Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of optoelectronic device technology, specifically to tandem solar cells and their fabrication methods, and photovoltaic modules. Background Technology
[0002] Single-junction solar cells are limited by the Shockley-Queisser efficiency limit, creating an inherent bottleneck in improving photoelectric conversion performance. Tandem solar cells, by stacking sub-cells with different bandgap sizes in series, can utilize the full solar spectrum in a segmented manner, reducing energy loss of photogenerated carriers and thus overcoming the efficiency bottleneck of single-junction solar cells. In particular, introducing a pyramidal textured surface structure into tandem solar cells can suppress interface light reflection, enhance light-harvesting capabilities, and significantly improve the device's light absorption efficiency.
[0003] Perovskite solar cells possess advantages such as tunable bandgap, high light absorption coefficient, low-temperature fabrication capability, and excellent spectral matching performance with various bottom solar cells, making them the preferred choice for top solar cells. Currently, mainstream technologies use crystalline silicon bottom solar cells with a pyramidal textured surface as a substrate to fabricate perovskite top solar cells. When using a two-step process to prepare the perovskite absorbing layer, an inorganic metal halide precursor is first coated / deposited to construct an inorganic metal halide framework on the pyramidal textured surface. Then, an organic precursor solution is coated onto the surface of the inorganic metal halide framework, followed by an annealing reaction to generate a complete perovskite absorbing layer.
[0004] However, this process has significant drawbacks: the pyramidal textured surface has obvious steric hindrance at the valley bottom, hindering the deep penetration of the organic precursor solution. This results in insufficient reaction between the inorganic metal halide precursor and the organic precursor at the valley bottom, leading to the formation of inorganic residual phases. Simultaneously, the difference in solvent drying rates between the peaks and valleys of the textured surface exacerbates the uneven crystallization of the perovskite film and the problem of residual inorganic metal halide precursors at the valley bottom. The residual inorganic metal halide precursors are prone to decomposition and induce interface defects, causing a decrease in the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the tandem solar cell and a deterioration in its long-term operational stability.

Detailed Implementation
[0053] The following detailed description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a more complete and clear account of the tandem solar cell 10, its fabrication method, and the photovoltaic module. This application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this application.
[0054] Perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem solar cells represent a crucial technological approach to overcoming the theoretical efficiency limits of single-junction cells and achieving high-efficiency photovoltaic devices. Their photoelectric performance is closely related to the control of the surface morphology of the crystalline silicon substrate. The crystalline silicon substrate comprises a silicon substrate, which is texturized to form a pyramidal three-dimensional morphology, enhancing light capture capabilities through multiple light reflections and scattering. Simultaneously, the pyramidal structure obtained by conformally shaping the crystalline silicon substrate can induce the directional crystallization of the perovskite light-absorbing layer, improving the uniformity of the thin film coverage. Therefore, crystalline silicon substrates with pyramidal structures are widely used in perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem solar cells.
[0055] Perovskite top solar cells often employ a two-step solution method to prepare the perovskite absorbing layer. This involves first depositing or coating a metal halide framework layer (e.g., lead halide, cesium halide), then coating it with an organic halide solution, followed by annealing to allow the organic halide to react with the metal halide and form perovskite. However, the valleys of the pyramidal textured surface exhibit significant steric hindrance, leading to insufficient penetration of the organic halide solution into the metal halide framework layer. After annealing, incomplete metal halide reaction occurs at the valleys of the pyramidal textured surface, resulting in the formation of metal halide residues, particularly lead halide. Furthermore, the inconsistent solvent evaporation rates between the valleys and the pyramidal slopes further exacerbate the uneven crystallization of the perovskite absorbing layer and the presence of localized metal halide residues.
[0056] Taking lead iodide (PbI2) residue as an example, the residual PbI2 enriched at the bottom of the pyramid structure is prone to decomposition under light and thermal stress, producing free iodide ions and uncoordinated lead ions. Free iodide ions are highly mobile and easily migrate along grain boundaries, corroding the transport layer and electrodes, forming deep-level non-radiative recombination centers; uncoordinated lead ions disrupt the integrity of the perovskite lattice, exacerbating ion migration and defect recombination. These problems significantly increase the interface defect density, hinder efficient charge transport, induce perovskite lattice distortion and phase separation, and severely degrade the photoelectric conversion efficiency and long-term operational stability of tandem solar cells, constraining the key technological bottleneck for improving the efficiency and industrial application of perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem solar cells.
