[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example:

[0022] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0023] A flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell includes a cell 1. The cell 1 comprises a transparent light-emitting layer 2, a conductive layer 3, an absorption layer 4, a back reflection layer 5, a flexible substrate layer 6, and an elastic sheet 7. The transparent light-emitting layer 2 is disposed on the top of the cell 1, the conductive layer 3 is disposed on the bottom of the transparent light-emitting layer 2, the absorption layer 4 is disposed on the bottom of the conductive layer 3, the flexible substrate layer 6 is disposed on the bottom of the cell 1, and the elastic sheet 7 is disposed on the surface of the cell 1.

[0024] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the transparent light-emitting layer 2 is composed of a thin film made of indium tin oxide and silver-based nanopatterns. The indium tin oxide and silver-based nanopatterns are interwoven. Indium tin oxide is one of the most commonly used transparent conductive materials, with excellent conductivity and transparency. Silver, as a metal with good conductivity, can also be used to make a transparent conductive layer. The transparent conductive electrode film is manufactured on a large scale through silver-based nanopatterns, which is not easily broken and is more resistant to chemical corrosion.

[0025] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the conductive layer 3 is composed of zinc oxide and a conductive polymer. The surface of the zinc oxide is coated with a titanium-winged conductive film. Multiple groups of carbon nanotubes are arranged in the middle of the conductive layer 3. The multiple groups of carbon nanotubes are distributed at equal intervals and have an interlaced structure design. The conductive polymer is composed of polyaniline and contains inorganic nanoparticles. The titanium-winged conductive film is an ultra-thin metal conductive film with a strong technical reserve in the field of flexible photovoltaics. It has low sheet resistance, high transmittance, low haze, and good stability. It also has thermal shielding and good flexibility. Carbon nanotubes have high tensile strength and elastic modulus. They have low density but high strength. At the same time, they also have good flexibility and are not easy to break. In addition, carbon nanotubes have extremely high electrical conductivity. Electrons are transported very quickly inside them with almost no energy loss. This excellent conductivity makes carbon nanotubes a key auxiliary material for improving the energy density of battery 1, realizing fast charging and discharging, and improving cycle life. In addition, carbon nanotubes can also be used as conductive agents for integrated circuits, greatly improving circuit performance. Carbon nanotubes also have very high thermal conductivity.

[0026] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the absorption layer 4 is composed of amorphous silicon, which contains three pn junction absorption layers. There are three sets of pn junction absorption layers, and gaps are provided between the three sets of pn junction absorption layers, which helps to reduce the cost of raw materials. By forming three pn junction absorption layers with different band gaps, the conversion efficiency and stability can be improved. The stable conversion efficiency can reach 8.0%-8.5%. At the same time, the three pn junction absorption layers with different band gaps absorb blue light, green light, red light, and infrared light respectively, and the light absorption efficiency is improved through the back reflection layer.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the back reflective layer 5 is composed of a silver-zinc alloy and zinc oxide. The silver-zinc alloy is disposed at the top and bottom of the back reflective layer 5, and the zinc oxide is disposed between the two sets of silver-zinc alloys. The silver-zinc alloy can change the interface roughness by adjusting the doping composition and morphology, thereby reducing light reflection and enhancing light absorption. At the same time, the silver-zinc alloy encapsulates the zinc oxide, which has excellent conductivity and can significantly improve the conductivity of the silver-zinc alloy, giving it better electrical contact performance. The encapsulation of zinc oxide can also enhance the anti-welding performance, arc erosion resistance and anti-material transfer ability of the silver-zinc alloy, thereby improving its service life and reliability.

[0028] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the flexible substrate layer 6 is composed of a flexible polyimide material, and the elastic sheet 7 is composed of an adhesive polymer. The adhesive polymer is made of ethylene dioxythiophene. The elastic sheet 7 can make the battery 1 form a planar structure and can also be bent longitudinally, thereby adapting to various application scenarios of different shapes and sizes. At the same time, the imide has high strength and toughness, can withstand large mechanical stress and impact, and is not easy to break or break.

[0029] In this embodiment, the specific implementation scenario is as follows: Indium tin oxide (ITO) is one of the most commonly used transparent conductive materials, possessing excellent conductivity and transparency. Silver, as a metal with good conductivity, can also be used to fabricate transparent conductive layers. Transparent conductive electrode films are manufactured on a large scale using silver-based nanopatterns, making them less brittle and more resistant to chemical corrosion. Titanium-coated conductive films are ultra-thin metallic conductive films with substantial technological reserves in the field of flexible photovoltaics. They possess low sheet resistance, high transmittance, low haze, and good stability, as well as thermal shielding and good flexibility. Carbon nanotubes have high tensile strength and elastic modulus, low density but high strength, and excellent flexibility, making them less prone to breakage. Furthermore, carbon nanotubes have extremely high electrical conductivity, allowing for very rapid electron transport with almost no energy loss. This excellent conductivity makes carbon nanotubes a key auxiliary material for improving battery energy density, achieving fast charging and discharging, and enhancing cycle life. In addition, carbon nanotubes can also serve as conductive agents in integrated circuits, significantly improving circuit performance. The thermal conductivity is also very high. By forming three pn junction absorption layers with different band gaps, the conversion efficiency and stability are improved. The stable conversion efficiency can reach 8.0%-8.5%. At the same time, the three pn junction absorption layers with different band gaps absorb blue light, green light, red light, and infrared light respectively. The light absorption efficiency is improved by the back reflection layer. The silver-zinc alloy can change the interface roughness by adjusting the doping composition and morphology, thereby reducing light reflection and enhancing light absorption. At the same time, the silver-zinc alloy is coated with zinc oxide, which has excellent conductivity and can significantly improve the conductivity of the silver-zinc alloy, giving it better electrical contact performance. The zinc oxide coating can also enhance the silver-zinc alloy's resistance to welding, resistance to arc erosion, and resistance to material transfer, thereby improving its service life and reliability. The elastic sheet 7 can make the battery 1 form a planar structure and can also achieve longitudinal bending, thereby adapting to various shapes and sizes of application scenarios. Meanwhile, the imide has high strength and toughness, can withstand large mechanical stress and impact, and is not easy to break or break.
