Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of photovoltaics, specifically relating to a perovskite thin film, a perovskite cell, a four-terminal stacked cell, a four-terminal stacked module, and a method for preparing the same. Background Technology
[0002] Solar energy, as a clean and renewable energy source, has received widespread attention from academia and industry. Perovskite materials, with their excellent photoelectric properties and low cost, are used as the light-absorbing layer in solar cells, forming perovskite solar cells (PSCs) that possess excellent photoelectric performance (the highest certified efficiency of single-junction perovskite solar cells has reached 26.88%), low cost, and simple processing. Perovskite solar cells have attracted considerable attention in the third generation of solar cells.
[0003] Furthermore, perovskite materials, due to their tunable bandgap, can be stacked with other photovoltaic materials with different bandgapes to form tandem solar cells, effectively improving photoelectric conversion efficiency. Depending on the connection method of the top and bottom cells, tandem solar cells are mainly divided into two-terminal and four-terminal tandem cells. For mechanically stacked four-terminal tandem cells, in addition to improving the efficiency of the top and bottom cells, the optical distribution of the top and bottom cells is also crucial to improving device efficiency. Therefore, how to rationally control the optical distribution of the four-terminal tandem cells to achieve optimal optical distribution is essential for improving the performance of four-terminal tandem solar cells.
[0004] Current research on optical distribution in four-terminal stacked perovskites primarily focuses on adjusting the bandgap of the perovskite material. However, while narrow-bandgap perovskite materials possess superior photoelectric conversion efficiency, their absorption spectra are quite similar to those of crystalline silicon bottom cells, resulting in less incident light and limiting the overall efficiency improvement of four-terminal stacked cells. Wide-bandgap perovskite materials, on the other hand, have absorption spectra biased towards shorter wavelengths, allowing more long-wavelength light to enter the crystalline silicon bottom cell, achieving better optical distribution. However, wide-bandgap perovskites themselves suffer from severe phase separation and difficult crystallization control, hindering the efficiency and stability improvement of perovskite top cells. Furthermore, four-terminal stacked modules require the fabrication of perovskite top cells over a large area, and a series of defects during the fabrication process of large-area perovskite films (thickness uniformity, crystallization uniformity, porosity, etc.) simultaneously restrict the cell quality of perovskite top cells.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a perovskite thin film to improve the yield of four-terminal stacked modules. Summary of the Invention

[0060] When the substrate precursor liquid of the present invention contains nanoparticles, the presence of nanoparticles results in a uniform distribution of particles on the substrate surface. Due to the uniform distribution of particles on the substrate surface, the perovskite liquid film forms a coffee ring effect at the nanoparticle position of the hole transport layer. After annealing, the perovskite liquid film forms micropores at the nanoparticle position.

[0062] In this invention, when the substrate precursor liquid is a hole transport layer precursor liquid, and the hole transport layer precursor liquid contains nanoparticles, due to the presence of nanoparticles, there are uniformly distributed particles on the surface of the hole transport layer. Due to the uniformly distributed particles on the surface of the hole transport layer, the perovskite liquid film forms a coffee ring effect at the position of the hole transport layer nanoparticles.

[0063] In this invention, when the substrate precursor solution is a hole transport layer precursor solution, the nanoparticle concentration can be 0.1-8 mg / mL, preferably 2-5 mg / mL, such as 2.0 mg / mL, 2.5 mg / mL, 3.0 mg / mL, 3.5 mg / mL, 4.0 mg / mL, 4.5 mg / mL, and 5.0 mg / mL.

[0065] When the perovskite precursor liquid of this invention contains nanoparticles, the presence of nanoparticles causes a coffee ring effect to form at the nanoparticle sites in the perovskite liquid film. After annealing, micropores are formed at the nanoparticle sites in the perovskite liquid film, which is beneficial for forming a perovskite film with uniformly distributed pores. This changes the appearance evaluation criteria of the perovskite film and improves the battery yield.
[0066] When the perovskite precursor solution of this invention contains nanoparticles, the concentration of the nanoparticles can be 0.1-8 mg / mL, preferably 2-5 mg / mL, such as 2.0 mg / mL, 2.5 mg / mL, 3.0 mg / mL, 3.5 mg / mL, 4.0 mg / mL, 4.5 mg / mL, and 5.0 mg / mL.