[0057] Based on this, see Figure 1 In a first aspect, this application provides a tandem solar cell 10, comprising: a bottom cell 100 and a first charge transport layer 200 stacked together. The bottom cell 100 has a first textured structure, and the first charge transport layer 200 is disposed on the surface of the first textured structure to form a second textured structure, the second textured structure having valleys and peaks. A perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 is disposed on the side of the first charge transport layer 200 away from the bottom cell 100. A spacer layer 400 is disposed between the first charge transport layer 200 and the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and covers at least a portion of the valleys of the second textured structure.
[0058] The spacer layer 400 comprises a spacer material with a melting point of 90°C to 170°C. The spacer material includes at least one functional group selected from phosphonic acid, biguanide, and triazine groups. In this application, "phosphonic acid" refers to... "Biguanidin" refers to... "Triazine" refers to In this context, a single-bond-through-the-ring indicates that the single bond can connect to any site on the ring, and the connection site is not limited to one. Furthermore, "triazine" refers to... In this application, the "perovskite light-absorbing layer 300" covers the spacer layer 400 and the pyramid structure.
[0059] The tandem solar cell 10 provided in this application includes a spacer layer 400 disposed at the valley bottom of the second textured structure of the first charge transport layer 200. The spacer layer 400 comprises a material with a melting point of 90°C to 170°C and contains functional groups such as phosphonic acid groups, biguanide groups, and triazine groups. During the annealing of the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300, the spacer layer 400 in the valley bottom metal halide residue region melts and coats the unconverted metal halides at the valley bottom, inhibiting the decomposition of the metal halides. Simultaneously, the aforementioned functional groups can form coordination bonds with free halide anions or metal cations, effectively fixing easily migrating halide anions or metal cations, alleviating ion migration and grain boundary corrosion, and repairing perovskite lattice defects.
[0060] Furthermore, the aforementioned functional groups can coordinate with or form hydrogen bonds with defect sites such as oxygen vacancies and dangling bonds enriched at the valley bottom of the pyramid structure, effectively filling interface defects. Simultaneously, the material of the aforementioned barrier layer can prevent excessive contact between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the first charge transport layer 200, reducing interfacial stress and non-radiative charge recombination, achieving precise passivation of the valley bottom region, and reducing the density of interface defects. Moreover, the aforementioned spacer layer 400 exhibits good compatibility with the charge transport layer and the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300, which is beneficial for improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the tandem solar cell 10.
[0061] As an example, the spacer material includes at least one of the compounds having the structures shown in formulas (I) to (IV): , , , .
[0062] Where n1 is any integer between 1 and 6. For example, n1 includes, but is not limited to, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
[0063] X is F, Cl, Br, or I. n2 is any integer between 1 and 6. n2 includes, but is not limited to, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
[0064] Ar is C6~C12 Aromatic group. In this application, "aromatic group" refers to an aromatic hydrocarbon group derived from an aromatic ring compound by removing one hydrogen atom. It can be a monocyclic aryl, a fused-ring aryl, or a polycyclic aryl; for polycyclic rings, at least one is an aromatic ring system. Phrases containing this term include, for example, "C6-C6..." 12 "Aromatic group" refers to an aryl group containing 6 to 12 carbon atoms. Each time it appears, it can be independently a C6 aryl group, a C6 aryl group, or a C6 aryl group. 10 Aryl, C 12 Aryl group. Suitable examples include, but are not limited to: benzene, biphenyl, and naphthalene.
[0065] Each instance of R1 is independently a C6-C8 alkyl group. In this application, "alkyl" refers to a saturated hydrocarbon group containing a primary (normal) carbon atom, or a secondary carbon atom, or a tertiary carbon atom, or a quaternary carbon atom, or a combination thereof. Phrases containing this term, such as "C6-C8 alkyl," refer to alkyl groups containing 6-8 carbon atoms. Suitable examples include, but are not limited to, 1-hexyl (normal hexyl, -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3), 2-hexyl (-CH(CH3)CH2CH2CH2CH3), 3-hexyl (-CH(CH2CH3)(CH2CH2CH3)), 2-methyl-2-pentyl (-C(CH3)2CH2CH2CH3), 3-methyl-2-pentyl (-CH(CH3)CH(CH3)CH2CH3), and 4-methyl-2-pentyl (-CH(CH3)CH2 CH(CH3)2), 3-methyl-3-pentyl (-C(CH3)(CH2CH3)2), 2-methyl-3-pentyl (-CH(CH2CH3)CH(CH3)2), 2,3-dimethyl-2-butyl (-C(CH3)2CH(CH3)2), 3,3-dimethyl-2-butyl (-CH(CH3)C(CH3)3, octyl (-(CH2)7CH3) or 2-ethylhexyl (-CH2CH2(CH2CH3)CH2CH2CH2CH3).
