Description

Benzotriazole organic compounds and their preparation methods and applications

[0001] Related applications

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2023116828707, filed on December 8, 2023, entitled “Benzotriazole organic compounds, preparation methods and applications thereof,” the entire text of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the field of organic functional materials, and in particular to a benzotriazole organic compound and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0004] As an abundant, clean energy source that requires no transportation, solar energy holds promise as a viable alternative to traditional fossil fuels. The development of solar energy collection and conversion technologies has become a research focus. Photovoltaic devices, which directly convert solar energy into electricity, are one of the most efficient ways to utilize solar energy. Globally, demand for installed photovoltaic capacity continues to grow.

[0005] However, the vast majority of photovoltaic devices can only effectively utilize visible and near-infrared sunlight, with low efficiency in utilizing ultraviolet light (wavelengths less than 400nm). Furthermore, the presence of ultraviolet light in sunlight can reduce the lifespan of photovoltaic devices, especially for heterojunction (HJT) cells. HJTs are expected to replace rear-surface cells (PERC) and tunneling oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cells, becoming the third generation of solar cells. Furthermore, while the use of UV-absorbing encapsulating films can improve the stability of photovoltaic devices, this can significantly reduce their efficiency.

[0006] The use of wavelength conversion films not only effectively absorbs ultraviolet light from sunlight, preventing it from damaging the lifespan of photovoltaic devices, but also converts ultraviolet light into usable visible light, thereby improving the photovoltaic device's photoelectric conversion efficiency. The key to wavelength conversion film technology lies in selecting the right light converter. Traditional light converters are mainly divided into inorganic and organic light converters. Compared with inorganic light converters, organic light converters offer advantages such as lower cost, a wider variety, and easily tunable performance. Furthermore, since the substrate of wavelength conversion films is typically an organic polymer material, organic light converters often exhibit better dispersibility and compatibility with the substrate, and have less impact on the wavelength conversion film's light transmission properties. While traditional organic light converters can effectively absorb ultraviolet light and convert it into visible light (typically blue or sky blue), thereby improving the efficiency of photovoltaic devices, they suffer from poor stability and the corresponding wavelength conversion films have a high water vapor transmission rate, which significantly reduces the lifespan of photovoltaic devices.

[0215] It is understood that the second anti-reflection layer 160 and the third anti-reflection layer 170 are independent of each other, and their respective compositions may be the same or different. That is, the types of benzotriazole-based organic compounds in the second anti-reflection layer 160 and the third anti-reflection layer 170 may be the same or different, and the content of the benzotriazole-based organic compounds may be the same or different. Similarly, the types of silicone resin materials may be the same or different, and the content of the silicone resin materials may be the same or different.

[0217] Similarly, for a photovoltaic device whose anti-reflection layer includes a patterned anti-reflection photovoltaic film, its electron transport layer can be one layer or two layers. For example, along the direction close to the perovskite active layer, the electron transport layer includes a first electron transport layer and a second electron transport layer. The material of the first electron transport layer is not limited to one or more semiconductor metal oxides selected from tin oxide, zinc oxide and titanium oxide, and the material of the second electron transport layer is not limited to one or more semiconductor metal oxides selected from C60, C70, PC 61 BM([6,6]-phenyl-C 61 Methyl butyrate), PC 71 BM([6,6]-phenyl-C 71 One or more of the electron transport materials selected from the group consisting of methyl butyrate) fullerene derivatives, naphthalene diimide and perylene diimide.

[0218] It is understood that for photovoltaic devices whose anti-reflection layers include patterned anti-reflection photovoltaic films, a hole modification layer is further provided between the perovskite active layer and the hole transport layer to further enhance the hole transport effect.

The first amorphous silicon layer and the second amorphous silicon layer are each independently an intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer.
