Description

Selenized annealing prepares Cu-In-Al-Se solar cell film material after a kind of layering electro-deposition The method of material
Technical field
The invention belongs to photoelectric material new energy fields, are related to a kind of layering of thin-film solar cell photoelectric transition material Selenized annealing preparation method after electro-deposition, and in particular to after a kind of fuse salt electric deposition aluminum, electro-deposition respectively in aqueous solution Elemental copper and simple substance indium film, the method that rear selenized annealing forms copper indium aluminum selenium membrane.
Background technology
The deterioration for facing severe Energy situation and ecological environment changes existing energy resource structure, the reproducible green of development The energy has become the project that countries in the world are extremely paid close attention to.Solar energy is because with most clean environment firendly, inexhaustible, nexhaustible, peace It attracts attention the features such as stabilization entirely.Chalcopyrite series Cu (In, Ga, Al) (S, Se)2(CIGASS) material was from 70 years 20th century Since generation occurs, very fast development is obtained, has had become the research hotspot of international photovoltaic circle at present.CIGAS is direct band Gap material, and the absorption coefficient of light is larger, reaches 105cm-1, opto-electronic conversion theoretical efficiency reaches 25%~30%.Only need 1~2um Thick film can absorb 99% or more sunlight, so as to substantially reduce the cost of solar cell.Wherein CuInSe2 (CIS) film energy gap is 1.04eV, and the best band gap of solar cell material should be about 1.45eV.It is absorbed too to optimize Solar spectrum, people become CuIn by adulterating suitable Ga to substitute part In1-xGaxSe2(CIGS) thin-film material, film Energy gap can adjust within the scope of 1.04eV-1.67eV.German Hydrogen Energies in 2015 and regenerative resource research center (ZSW) Use the transfer efficiency of the small area CIGS solar cells of coevaporation technique development for 21.7% (Phys.Status Solidi RRL, 2015,9 (1) 28-31), it is the tidemark of current hull cell.CIGS based thin film solar cells have opto-electronic conversion It is efficient, capability of resistance to radiation is strong, and be that one of current solar cell development is important the advantages that there is no light-induced degradation problems Direction.But the use of a large amount of rare precious metals In, Ga, make the development of this kind of battery be restricted to a certain extent.With Al come CuIn can be formed by substituting rare metal Ga1-xAlxSe2(CIAS) compound semiconductor materials.Compared by changing Al/ (Al+In) Value, energy gap is adjustable between 1.0-2.6eV.Compared with CIGS, Al, which substitutes Ga, can not only make the taboo of solar cell Bandwidth covers broader range.And due to the less expensive of Al, cost can also be substantially reduced.And because it is needed More smaller than Ga alloy opposite alloy concentrations realize the adjusting of identical band gap.For the film of identical band gap, Al ratios are adulterated Adulterate change smallers of the Ga to the lattice constant of basis material.Therefore CIAS is considered as being based on broad-band gap CIGS solar-electricities The substitute in pond prepares CIAS thin-film materials and battery, except be conducive to the utilization of resources, it is cost-effective in addition to, moreover it is possible to improve band gap, The crystalline state for improving film, increases the conductivity of material, shows tempting application prospect.
CIAS absorbed layers thin film preparation process mainly has at present:Vacuum evaporation and magnetron sputtering.Vacuum vapor deposition method be by Cu, Coevaporation forms compound to tetra- source material of In, Al, Se under vacuum conditions together, i.e. method is steamed in four sources altogether.Prepared by this method Battery thin film crystal is big, but stringent to equipment requirement, and preparation process is complicated, and expensive, evaporation process is not easily controlled, system It needs that four copper, indium, aluminium, selenium vapour pressures are differed very big simple substance source and be independently accurately controlled during standby, especially It is the anti-evaporation of selenium, aluminium and indium selenium compound, very big difficulty is brought to the control of the film ultimate constituent, therefore be difficult real Existing large-area uniformity and consecutive production.Magnetron sputtering method is first to sputter Cu-In-Al targets in vacuum equipment to form Cu- Then In-Al predecessors are heat-treated in the atmosphere of Se.Uniformity of film prepared by this method is high, but is similarly Preparation process is more complicated, and equipment requirement is high and production efficiency is relatively low, and production cost is high, and large-scale production is difficult to carry out.And Electrodeposition process equipment is simple, can be in various complex surface substrate deposits, it is easy to accomplish the low temperature of continuous large-area film is heavy Product, electric depositing solution can be used repeatedly, and production cost is low, and production efficiency is high, thus more suitable for industrialized production.At present The document that report prepares CIAS using electro-deposition method is seldom, and only several documents are all to use a step electricity heavy in aqueous solution Product method obtains Cu-In-Al-Se films, is then made annealing treatment again, due to Cu2+, In3+, Al3+Sedimentation potential difference compared with Greatly, especially aluminium is a kind of very active metal, and standard electrode potential is also more negative than hydrogen, and deposition process is not easily controlled, deposition Film quality it is poor, component nonstoichiometry is than serious.There is Cu in film after annealingxSey, InxSeyDeng two The presence of first compound, these impurity phases produces very the surface topography and battery performance of CIAS solar absorption layer films Detrimental effect.