[0066] The spacer layer 400 with structures of formulas (I) to (IV) provided in this application contains phosphonic acid group, biguanide group, and triazine group functional groups, respectively. Its molecular structure is controllable and its melting point is adapted to the annealing conditions of perovskite. After heating, it can accurately spread and coat residual metal halides at the bottom of the pyramid structure. At the same time, through coordination and binding of corresponding functional groups with free ions and lattice defect sites, it can efficiently fix easily migrating ions and passivate interface defects. It also has good compatibility with the interface of perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and charge transport layer, which can effectively suppress nonradiative recombination, relieve interface stress, and significantly improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and long-term working stability of perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem solar cell 10.
[0067] In some examples, n1 is any integer between 3 and 5. Further, n1 is either 3 or 5. As an example, n1 is 3, and the spacer material is 4-phosphonobutyric acid. As an example, n1 is 5, and the spacer material is 6-phosphonohexanoic acid. .
[0068] In some examples, X is Cl. n2 is any integer between 1 and 3. Further, n2 is 1. As an example, n2 is 1, and the spacer material is chloromethylphosphoric acid. .
[0069] In some of these examples, Ar is phenyl. As an example, the spacer material is 1-phenylbiguanide. .
[0070] In some of these examples, R1 is independently 2-ethylhexyl each time it appears. As an example, the spacer material is octyltriazinone. .
[0071] Furthermore, the spacer material includes 4-phosphonobutyric acid. 6-phosphonohexanoic acid chloromethylphosphoric acid 1-Phenylan Octyltriazinone At least one of the above. Furthermore, the spacer layer 400 with the above-mentioned specific structure has a melting point adapted to the perovskite annealing process, which can accurately coat the residual metal halide at the bottom of the valley; and can efficiently fix migrating ions and passivate interface defects.
[0072] Furthermore, the spacer layer 400 comprises a material with a melting point of 90°C to 150°C.
[0073] To ensure that the spacer layer 400 is concentrated in the valley region of the pyramid, effectively coating and passivating residual divalent metal halides without over-covering the pyramid protrusions, thus guaranteeing normal charge transport between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the charge transport layer, in some examples, the ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the texture depth of the second textured structure is 1:(80-100).
[0074] In this application, "thickness of spacer layer 400" refers to the vertical film thickness of spacer layer 400 itself, measured at the valley bottom of the second textured structure. "Textured depth of the second textured structure" refers to the vertical distance from the valley bottom to the peak of the second textured structure.
[0075] As an example, the ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the pile depth of the second pile structure includes, but is not limited to, 1:80, 1:82, 1:85, 1:88, 1:90, 1:92, 1:95, 1:98 or 1:100, or any two of the above point values as endpoint values within the range.
[0076] In some of these examples, the first charge transport layer 200 is a hole transport layer. The hole transport layer comprises a self-assembled monolayer 210.
[0077] As an example, the material of the self-assembled monolayer 210 generally includes anchoring groups, alkyl bridges, and terminal groups. The alkyl bridges connect the anchoring groups and the terminal groups.
[0078] The anchoring group contains polar atoms such as oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur, and exists in the form of active functional groups such as phosphonic acid group (-PO(OH)2), carboxyl group (-COOH), hydroxyl group (-OH), and thiol group (-SH).
[0079] Terminal groups include carbazole, dibenzocarbazole, acridine, phenothiazine, or phenyl groups. These terminal groups have a conjugated structure, and their π-electron clouds can compensate for the charge of halogen vacancies in the perovskite absorbing layer 300, thereby filling the shallow energy level defects caused by halogen vacancies. Among these, the nitrogen atoms in nitrogen-containing terminal groups such as carbazole, dibenzocarbazole, acridine, and phenothiazine contain lone pairs of electrons, which can interact with uncoordinated divalent cations (e.g., lead ions, Pb) on the surface of the perovskite absorbing layer 300. 2+ This process forms coordination bonds, thereby passivating deep-level defects caused by uncoordinated divalent cations. Substituents can be further introduced onto the terminal group. These substituents can regulate the electron cloud density of the terminal group, enhancing its coordination strength with uncoordinated divalent cations and improving defect passivation efficiency. Simultaneously, the substituents can form coordination bonds with uncoordinated divalent cations on the surface of the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300, or occupy halogen vacancies through their own electronegativity and lone pair electrons, achieving charge compensation and space filling at defect sites, thus effectively suppressing grain boundary defects. Exemplarily, the substituents include at least one of halogen substituents, alkyl groups, alkoxy groups, benzene substituents, and bis(4-methoxyphenyl)amino groups.
