Preparation of high quality perovskite thin film in ambient air using ethylacetate as anti-solvent
摘要： Methylamine lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) perovskite thin film solar cell has attracted much attention due to its low cost and high photoelectric conversion efficiency. Preparation of high quality perovskite thin film is the key to obtain high conversion efficiency of solar cells. Here, the pinhole-free CH3NH3PbI3 layer with high coverage and smooth surface is prepared by the one-step solution method in air with ethylacetate as anti-solvent on an electron transport hybrid layer of TiO2 nanoparticles coated porous carbon. The effect of ethylacetate as anti-solvent on the quality of perovskite thin film is studied in detail by comparing with chlorobenzene and ethylether. The high saturation and humidity resistance of ethylacetate in air control the nucleation and growing kinetics of perovskite crystals during the spin coating process, which facilitates the formation of uniform pinhole-free perovskite thin films. The perovskite solar cell based on the prepared high quality thin film achieves the highest conversion efficiency of 17.41% in ambient air with a relative humidity of 35%, which is superior to the perovskite thin films prepared with chlorobenzene and ethylether (conversion efficiency of 10.80% and 10.20%). The higher light-to-electric conversion efficiency is due to high coverage of the pinhole-free perovskite thin film and good contact with the electron transport layer and the hole transport layer.

Dendritic PAMAM polymers for strong perovskite intergranular interaction enhancing power conversion efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells
摘要： The modification of perovskite intergranular perovskite/perovskite interface plays a critical role for power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this work, polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are utilized as the dendritic crystallization framework templating the perovskite-crystallizing process. The interactions at the perovskite intergranular interface are considerably strengthened at an ambient environment with dendritic PAMAMs crosslinking the perovskite grains. Consequently, the perovskite morphology is remarkably improved by suppressing the grain/grain-aggregate boundaries for the pinhole removal, which produces a compact, uniform and non-pinhole perovskite film. Finally, the strengthened interfacial interactions dramatically enhance the PCE value of unencapsulated PSCs about 42.6% at an ambient condition. Besides, the unencapsulated PAMAM-modified device can keep 73% of initial PCE value in 400 h while the control device decays to 5% of initial PCE value in 50 h. These results reveal that dendritic polymers might remarkably improve the PCE value and the stability of PSCs. This work provides a new molecular design guideline to effectively regulate the perovskite intergranular interfacial interactions.

Au@Ag@Ag2S heterogeneous plasmonic nanorods for enhanced dye-sensitized solar cell performance
摘要： Au@Ag@Ag2S heterogeneous nanorods (NRs) with two strong plasmonic absorptive bands were developed for boosting the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells, and the remarkably enhanced plasmonic devices were achieved. By doping different concentrations of the Au@Ag@Ag2S NRs within the TiO2 photoanode layers, various enhanced effects of the plasmonic devices were obtained. With the incorporation of the typical Au@Ag@Ag2S NRs (their aspect ratios: 2.7) into the TiO2 photoanodes, the top efficiency of 6.51% of the fabricated plasmonic photovoltaic devices at their doped concentrations of the 2.31% was observed, exhibiting dramatic 40% enhancement than that of the conventional dye-sensitized solar cells (bare device: 4.65%). Benefiting from effective surface plasmon effects of the Au@Ag@Ag2S NRs, the light-harvesting abilities of photoanodes and dyes in devices are dramatically enhanced, which in return boost the whole performance of photovoltaic devices significantly.

Stabilizing silver window electrodes for organic photovoltaics using a mercaptosilane monolayer
摘要： A single layer of the bifunctional molecule 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane is shown to be remarkably effective at improving the stability of optically thin silver film electrodes towards spontaneous morphological change and oxidation by airborne sulfur. Inclusion of this layer in the novel transparent electrode; WO3 (30 nm) / silver (13 nm) / sol-gel ZnO (27 nm), at the silver / ZnO interface improves the efficiency of organic photovoltaic devices using this electrode by 20%, such that the power conversion efficiency is very close to that achievable using a conventional indium-tin oxide glass electrode; 9.6 % – 0.2 % vs 10.0 % – 0.3 %, with the advantage that the silver electrode has a sheet resistance one third that of the ITO glass ((cid:3)4 Ohms sq-1). The mercaptosilane monolayer is also shown to retard silver diffusion into the ZnO layer whilst imparting a favorable (cid:3)400 meV reduction in electrode work function. In addition to its utility inside the device, this molecular layer is shown to be useful for improving the stability of the silver film electrodes in top-illuminated semi-transparent photovoltaics, since it can be deposited directly onto a completed device from the vapor phase.

Evaluation of solar factor using spectral analysis for CdTe photovoltaic glazing
摘要： Solar and luminous light transmission control using Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) based PV glazing systems (15cm × 15 cm × 0.6 cm) were evaluated in this work. Indoor spectral characterisation showed that average solar transmission for investigated three different CdTe glazing systems were 5.77% (CdTe1), 9.54% (CdTe2) and 12.34% (CdTe3). Spectral behaviour of reflections in the range of solar and visible wavelengths was similar for these three different transparent CdTe glazing. Near infrared (NIR) reflection was higher compared to luminous reflection after 1500 nm for all three glazing systems. Solar factor (SF) for CdTe1, CdTe2 and CdTe3 glazing were 0.23, 0.28, 0.26. CdTe3 is the best candidate for glazing application as it has 113% higher luminous transmission while SF only increases by 21% compared to CdTe1.