Therefore, it is necessary to explore the cheap preparation process of use cost to be simply layered electro-deposition method, free from admixture two is prepared The fine copper In-Al-Se solar cell thin-film material of first phase.
Invention content
In order to solve the above technical problem, the present invention provides selenized annealings after a kind of layering electro-deposition to prepare Cu-In-Al-Se too The method of positive energy battery film material.Since aluminium is a kind of very active metal, standard electrode potential is -1.662eV ratios Hydrogen is also negative, in order to avoid serious hydrogen evolution phenomenon caused by electric deposition aluminum in aqueous solution, first prepares aluminium chloride, the sodium chloride of melting With potassium chloride ternary inorganic fused salt system, aluminium film is deposited using two electrode electro-deposition methods in the fuse salt.Then by copper Metal salt is dissolved in deionized water, the acid copper on the film aluminized, then indium metal salt is dissolved in deionized water, in/copper of aluminizing Film on electro-deposition indium, then by precursor thin-film under vacuum or inert gas shielding selenized annealing recrystallize, obtain copper and indium Aluminium selenium film.According to multiple Optimal Experimental, find first in fuse salt after the complete aluminium film of electro-deposition, then electrodeposit metals indium, so Electrodeposit metals copper again afterwards, then performed thin film selenized annealing can also be obtained to the system of Cu-In-Al-Se solar cell thin-film material It is standby.Or first electrodeposit metals copper, then electrodeposit metals aluminium film in fuse salt, then electrodeposit metals indium finally will be prefabricated Film selenized annealing can also obtain Cu-In-Al-Se solar cell thin-film material.Infer from growth mechanism, it will be in annealing process Selenium powder be changed to the preparation that sulphur powder this method also can be suitably used for copper and indium aluminium sulphur solar battery film material, or anneal in vulcanization Cu-In-Al-Se sulphur solar battery thin film can be prepared by further carrying out selenized annealing afterwards.We have also carried out two groups of comparisons simultaneously Experiment, one group of contrast experiment is to dissolve copper chloride, inidum chloride and aluminium chloride to carry out a step electro-deposition in deionized water, because For Al in aqueous solution3+The standard electrode EMF of ion is -1.662eV also more negative than hydrogen, with Cu2+The standard electrode EMF of ion+ 0.337eV and In3+Standard electrode EMF -0.343eV the differences of ion are larger, and are co-deposited the electrode for then needing various elements Potential is close to each other, so co-deposition copper aluminium three kinds of elements of indium are relatively difficult in aqueous solution, it cannot be to copper aluminium indium in coating Ratio is accurately controlled.And in aqueous solution due to hydrionic influence, there are a large amount of hydrogen to generate in deposition process, So that there is a large amount of holes and gap in film surface.Another set contrast experiment is that copper chloride, inidum chloride and aluminium chloride all exist Molten condition next step electro-deposition, although molten condition can eliminate the influence of liberation of hydrogen, the coating and electro-conductive glass that deposit The adhesive force of matrix is not strong, and film is easy to fall off, and thin film composition deviation is very serious, and main cause is when three kinds of metals When element deposits in the molten state simultaneously, the mobility of atom is different under same deposition voltage, and deposition rate is different, The atomic quantity that the same deposition time is deposited is different, is extremely difficult to the controllable of thin film composition.