[0080] Alkyl bridges are the "backbone" connecting anchor groups and terminal groups, and are typically composed of saturated carbon chains.

[0139] Understandably, the types of the aforementioned spacer materials are the same as those in the first aspect of this application, so they will not be described again here.
[0140] In steps S10 and S20, the structure and properties of the bottom battery 100 and the first charge transport layer 200 are the same as those in the first aspect of this application, so they will not be described again here.
[0141] In some examples, step S30, forming a spacer layer 400 that at least covers the valley bottoms of the second velvet structure, includes: applying a spacer material solution 410 to the surface of the second velvet structure and annealing to obtain a spacer layer 400 covering at least a portion of the valley bottoms of the second velvet structure. For example, the spacer material solution 410 comprises a spacer material and a solvent. The solvent includes at least one selected from ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, dimethylformamide, and dimethyl sulfoxide.
[0142] In some examples, the mass concentration of the spacer material in the spacer material solution 410 is from 1 mg / mL to 4 mg / mL. As examples, the mass concentration of the spacer material includes, but is not limited to, 1 mg / mL, 1.5 mg / mL, 1.8 mg / mL, 2 mg / mL, 2.5 mg / mL, 2.8 mg / mL, 3 mg / mL, 3.5 mg / mL, 3.8 mg / mL, or 4 mg / mL, or any two of the above values as endpoints. In some examples, the annealing temperature is greater than or equal to the melting point of the spacer material. For example, the annealing temperature is from 90°C to 170°C. Further, the annealing time is from 5 min to 20 min. Even further, the annealing temperature is from 90°C to 150°C.
[0143] In some of these examples, see Figure 2 In step S40, the step of forming a perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 on the side of the first charge transport layer 200 away from the bottom cell 100 includes:
[0144] S41. A metal halide solution is coated on the side of the first charge transport layer 200 away from the bottom cell 100 to obtain a metal halide framework layer 310. The metal halide framework layer 310 covers the spacer layer 400 and the part of the second textured structure not covered by the spacer layer 400.
[0145] S42. An organic halide solution is coated on the side of the metal halide framework layer 310 facing away from the first charge transport layer 200, and then annealed to obtain a perovskite light-absorbing layer 300.
[0146] Optionally, in step S41, the chemical formula of the metal halide in the metal halide solution includes at least one of AlX and BX. The chemical formula of the organic halide in the organic halide solution is A2X. Wherein, A1 includes at least one of cesium ions, rubidium ions, lithium ions, sodium ions, potassium ions, and thallium ions. A2 includes at least one of ammonium ions, methylamine ions, ethylammonium ions, dimethylamine ions, trimethylammonium ions, tetramethylammonium ions, formamidine ions, methylformamidine ions, ethylamidine ions, and guanidine ions. B includes at least one of lead ions, tin ions, and germanium ions. X includes at least one of bromide ions, iodide ions, and chloride ions.
[0147] Furthermore, step S40, forming the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 on the side of the first charge transport layer 200 away from the bottom cell 100, includes: vacuum evaporating AlX and BX on the side of the spacer layer 400 away from the first charge transport layer 200 to prepare a metal halide framework layer 310; wherein the evaporation rates of AlX and BX are each independently 0.01 nm / s to 0.3 nm / s. An organic halide solution is coated onto the surface of the metal halide framework layer 310 on the side opposite to the first charge transport layer 200 to form an organic halide wet film, followed by annealing to obtain the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300.
[0148] By precisely controlling the vacuum evaporation rate to prepare the metal halide framework layer 310, and combining it with the organic halide solution coating-annealing process, the perovskite composition and crystal quality can be precisely controlled. This, along with the spacer layer 400, reduces residual metal halides at the bottom of the valley, thereby improving the film uniformity and the photoelectric performance of the battery.
[0149] In some examples, the annealing temperature in step S42 is 90–170 °C. Further, the annealing temperature is 90 °C–150 °C. In some examples, the annealing temperature is greater than or equal to the melting point of the spacer material.
