced, it may lead to a decrease in the conductivity of the interface modification layer, thereby affecting the charge transport efficiency. When the ZnO nanoparticle content is too high, the uniformity of the film may be reduced due to particle agglomeration, and even interface defects may be caused. Therefore, the present invention preferably uses a mass ratio of organic materials to nano-metal oxide particles of 1:(0.5-1) to ensure that the interface modification layer can guarantee the ultraviolet light absorption performance without negatively affecting other functional layers of the battery.
[0079] A comparison of Examples 9-10 and Examples 11-12 shows that when the thickness of the interface modification layer is within the range defined by the present invention, it can improve the UVID resistance and photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.
[0080] A comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that in Comparative Example 1, the initial PCE without the interface modification layer was 31.35%, while in Example 1, the initial PCE increased to over 32% after the modification layer was introduced. This comparison indicates that the improved battery efficiency is mainly attributed to the passivation effect of the interface modification layer on interface defects and the optimization of electron transport performance. Specifically, the functional groups in the interface modification layer can form chemical bonds with uncoordinated lead ions on the perovskite layer surface through Lewis acid-base interactions, effectively reducing non-radiative recombination losses at the interface. Furthermore, the organic material modification layer doped with ZnO nanoparticles exhibits excellent light scattering properties, redirecting some incident light to the active layer, thereby enhancing light absorption efficiency. Comparison with other data reveals that the short-circuit current density (Jsc) and fill factor (FF) of the interface modification layer sample are both improved, further verifying the improving effect of the interface modification layer on the overall battery performance.
[0081] Meanwhile, a comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that the present invention, by introducing an interface modification layer, can significantly improve the UVID resistance of the perovskite tandem solar cell. In Comparative Example 1, after 1000 hours of continuous illumination, its photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) only maintained about 70% of the original efficiency, while Example 1, by introducing an interface modification layer, showed only less than 10% efficiency decay. This indicates that the modification layer can effectively absorb and convert harmful ultraviolet light, thereby reducing direct damage to the perovskite layer.