[0079] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects: (1) The perovskite thin film of the present invention has uniformly distributed micropores, which changes the appearance standard of the product and is conducive to improving the yield of the product; the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer at the location of the pores form a PN junction, which can ensure the generation of leakage current; in addition, since the charge lateral transport capability of perovskite is poor, the presence of pores will not affect the electrical performance of perovskite battery. (2) By designing the processing method of perovskite thin film, the present invention reduces the processing difficulty of perovskite film by making the perovskite film have pores. (3) When the perovskite thin film of the present invention is used in a perovskite / crystalline silicon four-terminal stacked module, the light incident surface transmits through the perovskite top cell and the crystalline silicon bottom cell to present an overall black effect. The presence of micro-pores in the perovskite thin film does not affect the overall visual effect. The presence of micro-pores in the perovskite thin film allows some light to pass through the pores and directly enter the crystalline silicon bottom cell, thereby increasing the current of the bottom cell and increasing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite / crystalline silicon four-terminal stacked module.

The NiOx layer and the Me-4PAC solid film together form a hole transport layer. 4. A uniform perovskite liquid film is obtained by coating a perovskite precursor liquid with a slit on the surface of the hole transport layer.

[0102] The conditions of Comparative Example 1 were repeated 10 times, and the number of times a perovskite film with good appearance was obtained was 5, so the yield was 50%.
[0103] Test Example 1
[0104] Photoluminescence mapping (PL Mapping) test: The perovskite films prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were removed from the glass substrate. 10cm × 10cm samples were taken from the four corners and center of the perovskite film (edge 1, edge 2, edge 3, edge 4, and center 5), respectively, and placed on the sample testing stage of the PL Mapping device. The test chamber door was closed to ensure the test results were not interfered with by external light sources. The excitation light source power was set to 100%, the exposure time to 2 seconds, and the original black and white image was automatically obtained. The black and white image was rendered using the device's built-in software to obtain the color image shown. The "Nanomeasurer" software was used to statistically analyze the image to obtain the area of individual pores and the pore distribution density.

[0109] Test Example 2
[0110] Photovoltaic performance testing: Under the standard solar spectrum of AM 1.5G at 25℃, a solar simulator was used to test the current output of the perovskite top-mounted / crystalline silicon bottom-mounted perovskite / crystalline silicon four-terminal stacked modules at different voltages using examples 1-7 and comparative examples 1-2. The corresponding current-voltage (IV) characteristic curves were plotted. The cell surface area was 785.3 cm². 2 The incident light power (pin) is 1000 W / m. -2 The photoelectric properties (open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current density, fill factor, and photoelectric conversion efficiency) of the perovskite top cell, crystalline silicon bottom cell, and perovskite / crystalline silicon four-terminal stacked module prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were obtained based on the characteristic curves.
[0111] (1) Open circuit voltage (Voc): The voltage value when the current is zero.
[0112] (2) Short-circuit current density (Jsc): The current value when the voltage is zero is the short-circuit current (Isc), and the current on a unit cell surface area is the short-circuit current density.
[0113] (3) Fill factor (FF): The ratio of the battery's maximum output power (Pmax) to the product of the open-circuit voltage and the short-circuit current. The formula is (Pmax / Voc) Isc), where the maximum power point is the point where the battery output power reaches its maximum value.
[0114] (4) Photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE): Photoelectric conversion efficiency refers to the ratio of maximum output power to incident light power (Pin), and the calculation formula is (Pmax / Pin). 100%.

[0116] Table 3: Photoelectric performance of perovskite top cells, crystalline silicon bottom cells, and perovskite / crystalline silicon four-terminal stacked modules prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2
[0117] Currently, most companies in the industry use the standard of no visible holes for a good battery appearance. Visible holes result in poor appearance. The perovskite film prepared in Comparative Example 1 is uniform and continuous, with a good appearance and no obvious defects. However, in the actual preparation of large-area perovskite films, irregular and irregular holes often appear, causing poor appearance. Although the perovskite film prepared in Comparative Example 2 shows no significant difference in photoelectric performance of the perovskite battery, its appearance is poor. In this invention, the addition of nanoparticles results in uniformly distributed micropores in the perovskite film, which can change the appearance judgment standard, avoid appearance defects caused by holes, and improve the yield of the four-terminal stacked battery. Furthermore, due to the presence and obstruction of the bottom cell, smaller visible holes in the upper part of the perovskite top cell of the four-terminal stacked module of this invention become difficult to observe with the naked eye after encapsulation into a four-terminal stacked module.
