【摘要】 目前的太阳能电池器件生产制作过程中,存在着原材料生产能耗高、pn结制备能耗高、生产工艺复杂等缺点,而利用低温软化学制备技术获得一种具有较好光电性能的窄带隙材料,并在低温条件下与有机半导体材料直接构成pn结,进而组装成具有一定光电转化效率的太阳能电池器件是解决上述能耗问题及复杂工艺问题的重要突破口。本文利用低温/室温的软化学合成方法,在金属箔片及ITO导电玻璃等基底表面原位制备出具有纳米片状结构的Ag2S,CuS,Ag3CuS2等I-VI族化合物半导体薄膜材料并对反应机理进行了研究。该合成方法具有低能耗、反应物简单、溶剂可重复使用、后处理容易、绿色环保等优点,克服了传统溅射、溶剂热、热蒸发、热注入等方法所面临的设备昂贵、高能耗、高温高压、后处理繁琐等缺点。本文对所合成的I-VI族化合物半导体薄膜材料进行了系统的光电性能测试,结果表明三种材料都具有较好的近红外区光吸收性质,特别是合成的Ag2S和Ag3CuS2片状纳米晶薄膜具有较好的光电响应,且表现出n型半导体的电流特征。在成功合成I-VI族化合物片状纳米晶半导体薄膜的基础上,首次将红外光区吸收的窄带隙半导体材料Ag2S与有机共轭聚合物半导体材料P3HT杂化,设计并组装了以无机Ag2S纳米晶薄膜为主要光吸收层的有机/无机杂化薄膜太阳能电池器件,并对器件制备过程中多种影响光电转化效率的因素进行了讨论,最终在以氯苯为溶剂的条件下制备出具有ITO/Ag2S:P3HT/Au结构的杂化太阳能电池器件并获得了2.04%的光电转化效率。值得注意的是,该种杂化薄膜太阳能电池可以获得高达20mA/cm2的短路电流密度。在以上Ag2S:P3HT太阳能电池器件的基础上,本文还成功制备出Ag3CuS2三元化合物半导体薄膜材料并初步完成了具有ITO/Ag3CuS2:P3HT/MoO3/Ag结构的有机/无机杂化薄膜太阳能电池器件的组装和相关性能测试,在AM1.5G的模拟太阳光下获得了0.39%的光电转化效率。本文创新点主要表现在以下几个方面:(1)利用室温软化学方法,在ITO导电玻璃表面原位制备出具有片状纳米晶阵列结构的Ag2S, CuS, Ag3CuS2等光电半导体薄膜材料;(2)整个材料制备和器件组装过程都在室温下进行,使用的溶剂可以重复利用,几乎无能耗;(3)所得硫化物无机纳米晶薄膜的纳米片状阵列结构有利于同共轭有机分子构建完美的网络互穿结构并形成有序的本体异质结;(4)在目前文献报道的有机/无机杂化薄膜太阳能电池器件中,所组装的以Ag2S:P3HT为活性层的器件具有从紫外区到近红外区最宽的太阳光谱响应和较高的短路电流密度;(5)这种原位构建的太阳能电池器件具有良好的化学和机械稳定性以利于今后工业化生产。我们将以此为指导来设计制备各种基于Ⅰ-Ⅵ族纳米晶的微观有序本体异质结薄膜太阳能电池,通过对器件内部界面微结构的调控及优化,进一步提高此类新型低能耗、低成本电池器件的光电转换效率。本课题的开展将对本体异质结薄膜太阳能电池的理论研究和光伏性能提升产生积极的推动作用。

【Abstract】 The current production of solar cell devices features complicated manufacturing process, high energy consumption in raw material preparing and p-n junction fabricating. Synthesizing a narrow band gap semiconductor material with a good photoelectric property via a low temperature soft chemical route, then forming p-n junction with organic semiconductor at low temperature, and fabricating a solar cell device that can work under sunlight finally, this line will overcome the high energy consumption and complex device fabrication problems. Sulfide thin films compound semiconductor materials with nano-sheet structure of I-VI group were successfully fabricated via a room or low temperature route, the materials include Ag2S, CuS, Ag3CuS2, these thin films rooted from the metal foil or ITO substrate, and the growth mechanism of the materials have been studied. The approach used for synthesizing nano-sheet thin films possess some good features, such as lower or none energy consumption, solvent recycling, cheaper and ordinary reactant, easy post-treatment and less pollutants, it overcomes the shortcomings of completed after-treatment, high temperature, expensive equipment and high pressure exists in traditional synthetic method, for example sputtering, solvothermal, thermal evaporation and hot-injection. The optical and electrical characteristics of the sulfide thin films materials have been systematically studied, and the results shows that all of the as-synthesized compounds are able to absorb the light in the infrared region, especially Ag2S and Ag3CuS2are n-type semiconductor with good photoelectric response. Based on successfully synthesizing sulfide thin films compound semiconductor materials of I-VI group, we firstly design and fabricate organic-inorganic hybrid thin film solar cells devices using small band gap inorganic semiconductor Ag2S and conjugate organic semiconductor P3HT as active layer materials, and inorganic nanocrystal semiconductor Ag2S is the main absorber. The factors that influence power conversion efficiency had been studied, power conversion efficiency of2.04%have been recorded from a hybrid solar cell device with ITO/Ag2S:P3HT/Au structure using chlorobenzene as solvent. We demonstrate that the short circuit current density as high as20mA/cm2can be obtained from this kind of hybrid thin film solar cell device. On the basis of Ag2S:P3HT solar cell model, the ternary sulfide semiconductor Ag3CuS2had been used for fabricating ITO/Ag3CuS2:P3HT/MoO3/Ag hybrid solar cell devices, and the photoelectric performance had been studied preliminarily, and power conversion efficiency of0.39%was recorded under AM1.5G simulated sunlight at present.The major innovation of this research,(1) the photoelectric semiconductor thin film materials Ag2S, CuS, Ag3CuS2with nano sheet structure are firstly synthesized via a room temperature soft chemical route,(2) the synthesis of material and fabrication of solar cell device are all at room, this process will cost very little energy, and the solvent can be used reused,(3) the nano sheet array structure of the sulfide thin film favors the perfect interpenetrating network that formed with inorganic and conjugate organic semiconductors,(4) the solar cell device fabricated with Ag2S:P3HT hybrid layer possesses a higher short circuit current density and the broadest spectral range response character, spectral range response from ultraviolet region to near infrared region,(5) this kind of hybrid solar cell device have good chemical and mechanical stability features, it is better for industrial production.In our future research, we will design and fabricate kinds of Ⅰ-Ⅵ group bulk heterojunction solar cells with order microstructure, basing on our obtained technology in fabricating solar cells. We will optimize the interface microstructure of device to increase the power conversion efficiency of this novel, low energy consumption and inexpensive solar cell. This research will play a positive role in theoretical study and performance improving of bulk heterojunction solar cells.
