Description

Flexible single-component organic solar cell and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of organic solar cell devices, in particular to a flexible single-component organic solar cell and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the progress of society and the development of science and technology, the demand of human beings on energy is increasing, and the excessive development of resources such as coal, petroleum and the like seriously influences the living environment of human beings and the ecological environment of the earth, so that a novel renewable energy source is required to be developed. Solar power generation is a technology capable of directly converting solar energy into electric energy, can directly or indirectly provide abundant energy support for people, is an important way for social forward development for development and utilization of solar technology, and gets wide attention in the scientific research field and the industrial field.
The rationale for the operation of solar cells stems from the photoelectric response characteristics of semiconductor materials, and the earliest development of solar cells dates back to the discovery of Becqurel photovoltaic effect by 1839 scientists. Since then, people are exploring and developing new solar cell materials and device processes, and solar cells based on silicon-based (single crystal, polycrystal and amorphous silicon) solar cells, cadmium sulfide, cadmium telluride, gallium arsenide and other inorganic compounds are emerged. Particularly, with the continuous development of solar cells and the development demand of human society, organic solar cell systems independent of inorganic solar cell systems are produced. Unlike inorganic solar systems, the advantages of light weight, thinness, flexibility, etc., of organic solar cells render organic solar cells irreplaceable for widespread use. Among the organic solar cells, the most widely used are rigid solar cells such as crystalline silicon cells. In some occasions where rigid batteries cannot be used, the flexible solar battery gains a place due to the unique and flexible characteristics and plays an irreplaceable role in various outdoor portable applications, particularly in the fields of scientific research, military industry and the like.
The physical and electrical properties of the photovoltaically active material are the primary factors in the fabrication of flexible organic solar cells. As for the photovoltaic active material, the bulk heterojunction type device becomes the mainstream of the current organic solar cell device structure due to its high energy conversion efficiency, however, the active layer of the bulk heterojunction type device structure is usually formed by blending a small molecule acceptor and a polymer donor, and the preparation condition of a fine control film is required to control the phase separation dimension formed by the acceptor, so as to ensure dissociation of excitons and transmission of charges, which has high requirements on the device preparation process and manual operation, and is not favorable for industrial practical application production and popularization. In addition, although the bulk heterogeneous solar cell has high conversion efficiency, the small molecular acceptor material has high degree of freedom in an active layer due to small size, and is easy to self-aggregate under the conditions of illumination and heating, and the performance attenuation of an inverted device is large in short time, so that the prepared organic solar cell device is very unstable and is difficult to produce and apply in a large area. At the present stage, the preparation based on the flexible organic solar cell is still based on the method that the bulk heterojunction is used as the active layer material, so that the process of the flexible organic solar cell is complicated, and the application and popularization of the flexible organic solar cell are limited to a certain extent due to the intrinsic instability of the bulk heterojunction.
The information disclosed in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

The cell devices prepared in examples 1 to 2 and comparative example 1 were subjected to an energy conversion efficiency test using a solar simulator, and the test numerical results and J-V curves are shown in table 1, fig. 3 and fig. 4. As can be seen from table 1 and the J-V graph of fig. 3, the energy conversion efficiency of the flexible organic solar cell of example 1 of the present invention is 7.21%, which is the highest energy conversion efficiency of the current flexible monocomponent organic solar cell and is comparable to that of the rigid monocomponent organic solar cell (7.82%). As can be seen from fig. 4, the ultra-thin flexible monocomponent organic solar cell prepared in example 2 of the present invention still has high energy conversion efficiency, which is close to that of the rigid monocomponent organic solar cell.

Second, storage stability test
The flexible single-component organic solar cell of example 1 and the bulk-heterojunction flexible organic solar cell of comparative example 2 were placed in a nitrogen atmosphere for storage at room temperature, and energy conversion efficiency tests were performed at intervals to evaluate the storage stability of the devices. The test results are shown in fig. 5. As can be seen from fig. 5, after 400h of storage, the efficiency of the flexible monocomponent organic solar cell of example 1 was hardly deteriorated, the efficiency could be stably maintained at 96% or more, and the storage stability of the bulk-heterojunction-type flexible organic solar cell of comparative example 2 was deteriorated to 80% or less.
Third, bending property test
The flexible single-component organic solar cell of example 1 and the bulk-heterojunction-type flexible organic solar cell of comparative example 2 were subjected to a bending performance test, as shown in fig. 6, both ends of the flexible single-component organic solar cell of example 1 and the bulk-heterojunction-type flexible organic solar cell of comparative example 2 were placed in a bending test jig, respectively, by setting a movement distance of the jig to achieve effects of bending at different radii, under conditions of different bending radii, the organic solar cells of example 1 and comparative example 2 were bent 1000 times, respectively, and then the energy conversion efficiency after bending was tested under a sunlight-simulated light source, with the test results shown in fig. 7. As can be seen from fig. 7, the energy conversion efficiency of the flexible monocomponent organic solar cell of example 1 is still stable to more than 95% after the flexible monocomponent organic solar cell is bent for 1000 times with a bending radius of 2.5mm, and the bulk heterojunction flexible organic solar cell of comparative example 2 shows different degrees of attenuation.
Fourth, adhesion Performance test
The ultra-thin flexible mono-component organic solar cell of example 2 was attached to different object surfaces as shown in fig. 8. It can be seen that the ultra-thin flexible monocomponent organic solar cell of example 2 has excellent adhesion to various object surfaces.
