Description

Preparation method and application of ultrathin silver-based OMO (organic molybdenum oxide) composite transparent conductive film
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of a transparent conductive electrode, in particular to a preparation method and application of an OMO composite film transparent conductive electrode based on an ultrathin silver film.
Background
Transparent conductive electrode-TCE (transparent conductive electrode-TCE) has shown a wide application prospect in the field of optoelectronic devices (such as solar cells), and references: k Ellmer. Nature Photonics 6(2012) 809-817. In is doped with Sn In Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO)2O3(ITO) and F-doped SnO2The (FTO) film has good photoelectric characteristics and chemical stability, and becomes the bottom electrode material which is most widely applied in the field of photoelectric devices. However, when TCE is to be fabricated on top of a device (e.g., a translucent solar cell), the impact of the fabrication process on the substrate needs to be considered. High-performance ITO is limited to vacuum deposition and needs high-temperature annealing (more than 200 ℃), the photoelectric performance of ITO prepared by magnetron sputtering at room temperature is relatively poor, sputtering particles with large kinetic energy can damage a bottom layer, and although one buffer layer can avoid the damage, additional parasitic absorption can be introduced. And the toxicity and rarity of the In element have limited the development of ITO, researchers have been working on developing indium-free TCEs. An ideal TCE should have the following characteristics: (1) the conductive material has good conductive property and optical transmittance; (2) chemical stability and compatibility with adjacent layers; (3) the preparation process is simple and is suitable for large-scale production; (4) low cost, safety and no pollution. In the novel TCE, a PEDOT (Poly ethylene glycol ether ketone) electrode and a PSS (Poly ethylene glycol ether ketone) electrode show acidity and water absorbability and are not beneficial to long-term stability of ST-PSCs; silver nanowires and multilayer graphene have good photoelectric properties, but the preparation method is complex and time-consuming, so that the repeatability is poor; the carbon nano tube has low cost and good stability, but the application of the carbon nano tube is limited by the excessively high square resistance (2-25 k omega/sq). And they all lack high-throughput manufacturing processes, are difficult to manufacture on a large scale, and are difficult to produce commercially in a short period of time.
The ultra-thin metal film based medium/metal/medium (DMD) composite film can greatly improve the overall transmittance according to the optical interference effect and the mature large-scale manufacturing process of each part on the premise of maintaining the good conductivity of the metal film, and becomes a very competitive new generation TCE, reference: YG Bi, YF Liu et al. adv. optical Mater 7(2019) 1-23. The composite layer based on oxides as the medium is called OMO. Common candidates for dielectric layers are oxides: the bottom layer oxide functions as a seed layer (promoting two-dimensional growth of the metal layer), a protective layer (preventing metal from directly contacting the bottom layer), and an optical coupling layer; the top oxide layer mainly functions as an optical coupling layer and a protective layer (to insulate the metal layer from moisture, oxygen). In addition, oxide materials with proper work functions can be selected according to the requirements of the photoelectric device. The metal layer is the core of the DMD structure, the overall conductivity is improved through the metal interlayer, but the transmittance of the DMD composite film in a Near Infrared (NIR) region is rapidly reduced due to the strong reflection of the thicker metal layer. Therefore, it is desirable to reduce the thickness of the metal layer and reduce the NIR reflection while ensuring good conductivity of the metal layer. There is now a minimum thickness at which the metal layers can just connect to form a conductive path, referred to as the percolation threshold thickness. The growth mode of common metal materials (e.g., Au, Ag, Cu) is island growth (Volmer-Weber growth mode, i.e., Ag atoms tend to bond to each other more during the initial deposition of Ag thin film than during the bonding to the substrate, forming island structures), which makes the metal thin film have a higher threshold thickness (10-20 nm). If the thickness is less than the threshold value, the metal thin film is not only poor in conductivity but also has parasitic absorption of light due to the local surface plasmon effect, and the transmittance of the entire film is limited.
