Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to perovskite battery preparation technical field, specifically, relate to a kind of coating device for improving perovskite solar cell crystallization uniformity. BACKGROUND
[0002] Perovskite material is not calcium nor titanium, but a kind of "ceramic oxide" with the same crystal structure, molecular formula is ABX3, A represents "large radius cation", B represents "metal cation", and X represents "halogen anion". The three kinds of ions can present many magical physical properties through different element arrangement and combination or adjusting the distance between each other, including but not limited to insulation, ferroelectric, antiferromagnetic, giant magnetic effect, etc. As the most potential new material, perovskite can be used as the active layer of solar cell, which has many excellent photoelectric properties, such as adjustable band gap, high light absorption coefficient, low exciton binding energy, high carrier mobility, high defect tolerance, etc.; and perovskite preparation process is simple, which can realize semi-transparent, ultra-light, ultra-thin, flexible, etc.; perovskite raw materials are widely available and abundant. These advantages make perovskite solar cell become a new generation of technology to subvert crystalline silicon and thin film solar cell.
[0003] At present, large-area industrialization is mainly prepared by solution method, that is, perovskite powder is added to solvent to prepare perovskite precursor solution, and then perovskite precursor solution is uniformly coated on the surface of substrate by slot coating or doctor blade coating technology to form liquid film. The liquid film sample is taken off from the coating device and placed in VCD (Vacuum concentrate drying) vacuum flash evaporation equipment to quickly evacuate (5s to reach 10Pa), so that the low-boiling-point solvent is quickly volatilized. Finally, high-temperature annealing (~120℃) is carried out on the heating table to form polycrystalline perovskite film. The size of industrialization sample is generally large, such as 0.6m*1.2m, 1.2m*2.4m, etc. Slot or doctor blade coating needs a certain time from the starting end to the ending end, and the time from the starting end to the ending end will become longer as the sample size becomes larger. The solvent in perovskite solution has high-boiling-point solvent and low-boiling-point solvent. The low-boiling-point solvent is easy to volatilize. Due to the difference in coating time, the low-boiling-point solvent remains on the surface of the sample for different time at the starting end and the ending end, which will cause the different degrees of natural volatilization of low-boiling-point solvent in different areas, and finally cause the inconsistent amount of low-boiling-point solvent retained on the surface of substrate at different positions after coating. After VCD flash evaporation and heating table annealing, the crystallization of perovskite layer in different areas is inconsistent, which affects the performance of the device.
