Description

Method for improving performance of novel organic solar cell of interface recombination generated current carrier
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a method for improving the conversion efficiency of a novel organic solar cell for obtaining free carriers by interface recombination by using an interface layer to intervene in an organic light absorption layer.
Background
Organic solar cells are favored by researchers due to the advantages of simple preparation, light weight, low cost and large-area production. At present, although the efficiency of organic solar cells has broken through the energy conversion efficiency of 13%, the efficiency of cells needs to be further improved for realizing industrialization. In order to further improve the efficiency of organic solar cells, it is important to understand the interfacial processes of such cells, including interfacial free carrier generation, exciton recombination, charge and exciton interaction, etc. Among these processes, the generation process of free carriers is very important. It is generally believed that for a cell with a p-n junction, the mechanism for free carrier generation is exciton dissociation at the interface. However, in 2010, the teaching of song group beam proposed a new mechanistic process: the generation of free carriers can also come from the interaction of interfacial excitons and excitons, a mechanism that is realized by using a novel cell composed of two n-type organic materials (Q.L. Song, et al, evaluation of harvesting electric conductivity byexsitionbinding in an n-n type solar cell, J. Am. chem. Soc., 132 (2010) 4554-4555.). This new free carrier cell has significant potential research value. On the one hand, the novel battery can theoretically provide a large Voc, and therefore, a high-efficiency battery is obtained. On the other hand, the novel battery brings a large potential window due to the difference between the two energy levels, and is expected to be used for improving the catalytic performance in catalysis. However, the generation process of free carriers of the novel solar cell is that excitons and excitons are generated together, so that the conversion efficiency of the solar cell is low at present. How to improve the conversion efficiency is a big research focus of the novel battery.

firstly, cleaning a substrate; putting the patterned ITO glass into acetone, ethanol, isopropanol and deionized water, respectively performing ultrasonic treatment for 20 minutes, and then drying by using nitrogen for later use;
in the second step, a 39nm-41nm layer of PEDOT: PSS (available from Heraeus) was spin coated onto the treated ITO substrate and baked at 150 ℃ for 30 min.

The results obtained from the above embodiments 1, 2 are shown in fig. 2, and it can be seen that, when Alq3 intervenes between the organic light absorbing layer 1 and the organic light absorbing layer 2, the short-circuit current and the open-circuit voltage of the battery are both improved, increasing with the increase of the thickness of Alq3, obtaining an optimum value when increasing to 5nm, and further increasing the thickness of Alq3, the performance of the battery starts to decline. This is explained by the fact that with the introduction of Alq3, the interaction of the interfacial excitons and excitons (shown in fig. 2) is promoted, generating more free carriers, thereby improving the performance of the cell. However, if the thickness is further increased, the interface exciton and exciton are too far apart, which is not favorable for the interaction between the interface exciton and exciton, and the generated free carrier is reduced, resulting in the degradation of the battery performance.