In recent years, researchers have conducted a great deal of research to obtain ultra-thin metal films with lower threshold thickness and better photoelectric properties. In 2014, Zhang et al of Michigan university in SiO2On the substrate, a smooth and thermally stable ultrathin Ag film is deposited, the thickness of the Ag film can be reduced to 6nm by doping 10 at% of Al into Ag for the first time, the transmittance of the composite film Ag-Al/ZnO (7nm/45nm) can be more than 80% within 400-800nm, the square resistance is 23.4 omega, and the reference: c Zhang, D Zhao et al advanced Materials 26(2014) 5696-. Same year, Korean materialIn the process of sputtering Ag, Wang et al introduce a trace amount of oxygen to disturb the lattice structure of Ag atoms, so that the cohesive force of the Ag atoms is weakened, and in the early nucleation stage, Ag increases nucleation sites under the induction of oxygen, thereby being beneficial to subsequent two-dimensional growth. An ultrathin Ag film with the threshold thickness of 6nm is also realized, the ZnO/AgOx (8nm)/ZnO composite film realizes the average transmittance of 91% (relative transmittance) of 400-1000nm, the maximum transmittance is 95%, the square resistance is 20 omega, and the reference: w Wang, M Song et al. advanced Function Materials 24(2014) 1551-1561. In 2019, Wang et al, China academy of sciences, Wang et al, connected with the institute of physical and chemical research, Wang et al, proposed MoO3/Au/MoO3(30nm/7nm/80nm) structure due to MoO3The larger surface tension is beneficial to the conversion of the growth mode of Au atoms into a Frank-VanderMerwe growth mode, Au presents a nano-grid structure when the thickness is 7nm, and under the condition of keeping good conductivity (19.6 omega/sq), the average transmittance of 800-: z Wang, X Zhu et al. advanced Function Materials 30(2019) 1-8. In the same year, Xu and the like of Ningbo materials of Chinese academy of sciences further reduce the thickness of the ultrathin Ag film to 5nm by doping CdO into Ag, and the Ag-CdO film of the ultrathin Ag film realizes 89% transmittance and 32.9 omega/sq square resistance at 550nm, has a smooth surface and roughness of only 0.2nm, and is disclosed in reference documents: j Xu, J Li et al advanced Materials Interfaces 1900608(2019) 1-8.
The research method mainly adopts the mode of doping Al metal and CdO in the Ag film or ultrathin metal Au, and the like, promotes the transverse growth of the Ag film, and reduces the threshold thickness. However, the Au material is expensive, the Ag film and the film manufactured by the corresponding doping technology are thick and complex in process, and the optical and electrical properties still have a larger promotion space. According to the current research situation and the key scientific and technical problems at home and abroad and based on that Ag is a face-centered cubic lattice structure and Zn is a close-packed hexagonal lattice structure, the applicant proposes that Zn is doped in Ag lattices, so that a substitutional defect or a gap defect is easily formed by doping heterogeneous metal elements, and based on the difference of crystal structures and atomic radii of the two, lattice distortion is easily promoted, so that more film nucleation points are induced; in addition, an O element is doped and introduced, so that the threshold thickness of the pure metal Ag film is further reduced, and the optical transmittance of the OMO integral structure in the visible light and near infrared region NIR is further improved. The research on the aspect has not been reported internationally.
The invention adopts magnetron Sputtering (Sputtering) technology and the like to grow the ultrathin Ag-Zn film, wherein Ag metal target (doping agent is Zn) is taken as a raw material, Ar gas is taken as Sputtering gas, and trace O is selectively introduced in the film coating process2(ii) a Growing Oxide thin film (such as MGZO, NiOx, SnOx or Ga) by using Reactive Plasma Deposition (RPD) technique2O3Thin film) to form and obtain an Oxide/Ag-Zn/Oxide or Oxide/Ag-Zn (O)/Oxide composite thin film, and applying the thin film to optoelectronic devices such as perovskite solar cells, perovskite/crystalline silicon tandem solar cells, organic solar cells, flexible light emitting diodes, flexible display devices and the like. The method for preparing the high-quality ultrathin Ag-Zn film and the application are different from other methods reported internationally at present.

The method overcomes the defect of overlarge NIR reflection in a near infrared region caused by overlarge permeation threshold thickness in the conventional growth of the Ag film, improves the overall visible light and optical transmittance in the near infrared region, and simultaneously keeps good conductivity.
