[0025] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the second tin oxide layer is located close to the perovskite layer.

[0032] In some embodiments, the protective layer includes at least one of LiF, Al2O3, and SiO2.
[0033] In some embodiments, the protective layer has a discontinuous island structure. The protective layer includes at least one of LiF, Al2O3, and SiO2.

[0036] In some implementations, the thickness of the protective layer is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 2 nm. Since the material of the protective layer itself is insulating, the thickness of the protective layer should not be too thick. Within this thickness range, the protective layer not only protects the perovskite layer but also ensures electron transport performance.

The electron extraction layer includes at least one of perylene imide and its derivatives, naphthalene imide and its derivatives, and semiconductor compounds. Using such an electron extraction layer instead of traditional fullerenes and their derivatives can reduce manufacturing costs. The composite electron transport layer formed by the electron extraction layer and the first tin oxide layer improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell while significantly improving the stability of the perovskite.
[0041] In some embodiments, an electron extraction layer is formed on the perovskite layer by at least one of the following methods: vapor deposition, spin coating, physical vapor deposition (PVD), reactive plasma deposition (RPD), or pulsed laser deposition (PLD). A first tin oxide layer is formed on the electron extraction layer by atomic layer deposition (ALD).
[0042] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the electron extraction layer is prepared using the above-mentioned mild preparation method, which helps to protect the perovskite layer from damage and does not affect the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell. The first tin oxide layer is deposited on the electron extraction layer using ALD deposition, which facilitates the preparation of a film layer with low work function and improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.
[0043] In some embodiments, the step of setting an electron extraction layer on the perovskite layer is as follows: setting a protective layer on the perovskite layer, and setting an electron extraction layer on the protective layer.
[0044] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, an electron extraction layer is set after a protective layer is set on the perovskite layer, which further protects the perovskite layer from damage in subsequent processes while improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0086] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the second tin oxide layer is located near the perovskite layer 10. During the preparation of the high work function second tin oxide layer, its preparation process has little impact on the perovskite layer 10. At the same time, during the subsequent preparation of the low work function first tin oxide layer 113, the already prepared high work function second tin oxide layer can protect the perovskite layer 10, preventing the perovskite layer 10 from being damaged during the preparation of the first tin oxide layer 113, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100.

The second tin oxide layer is located near the perovskite layer 10. During the preparation of the high work function second tin oxide layer, its preparation process has little impact on the perovskite layer 10. At the same time, during the subsequent preparation of the low work function first tin oxide layer 113, the already prepared high work function second tin oxide layer can protect the perovskite layer 10, preventing the perovskite layer 10 from being damaged during the preparation of the first tin oxide layer 113, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100.

[0090] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the second tin oxide layer is located near the perovskite layer 10. During the preparation of the high-roughness second tin oxide layer, its preparation process has little impact on the perovskite layer 10. Simultaneously, during the subsequent preparation of the low-work-function first tin oxide layer 113, the already prepared high-work-function second tin oxide layer can protect the perovskite layer 10, preventing damage to the perovskite layer 10 during the preparation of the first tin oxide layer 113, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100.

[0091] In some embodiments, referring to FIG2, the composite electron transport layer 11 further includes a protective layer 111 located on the side of the electron extraction layer 112 facing the perovskite layer 10.
[0092] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a composite electron transport layer 11 is formed by sequentially disposing of a protective layer 111, an electron extraction layer 112, and a first tin oxide layer 113. One function of disposing of the protective layer 111 and the electron extraction layer 112 is to reduce manufacturing costs. Another function is to protect the perovskite layer 10 during the subsequent preparation of the low work function first tin oxide layer 113, so that the perovskite layer 10 is not damaged, thereby maintaining the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100.
[0093] In some embodiments, the protective layer 111 includes at least one of LiF, Al2O3, and SiO2.
[0094] In some embodiments, the protective layer 111 has a discontinuous island structure. The protective layer 111 includes at least one of LiF, Al2O3, and SiO2. The discontinuous island structure of the protective layer 111 can expose part of the perovskite layer 10. The exposed perovskite layer 10 directly contacts the electron extraction layer 112 to transport electrons. The protruding island-shaped protective layer located between the perovskite layer 10 and the electron extraction layer 112 generates a tunneling effect, which can improve the electron transport efficiency, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 100.
[0095] In some embodiments, the protective layer 111 includes at least one of ZnO, PbS, and TiO2.
[0096] In some embodiments, the protective layer 111 is a discontinuous island structure or a continuous film layer. The protective layer 111 includes at least one of ZnO, PbS, and TiO2. The protective layer 111 has a discontinuous island structure or a continuous film layer. ZnO, PbS, and TiO2 have good electrical conductivity, which can not only protect the perovskite layer 10 but also take into account the electron transport performance, so that the solar cell 100 has good photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0097] In some embodiments, the thickness of the protective layer 111 is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 2 nm. Since the material of the protective layer 111 itself is insulating, the thickness of the protective layer 111 should not be too thick. Within this thickness range, the protective layer 111 not only protects the perovskite layer 10 but also ensures electron transport performance. The thickness of the protective layer 111 can be 0.0001 nm, 0.1 nm, 0.2 nm, 0.5 nm, 0.6 nm, 0.9 nm, 1.0 nm, 1.1 nm, 1.5 nm, 1.6 nm, 1.9 nm, 2.0 nm, etc., or a range consisting of any two of the above values. For example, it can be 0.0001 nm to 0.5 nm, 0.1 nm to 1.1 nm, 1.1 nm to 2.0 nm, 0.5 nm to 2.0 nm, 0.9 nm to 1.9 nm, 0.2 nm to 2.0 nm, 0.6 nm to 1.6 nm, etc. When the protective layer thickness is 0, the maximum thickness of the electron extraction layer 112 can be 10 nm.
[0098] In some embodiments, the total thickness of the protective layer 111 and the electron extraction layer 112 is 3 nm to 10 nm. Having a total thickness of 3 nm to 10 nm allows the protective layer 111 and the electron extraction layer 112 to possess high electron transport performance. The total thickness of the protective layer 111 and the electron extraction layer 112 can be 3 nm, 3.1 nm, 3.8 nm, 4.1 nm, 4.9 nm, 5.0 nm, 5.9 nm, 6.6 nm, 7.5 nm, 7.9 nm, 8.5 nm, 8.8 nm, 9.1 nm, 9.5 nm, 10.0 nm, etc., or a range consisting of any two of the above values. For example, it can be 3 nm to 5.0 nm, 5.0 nm to 7.9 nm, 7.9 nm to 10.0 nm, 3.8 nm to 8.5 nm, 4.1 nm to 9.5 nm, 4.9 nm to 10 nm, etc.

[0163] Battery performance tests were conducted on the battery devices 1 to 11 obtained from Examples 1 to 9 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0164] Test method:
[0165] 1. Initial efficiency test method: JV test uses an AAA-grade solar simulator as the light source and a high-precision source meter as the test equipment. The voltage scan range is from -0.1V to 1.2V, and the data acquisition delay is 20ms.
[0166] 2. Stability test of 85℃ dark storage (ISOS-D-3I): Place each group of devices on the hot stage in a glove box, or place the devices in a fixture that is continuously purged with nitrogen and then place the fixture on the hot stage, maintaining H2O and O2 < 0.1ppm.
