Semiclassical theory of laser-assisted radiative recombination
摘要: We study the process of laser-assisted radiative recombination of an electron with a proton by using a semiclassical approach involving calculation of classical trajectories in combined laser and Coulomb fields. Due to chaotic scattering in the combined fields, the radiation probability as a function of the impact parameter and the constant phase of the laser field exhibits chaotic behavior and fractal structures. We obtain a strong enhancement of the recombination cross section as compared to the laser-free case due to the Coulomb focusing effect. For sufficiently low incident electron velocities the cross section becomes infinite, and we limit it by assuming a finite laser pulse duration. With the pulse duration tp = 5 ps we obtain the gain factor for capture into the ground state of the hydrogen atom of about 220 for infrared fields in the intensity range 109–1012 W/cm2. The gain factor grows with tp but slower than linearly.

Reduced Non-radiative Recombination Energy Loss Enabled Efficient Polymer Solar Cells via Tuning Alkyl Chain Positions on Pendent Benzene Units of Polymers
摘要: Non-radiative recombination energy loss (ΔE3) plays a key role in enhancing device efficiencies for polymer solar cells (PSCs). Up to now, there is no clear resolution for reducing ΔE3 via molecular design. Herein, we report two conjugated polymers, PBDB-P-p and PBDB-P-m, which are integrated from benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) with alkylthio chain substituted at para- or meta- position on pendent benzene and benzo[1,2-c:4,5-c′]dithiophene-4,8-dione (BDD). Two polymers have different temperature-dependent aggregation properties, but similar molecular energy levels. When BO-4Cl was used as acceptor to fabricate PSCs, the device of PBDB-P-p:BO-4Cl displayed a maximal power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 13.83%, while the best device of PBDB-P-m:BO-4Cl exhibited a higher PCE of 14.12%. The close JSCs and FFs in both PSCs are attributed to their formation of effective nanoscale phase-separation as confirmed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements. We find that the PBDB-P-m-based device has one order of magnitude higher of electroluminescence quantum efficiency (EQEEL) than that in PBDB-P-p-based one, which could arise from the relatively weak aggregation in PBDB-P-m-based film. Thus, the PBDB-P-m-based device has a remarkably enhanced VOC of 0.86 V in contrast to 0.80 V in PBDB-P-p-based device. This study offers a feasible structural optimization way on the alkylthio side chain substitute position on the conjugated polymer to enhance VOC by reducing non-radiative recombination energy loss in resulting PSCs.

Effect of Doping on the Luminescent Properties of LED Heterostructures with Quantum Wells
摘要: It is established that the model of interband radiative recombination in a semiconductor under bipolar injection of charge carriers, in which the recombination rate is described by the product of the total charge carrier concentrations, does not take into account the imbalance in the concentrations of recombining particles physically existing during doping. To calculate the number of electron-hole pair recombination events taking into account the difference in the concentrations of recombining particles, it is proposed to use the calculation of the reciprocal sum of the reciprocal concentrations using the participation functions. It is shown that at such a description of the number of recombination events, an increase in the doping impurity concentration reduces the number of events, but leaves the radiative recombination time unchanged at any injection level.

Tailoring Perovskite Adjacent Interfaces by Conjugated Polyelectrolyte for Stable and Efficient Solar Cells
摘要: Interface engineering is an effective means to enhance the performance of thin film devices, such as perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here, a conjugated polyelectrolyte, poly[(9,9-bis(3'-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethyl-ammonium)-propyl)-2,7-fluorene)-alt-2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)]di-iodide (PFN-I), is employed at the interfaces between the hole transport layer (HTL)/perovskite and perovskite/electron transport layer (ETL) simultaneously, to enhance the device power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability. The fabricated PSCs with an inverted planar heterojunction structure show improved open-circuit voltage (Voc), short-circuit current density (Jsc) and fill factor (FF), resulting in PCEs up to 20.56%. The devices maintain over 80% of their initial PCEs after 800 hours of exposure to a relative humidity 35-55 % at room temperature. All of these improvements are attributed to the functional PFN-I layers as they provide favorable interface contact and defect reduction.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Reciprocal relationship between photoluminescence and photocurrent in two-step photon up-conversion solar cell
摘要: Two-step photon up-conversion solar cell (TPU-SC) we have recently proposed is a single-junction solar cell containing a hetero-interface of different semiconductor materials. Although efficient two-step photon up-conversion is achieved in the TPU-SC, the detailed mechanism of intraband photoexcitation occurring at the hetero-interface is still unclear. In this study, we performed simultaneous measurements of photoluminescence and photocurrent as a function of the applying bias voltage in the TPU-SC. We experimentally demonstrate the reciprocity relationship between the radiative recombination and the photocurrent of the TPU-SC.

