Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the organic photovoltaic technical field, concretely relates to an organic photovoltaic device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Organic photovoltaic is a solar cell technology based on organic semiconductor. Organic photovoltaic materials have the characteristics of high absorbance, adjustable absorption band, and low leakage current under low light intensity in the visible light range. They have unique industrialization advantages in wearable electronic devices, Internet of Things, electronic price tags, building photovoltaic integration, new energy vehicles, and other scenarios. They are considered to be a new generation of solar cell technology that is both economical and has development potential.
[0003] The structure of an organic photovoltaic device usually includes an anode, an anode buffer layer, a photoactive layer, a cathode buffer layer, and a cathode layer stacked in order from the bottom right to the top. The working principle is as follows: After the donor material and the acceptor material in the photoactive layer absorb photons, they form an electron-hole pair with a certain binding energy, i.e., a photogenerated exciton. Then, under the driving of the exciton concentration gradient, the photogenerated exciton diffuses to the interface between the donor and the acceptor and is converted into a CT-state exciton with weaker binding energy. Under the driving of the energy level difference, the CT-state exciton overcomes the binding energy and dissociates into a carrier. The separated electron and hole become free-moving carriers, where the electron moves to the cathode in the acceptor material, and the hole moves to the anode in the donor material. The cathode and the anode capture the electrons and holes that move to the vicinity of the electrodes and output electric charges externally, thereby realizing power supply.
[0004] Patent CN219917183U discloses a packaging structure of an organic solar cell, which includes two layers of glass and an organic polymer device between the two layers of glass. The organic polymer device is connected with a conductive metal tape that extends out of the glass and is electrically connected with an external device through the conductive metal tape.
[0005] Patent CN116528603A discloses an organic solar cell structure, wherein the electrode lead-out part and the upper electrode are integrally formed, thereby effectively avoiding damage to the element caused by the contact between water vapor, oxygen in the external environment and the organic functional layer of the organic solar cell during cell packaging.
[0006] Then, if the conductive metal band is used to lead out the process in the prior art, there will be gaps and bubbles near the conductive metal band during packaging, so that air and / or oxygen and / or water directly enter the layer system of the organic solar cell, thereby affecting the packaging effect and the service life of the photovoltaic cell. If the electrode lead-out part and the upper electrode are integrally formed, the current upper electrode generally uses a thin metal layer (such as Ag electrode), when the organic solar cell is connected with the external device (such as through the spring), the connection part will rub with the electrode lead-out part, and frequent rubbing can easily cause the metal thin film layer at the contact position to wear or even fall off, thereby unable to provide continuous and stable power supply for the integrated product.