[0150] See Figure 2 In the preparation method provided in this application, in step S30, a schematic diagram of the second textured structure is shown below, where the spacer material solution 410 is coated onto the surface of the first charge transport layer 200. Figure 2 As shown in (a), annealing is performed. Since the annealing temperature matches the melting point of the spacer material, the spacer material melts and slides down to the bottom of the second textured surface valley. The corresponding structural diagram is shown below. Figure 2 As shown in (b). After annealing, the spacer material solidifies as the temperature decreases, resulting in spacer layer 400. In the subsequent step S40, a metal halide framework layer 310 is formed, and the corresponding structural diagram is shown below. Figure 2 As shown in (c), during the annealing process, when the metal halide reacts with the organic halide to form the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300, the spacer material melts and coats the incompletely converted metal halide at the bottom of the valley. After the annealing process is completed, a composite structure is formed in which the spacer layer 400 is located between the first charge transport layer 200 and the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and covers at least part of the valley bottom of the second textured structure. The corresponding structural schematic diagram is shown below. Figure 2 As shown in (d).
[0151] Because the melting point of the spacer material is compatible with the annealing temperature during the preparation of the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300, and because the spacer material has good thermal stability and chemical inertness, the spacer layer 400 exhibits excellent compatibility with the first charge transport layer 200 and the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300. During further annealing of the metal halide framework layer 310 and the organic halide wet film, the unreacted metal halides at the valley bottom of the second textured structure are coated by the molten spacer layer 400. The selection and placement of this spacer layer 400 prevents the decomposition of the valley bottom metal halides. Furthermore, the spacer layer 400 can coordinate and bond with free halide anions, lead ions, and other cations through phosphonate, biguanide, and triazine functional groups in its molecules, thereby fixing migrating ions, passivating valley bottom interface defects, inhibiting ion migration and grain boundary corrosion, and reducing non-radiative recombination. Simultaneously, it prevents excessive contact between the perovskite and the charge transport layer, alleviates interfacial stress, and improves the charge transport efficiency and long-term operational stability of the tandem solar cell.
[0152] Furthermore, the preparation method provided in this application is simple, highly operable, and suitable for large-scale industrial production, showing promising prospects for industrial application.

[0170] Example 2
[0171] Example 2 is basically the same as Example 1, the main difference being that the spacer material in step (3) of Example 2 is 4-phosphonobutyric acid. (Melting point approximately 127–129 °C) Replace 6-phosphonohexanoic acid in Example 1, and the temperature of the second annealing treatment in step (4) of Example 2 is 130 °C. The ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the texture depth of the second textured structure is 1:80.
[0172] Example 3
[0173] Example 3 is basically the same as Example 1, the main difference being that the spacer material in step (3) of Example 3 is 1-phenylbiguanide. (Melting point approximately 135–140 °C) Replace 6-phosphonohexanoic acid in Example 1, and the second annealing temperature in step (4) of Example 3 is 140 °C. The ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the texture depth of the second textured structure is 1:100.
[0174] Example 4
[0175] Example 4 is basically the same as Example 1, the main difference being that in step (3) of Example 4, the mass concentration of the spacer material in the spacer material solution 410 is 4 mg / mL. The ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the surface depth of the second textured structure is 1:50.
[0176] Comparative Example 1
[0177] Comparative Example 1 is basically the same as Example 1, except that Comparative Example 1 does not include step (3), and Comparative Example 1 directly prepares a perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 on the surface of the hole transport layer.
[0178] Comparative Example 2
[0179] Comparative Example 2 is basically the same as Example 1, the main difference being that the temperature of the first annealing treatment in step (3) of Comparative Example 2 is 60 °C. At this time, 6-phosphonohexanoic acid cannot melt and slide to the bottom of the second textured structure, but instead adheres to the peaks, sidewalls and bottoms of the second textured structure, making the effective contact area between the subsequently formed perovskite layer and the hole transport layer smaller.
[0180] Comparative Example 3
[0181] Comparative Example 3 is basically the same as Example 1, except that in step (3) of Comparative Example 3, 2-phenylethylamine hydroiodide is used to replace 6-phosphonohexanoic acid in Example 1. The melting point of phenylethylamine hydroiodide is about 267 °C. In the temperature environment of 100 °C in the first annealing treatment, phenylethylamine hydroiodide is difficult to melt and slide to the bottom of the second textured structure. Instead, it adheres to the peak, sidewall and bottom of the second textured structure, making the effective contact area between the perovskite layer and the hole transport layer formed later smaller. At the same time, it is difficult to melt at 150 °C in the second annealing treatment to effectively coat the unreacted PbI2.