摘要: Non-radiative (NR) carrier recombination limits the efficiency of photovoltaic energy conversion. Minority carrier lifetimes in Si exhibit a variety of dependences on optical injection levels, depending on the types of defects present. To date, models of non-radiative recombination in silicon were proposed for point defects (e.g., Fe interstitials) and extended defects (e.g., dislocations). Direct measurement of local carrier concentration near recombination centers is technically difficult, therefore, computational modeling may be helpful to understand various carrier recombination pathways in materials such as mc-Si. In this paper, modeling is used to compare intensity-dependent NR recombination lifetimes in Si. The usefulness of the model goes beyond mc-Si photovoltaics.

Amphoteric imidazole doping induced large-grained perovskite with reduced defect density for high performance inverted solar cells
摘要: Intrinsic defect density in polycrystalline halide perovskite films are required to be low enough to suppress charge recombination loss for improvement in performance of perovskite solar cells (PeSCs). In this paper, we propose the use of amphoteric imidazole to achieve high crystalline quality of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite absorption layer. The imidazole additive plays a synergistic role in controlling the perovskite crystal growth for large grain size and passivating the uncoordinated ions (e.g., Pb2+) defects, resulting in improved carrier transport/lifetime and suppressed non-radiative recombination. The champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PeSCs with imidazole is improved to 16.88%, from the control device with a PCE value of 14.65%. Besides, the stability of imidazole modified perovskite films is further improved by limiting ion immigration at grain boundaries against moisture and heat stresses. The findings pave an avenue for synergistically modulating crystallization and healing defect in perovskite to achieve efficient and stable solar cells.

Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells by Reducing Interfacea??Mediated Recombination: a Bulky Amine Approach
摘要: The presence of non-radiative recombination at the perovskite surface/interface limits the overall efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Surface passivation has been demonstrated as an efficient strategy to suppress such recombination in Si cells. Here, 1-naphthylmethylamine iodide (NMAI) is judiciously selected to passivate the surface of the perovskite film. In contrast to the popular phenylethylammonium iodide, NMAI post-treatment primarily leaves NMAI salt on the surface of the perovskite film. The formed NMAI layer not only efficiently decreases the defect-assisted recombination for chemical passivation, but also retards the charge accumulation of energy level mis-alignment for vacuum level bending and prevents minority carrier recombination due to the charge-blocking effect. Consequently, planar PSCs with high efficiency of 21.04% and improved long-term stability (98.9% of the initial efficiency after 3240 h) are obtained. Moreover, open-circuit voltage as high as 1.20 V is achieved at the absorption threshold of 1.61 eV, which is among the highest reported values in planar PSCs. This work provides new insights into the passivation mechanisms of organic ammonium salts and suggests future guidelines for developing improved passivation layers.

Ba-induced phase segregation and band gap reduction in mixed-halide inorganic perovskite solar cells
摘要: All-inorganic metal halide perovskites are showing promising development towards efficient long-term stable materials and solar cells. Element doping, especially on the lead site, has been proved to be a useful strategy to obtain the desired film quality and material phase for high efficient and stable inorganic perovskite solar cells. Here we demonstrate a function by adding barium in CsPbI2Br. We find that barium is not incorporated into the perovskite lattice but induces phase segregation, resulting in a change in the iodide/bromide ratio compared with the precursor stoichiometry and consequently a reduction in the band gap energy of the perovskite phase. The device with 20 mol% barium shows a high power conversion efficiency of 14.0% and a great suppression of non-radiative recombination within the inorganic perovskite, yielding a high open-circuit voltage of 1.33 V and an external quantum efficiency of electroluminescence of 10?4.

Analysis of dominant non-radiative recombination mechanisms in InGaN green LEDs grown on silicon substrates
摘要: Relationship between the external quantum efficiency (EQE) curves and the dominant non-radiative recombination mechanisms of InGaN green LEDs grown on silicon substrates were investigated. Through the analysis of the ABC+(cid:1)(cid:2)(cid:3)(cid:4) model, the significant drop in EQE at low current levels is due to an increasingly defect-related Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) recombination. Under extremely low current densities, the defect traps can even become the dominant channel for the leakage current through the tunneling process, thereby reducing the efficiency of carrier injection into the active region. These observations were further supported by the carrier lifetime measurement. However, this fails to explain the droop in EQE at high current densities, especially when SRH recombination has been saturated. Our results show that carrier leakage has becomes dominant at high current density when Auger recombination has been less impossible. Reduced carrier leakage may lead to increased carrier injection efficiency, which in turn alleviates EQE droop.