Nickel Selenide Nanoparticles as a Cheap Alternative for Pt-Counter Electrode in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
摘要： Colloidal nickel selenide nanocrystals (NCs) of two different compositions i.e., Ni3Se2 and Ni3Se4, where one is Ni-rich while another is Se-rich are synthesized using the hot injection method by merely changing the injection and growth temperature while keeping the rest of the reaction conditions like solvent, ligands, amount of precursors and reaction time identical. These nanocrystals exhibit electrocatalytic activity in the reduction of triiodide (I?3) to iodide (3I?), therefore employed as counter electrodes (CE) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The DSC based on nickel selenides displays an efficiency of 6.4%, comparable to the Pt-based cells prepared by us.

Design of an intermediate Bragg reflector within triple-junction solar cells for spectrum splitting applications
摘要： We investigate the use of distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) within triple-junction solar cells (TJSC) for spectrum splitting photovoltaics. An optical model of a lattice-matched (LM) GaInP/GaInAs/Ge TJSC with intermediate DBR is developed, in good agreement with measured reflectance. By modifying the DBR layer number, composition and thickness to broaden the reflectance band, we show that a DBR can provide suitable 900–1050 nm reflectance for spectrum splitting from the LM TJSC to a Si cell, resulting in a more efficient 4-junction receiver. For better practicality and cost effectiveness, we propose that the buffer layers in metamorphic (MM) TJSCs could additionally function as a DBR for spectrum splitting applications. We propose several DBR designs to achieve a suitable spectrum-splitting reflectance band from MM TJSCs to a Si cell, again resulting in a more efficient 4-junction receiver. Finally, we show that our intermediate DBR approach to spectrum splitting has the advantage of a greatly reduced angle-of-incidence dependence compared to a discrete dielectric filter.

摘要： The use of intermediate distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) is investigated. Optical models for both commercial lattice-matched (LM) and metamorphic (MM) GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells (TJSCs) are developed, in good agreement with measured reflectance. Integrating a suitable DBR structure into a TJSC has the potential to provide the required IR reflectance for spectrum splitting from the LM and MM TJSC to a Si cell. We show that the intermediate DBR approach to spectrum splitting has the advantage of a greatly reduced angle-of-incidence dependence compared to a discrete dielectric filter.

Modification of TiO <sub/>2</sub> (1?1?0)/organic hole transport layer interface energy levels by a dipolar perylene derivative
摘要： Our photoemission study reveals that the work function of TiO2(1 1 0) decreases by up to 1.5 eV upon deposition of 9-(bis-(p-(tert-octyl)phenyl)amino)-perylene-3,4-dicarboxylic anhydride (BOPA-PDCA). This effect is attributed to a chemical reaction of TiO2(1 1 0) and the molecular anhydride group, as well as the molecular dipole. Analysis of the film thickness dependent photoemission and metastable atom electron spectroscopy data reveals that for low coverage the perylene backbone of BOPA-PDCA is almost parallel to the substrate surface and higher coverage leads to an orientational transition to essentially upright standing molecules. Comparing the energy-level alignment between TiO2(1 1 0) and the hole transport materials N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenyl-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (NPB) without and with the BOPA-PDCA interlayer, we find that the perylene derivative has a positive impact on the level alignment for dye-sensitized solar cells with high open-circuit voltages.

A path-finding toward high-efficiency penternary Cu(In,Ga)(Se,S)2 thin film solar module
摘要： The optimal p-n junction structure in a state-of-the-art Cu(In,Ga)(Se,S)2 thin-film solar module technology is investigated. For co-optimization design and path-finding, a TCAD model is developed with experimental samples. The engineerable parameters, i.e., FGa, GGIavg, and CdS thickness, are demonstrated to play a critical role in determining the p-n junction properties such as dark current characteristics Jdark(V), voltage-dependent photocurrent, localized carrier collection efficiency, and interface carrier transportation. We show the optimal Ga-grading is determined by a trade-off between the recombination loss in space charge region and the photo-carrier collection in quasi-neutral region. The optimal CdS thickness is determined by a trade-off between carrier collection efficiency, short-circuit current (JSC) loss, and Jdark(V), which depends on varied Ga-profiles. Overall, thin CdS (≦10 nm) is preferred to reduce the JSC loss in accumulated Ga-profiles, while thicker CdS is preferred to enhance the carrier collection efficiency in flatter Ga-profiles. The band alignment effect on varied Cu(In,Ga)(Se,S)2/CdS junctions is also investigated. It is found sulfur-incorporation can suppress the VOC saturation behavior at wide bandgap. For CIGSeS absorber with SS = 20% and DP =15%, the maximum VOC of 780 mV can be achieved by co-optimized Ga-profile. Furthermore, varied Ga-profiles and CdS buffer layers are explored for pathfinding. An optimal p-n junction structure shows a relative +40% efficiency improvement from 15.5% to 21.9%. This work shows the efficiency headroom of reported CIGSeS thin-film solar module technology through co-optimized CIGSeS composition gradient and buffer layer.
