を用いた有機太陽電池が研究されている。However, solar cells using these inorganic semiconductor single crystals require many processes such as single crystal manufacturing and doping processes to manufacture the battery, resulting in extremely high production costs, making them unsuitable for consumer use. There wasn't. In order to reduce the production cost of such solar cells, research is being conducted on organic solar cells using organic photoconductors that can be easily formed into thin films by vapor deposition, casting, or the like.

Examples of conventional organic solar cells in Japan include US Pat. No. 3,844,843 using crystal violet, and other US Pat. However, none of these have been put into practical use due to their low efficiency.

Carrier transport properties are very poor compared to inorganic crystalline semiconductors, and this is one of the causes of the poor efficiency mentioned above.In addition, carrier traps in the layer containing the above-mentioned organic material occur during continuous use. promotes the deterioration of the characteristics of
This was a major factor hindering the practical application of organic solar cells.

特定の結晶形の有機光導電材料を用いることが太陽電池
の変換効率を上げる上で非常に重要となる。In general, in organic photoconductive materials, the quantum efficiency during photoelectric conversion upon irradiation with light strongly depends on the arrangement of individual molecules. Therefore, when using an organic photoconductive material in a solar cell, it is very important to use a certain crystalline organic photoconductive material in order to increase the conversion efficiency of the solar cell.
有機光導電材料の薄膜を得る方法としては真空蒸着、有
機材料溶液のキャスティング、ディッピングや有機材料
粒子の分散液のキャスティングディッピング等がある。Methods for obtaining a thin film of an organic photoconductive material include vacuum deposition, casting of an organic material solution, dipping, and casting and dipping of a dispersion of organic material particles.

ィッピング法と比較して不利な点が多い。In vacuum evaporation of organic materials, it is very difficult to selectively obtain the desired crystal form, and complex processes such as post-treatment are often required to obtain the desired crystal form. From the perspective of producing large-area organic solar cells, vacuum evaporation, which requires high equipment costs and involves a complicated process, has many disadvantages compared to casting and dipping methods.

At present, high conversion efficiency has not been achieved.

得られない。Here, for the purpose of obtaining an organic photoconductive material in a desired crystalline form, a casting method or a dipping method is used using a dispersion of organic photoconductive material particles in a desired crystalline form and a binder resin that have been previously obtained by various treatments. The method for obtaining thin films is attracting attention. However, when a film in which crystalline particles of an organic photoconductive material are simply dispersed in a binder resin is used as a solar cell, the transportability of photocarriers generated by light irradiation is very poor, resulting in poor conversion efficiency. Good stability in continuous use cannot be obtained.

陽電池を提供することが可能となったのである。Therefore, as a result of repeated studies on improving the transportability of carriers in films with this fine particle dispersion system, we found that, as in the present invention, photogenerated holes can be improved without interfering with light absorption and photocarrier generation in the crystalline particles of organic photoconductive materials. It has been found that it is an effective means to dissolve and mix an organic dye to be transported at the molecular level, and the work function of the organic pigment is 0.3 [eV] or more larger than the work function of the organic dye. This made it possible to provide an organic solar cell with high conversion efficiency and stability for long-term continuous use.

When light irradiation is performed from the electrode l side, the electrode] is made a transparent conductive layer, and when light irradiation is performed from the substrate 4 side, the substrate 4 and the electrode 3 are made transparent. The electrode (and base) on the side that is not irradiated with light does not necessarily have to be transparent.

Various conductive materials such as polymers, snow, and oxides such as ITO can be used as the electrodes. As the light-transmitting electrode, it is necessary to use a translucent material such as a semi-transparent thin film of metal or a transparent conductive oxide.

However, when this organic solar cell is irradiated with light from the substrate side, the substrate needs to be translucent, and in this case, transparent glass, plastic, etc. are useful.

。Transport of photocarriers in the solar cell of the present invention is carried out in such a way that electrons of the photocarriers pass through an organic pigment and holes pass through an organic dye. Therefore, in order to maintain good transfer of photocarriers to and from each electrode, one electrode material has a work function smaller than all the organic pigments in the organic photoconductive layer, and the other electrode material has a work function smaller than all the organic pigments in the organic photoconductive layer. Select the one with a larger work function. Although the material for the electrode is not particularly limited, it is preferable that it satisfies this condition. Examples of the electrode material include metals such as aluminum, copper, and stainless steel, conductive polymers such as polyacetylene and polypyrrole, and layers in which quaternary ammonium salts are dissolved in polymers.
以下、本発明を更に詳しく説明する。The present invention will be explained in more detail below.

移動するものである。The basic operating mechanism of the present invention is that a Schottky junction is formed between the electrode and the organic pigment in the organic photoconductive layer due to the difference in work functions between the two, and this barrier portion causes the organic pigment to absorb the irradiated light and emit light. Generate a carrier pair. Next, holes among the photocarrier pairs generated in the pigment are injected into the organic dye in the organic photoconductive layer, and the holes move through the dye and the electrons move through the pigment, respectively, according to the potential difference of the Schottky junction. It is something that moves.

用いた機能分離型の有機太陽電池を可能とした。In the present invention, a Schottky junction is created in the organic photoconductive layer, and the organic pigment is given the function of absorbing irradiated light and generating photocarriers, and the function of transporting electrons among the photocarriers. By giving organic dyes the ability to transport pores, we have made it possible to create functionally separated organic solar cells that effectively utilize the characteristics of each material.

とにより短波長から長波長までの広い範囲にわたって光
キャリアの生成が可能となる。When two or more types of organic pigments having different spectral characteristics, such as those having absorption at short wavelengths and long wavelengths, are mixed in the organic photoconductive layer, each organic pigment absorbs the irradiated light and generates photocarriers. Among the generated photocarriers, electrons move according to the potential difference of the Schottky junction formed between the electrode and the pigment, but because carrier traps exist between different organic pigments, the electron transportability is extremely poor. There were bad flaws. Therefore, by providing a work function difference of 0.2 [eV] or more between each organic pigment as in the present invention, it has become possible to improve the electron transportability within the pigment. Such an increase in electron transportability brings about a sensitizing effect, and by using the above pigments as pigments, it becomes possible to generate photocarriers over a wide range from short wavelengths to long wavelengths.

.. By increasing the value to 3 [eV] or more, holes among the photocarrier pairs generated within the pigment of the organic photoconductive layer are efficiently injected into the dye, and the transportability of holes is enhanced.