[0182] In Example 1, the scanning electron microscope image of the hole transport layer surface with a second textured surface formed in step (2) is shown below. Figure 3 As shown in A and C. Example 1, after step (3) of curing the spacer layer 400, a scanning electron microscope image of the valley of the pyramid structure on the surface of the hole transport layer covered by the spacer layer 400 is shown below. Figure 3 As shown in b and d. From Figure 3 As can be seen from the comparison, in step (3) of this application, after the first annealing treatment, the spacer material can melt and slide to the bottom of the pyramid structure. As the first annealing ends, the spacer layer 400 is solid and covers the bottom of the pyramid.
[0183] The perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem solar cells 10 prepared in the above embodiments and comparative examples were subjected to efficiency tests and high-temperature and high-humidity aging tests (85°C, 85%RH) for 480 hours. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0184] Table 1
[0185]
[0186] In Comparative Example 1, no spacer layer 400 was introduced at the valley bottom of the second textured structure of the hole transport layer. In Comparative Example 2, the first annealing temperature was below 60 °C, and the spacer material could not melt and slide to the valley bottom of the second textured structure. At this time, the spacer material partially filled the valley bottom of the second textured structure and partially adhered to the sidewalls and peaks of the second textured structure. This resulted in insufficient effective contact area between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the second textured structure, increased interfacial series resistance, hindered carrier extraction, and intensified nonradiative recombination at the interface, leading to a significant decrease in the cell open-circuit voltage, fill factor, and photoelectric conversion efficiency. Comparative Example 3 used a high-melting-point material (2-phenylethylamine hydroiodate, melting point 267 °C) as the spacer material. During the first annealing treatment at 100 °C, the 2-phenylethylenediamine hydroiodate did not melt and slide to the bottom of the second textured structure. Therefore, it partially filled the bottom of the second textured structure and partially adhered to the sidewalls and peaks of the second textured structure. This also resulted in insufficient effective contact area between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the second textured structure, increased interfacial series resistance, hindered carrier extraction, and intensified non-radiative recombination at the interface, leading to a significant decrease in the cell's open-circuit voltage, fill factor, and photoelectric conversion efficiency. As shown in Table 1, Comparative Examples 1 to 3 could not effectively improve the cell efficiency. If the spacer material is not annealed at a temperature above its melting point to allow it to slide to the bottom of the second textured structure, the spacer material attached to the sidewalls and peaks of the second textured structure will fill the interface between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the hole transport layer. This will result in an insufficient contact area between the perovskite light-absorbing layer 300 and the second textured structure, hindering carrier transport, increasing the interface charge transfer resistance, raising the device series resistance, and significantly reducing the short-circuit current density and fill factor. Ultimately, this will lead to a decrease in the efficiency and performance degradation of the tandem solar cell 10.
[0187] In Examples 1 to 4 of this application, 6-phosphonohexanoic acid, 4-phosphonobutyric acid, and 1-phenylbiguanide were used as spacer layers 400, all of which improved device performance. Data from Examples 1 and 4 show that the optimal concentration of the spacer material solution 410 is approximately 2–3 mg / mL. In Example 4, the concentration of the spacer material solution 410 was 4 mg / mL, and the ratio of the thickness of the spacer layer 400 to the texture depth of the second textured structure was <1:80. This means that the spacer layer 400 accumulated slightly more at the valley bottom of the pyramid, affecting carrier transport and causing a decrease in open-circuit voltage increase, a slight decrease in short-circuit cell density and fill factor, resulting in a slightly lower overall cell efficiency improvement compared to Examples 1 to 3. Furthermore, if the concentration of the spacer material solution 410 is too low, the ratio of the spacer layer 400 to the texture depth of the second textured structure will be >1:100, meaning that the deposition of the spacer layer 400 at the valley bottom of the second textured structure is insufficient, leading to inadequate coating of residual metal halides, especially lead halides, and insufficient interface passivation.
[0188] The high temperature and high humidity aging test data in Table 1 further corroborate that the insulating spacer passivation layer 900 filled at the bottom of the second textured structure can isolate water and oxygen, bind mobile halogen anions, alleviate the decomposition and degradation of metal halides, and significantly improve the long-term service stability of perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells.

For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described.
