We report here synthesis and photovoltaic properties of three merocyanines dyes (DPPT, DTPT, 1-NPPT) which are functionalized with electron withdrawing thiazolidenemalononitrile and electron rich diarylamine functionalities. It is found that structural feature of the diarylamino groups has a profound effect on the physical properties such as the absorption spectrum, oxidation potential, and HOMO/LUMO energy levels. The compound DTPT containing a better electron-donating ditolyl group, exhibits red-shifted absorption with relatively higher molar extinction coefficient, indicating its better light-harvesting ability. Hole mobility of these compounds is found to be strongly dependent on the various intermolecular interactions. Interestingly, single crystal structures reveal that the crystal packing motifs are rather closely related to the observed hole mobility in a trend of DPPT > DTPT > 1-NPPT. Vacuum-processed small-molecule organic solar cells were fabricated using the title merocyanines as p-type materials (donor) in combination with fullerene (C60 or C70) as n-type material (acceptor) with various device configurations. Among them, the DPPT-based devices outperform the devices based on DTPT and 1-NPPT. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of DPPT-based device was improved from 1.55% of a BHJ device to 2.63% of a PMHJ device and 3.52% of a PMHJ device without the thin donor layer.  相似文献

Accelerated tests were used to study potential‐induced degradation (PID) in photovoltaic (PV) modules fabricated from silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells containing tungsten‐doped indium oxide (IWO) transparent conductive films on both sides of the cells and a rear‐side emitter. A negative bias of −1000 V was applied to a module with respect to the cover glass surface in a chamber maintained at 85°C, which significantly reduced the cell's short‐circuit current density (Jsc) within several days. Based on dark current density‐voltage and external quantum efficiency measurements, the reduction in the Jsc was attributed to optical losses rather than carrier recombination. X‐ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy showed the formation of metallic indium (In) in the IWO layers of a degraded cell, which suggests that the root cause of the optical loss was a darkening of the front IWO layers caused by the precipitation of metallic In. In extremely severe PID tests, the SHJ PV modules exhibited not only a further reduction in the Jsc but also a moderate reduction in the open‐circuit voltage (Voc). These Jsc and Voc reductions were probably caused by sodium being introduced into the base region of the cells. A comparison of the PID test results of the SHJ PV modules with those of other types of PV modules indicates that SHJ PV modules have a relatively high resistance to PID. As a module with an ionomer encapsulant exhibited little degradation, their high resistances to PID may be further improved by using encapsulants with high electrical resistances.  相似文献

We have achieved a very high conversion efficiency of 21·5% in HIT cells with a size of 100·3 cm2. One of the most striking features of the HIT cell is its high open‐circuit voltage Voc, in excess of 710 mV. This is due to the excellent surface passivation at the a‐Si/c‐Si heterointerface realized by Sanyo's successful technologies for fabricating high‐quality a‐Si films and solar cells with low plasma damage processes. We have studied ways to treat the surface to produce a good interface throughout our fabrication processes. We have also investigated the deposition conditions of a‐Si layers for optimizing the barrier height for the minority carriers in the heterojunction. Our approach for obtaining HIT cells with a high Voc is reviewed here. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Although tin halide perovskite has shown excellent photoelectric performance, its efficiency of solar cell is low compared with that of lead halide. In order to enhance the efficiency of tin halide perovskite solar cell, a deep understanding of the role of the defects in the perovskite absorption layer and at the electron transport layer (ETL)/absorber or absorber/hole transport layer (HTL) interface is very necessary. In this work, the planar heterojunction-based CH3NH3SnI3 perovskite solar cells were simulated with the SCAPS-1D program. Simulation results revealed a great dependence of device efficiency on defect density and interface quality of the perovskite absorber. The defect density at the front interface is critical for high efficiency, and the polarity of the interface charge has a different impact on the device efficiency. Strikingly, an efficiency over 29% was obtained under the moderate simulation conditions.  相似文献

An Al0.13GalnP sub-cell used as the top cell in the next generation of high efficiency multi-junction solar cells is fabricated. An efficiency of 10.04% with 1457.3 mV in Voc and 11.9 mA/cm2 in Isc was obtained. QE comparison was carried out to verify the influence of an O-related defect introduced by the high Al-content materials on the cell performance during MOCVD growth. Hetero-structures are employed to confirm the origin of the decreasing short circuit current density compared to a GalnP single junction solar cell. An effective method to improve the performance of broadband solar cells by increasing Isc with a cost of Voc was proposed.  相似文献

Interdigitated back contact silicon heterojunction (IBC‐SHJ) solar cells have the potential for high open circuit voltage (VOC) due to the surface passivation and heterojunction contacts, and high short circuit current density (JSC) due to all back contact design. Intrinsic amorphous silicon (a‐Si:H) buffer layer at the rear surface improve the surface passivation hence VOC and JSC, but degrade fill factor (FF) from an “S” shape JV curve. Two‐dimensional (2D) simulation using “Sentaurus device” demonstrates that the low FF is related to the valence band offset (energy barrier) at the hetero‐interface. Three approaches to the buffer layer are suggested to improve the FF: (1) reduced thickness, (2) increased conductivity, and/or (3) reduced band gap. Experimental IBC‐SHJ solar cells with reduced buffer thickness (<5 nm) and increased conductivity with low boron doping significantly improves FF, consistent with simulation. However, this has only marginal effect on efficiency since JSC and VOC also decrease due to poor surface passivation. A narrow band gap a‐Si:H buffer layer improves cell efficiency to 13.5% with unoptimized passivation quality. These results demonstrate that tailoring the hetero‐interface band structure is critical for achieving high FF. Simulations predicts that efficiences >23% are possible on planar devices with optimized pitch dimensions and achievable surface passivation, and 26% with light trapping. This work provides criterion to design IBC‐SHJ solar cell structures and optimize cell performance. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Exhibiting outstanding optoelectronic properties, antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) has attracted considerable interest and has been developed as a light absorber layer for thin-film solar cells over the decade. However, current state-of-the-art Sb2Se3 devices suffer from unsatisfactory “cliff-like” band alignment and severe interface recombination loss, which deteriorates device performance. In this study, the heterojunction interface of an Sb2Se3 solar cell is improved by introducing effective aluminum (Al3+) cation into the CdS buffer layer. Then, the energy band alignment of Sb2Se3/CdS:Al heterojunction is modified from a “cliff-like” structure to a “spike-like” structure. Finally, heterojunction interface engineering suppresses recombination losses and strengthens carrier transport, resulting in a high efficiency of 8.41% for the substrate-structured Sb2Se3 solar cell. This study proposes a facile strategy for interfacial treatment and elucidates the related carrier transport enhancement mechanism, paving a bright avenue to overcome the efficiency bottleneck of Sb2Se3 thin-film solar cells.  相似文献

A series of alternating copolymers of cyclopenta[2,1‐b;3,4‐b′]dithiophene (CPDT) and thieno[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐4,6‐dione (TPD) have been prepared and characterized for polymer solar cell (PSC) applications. Different alkyl side chains, including butyl (Bu), hexyl (He), octyl (Oc), and 2‐ethylhexyl (EH), are introduced to the TPD unit in order to adjust the packing of the polymer chain in the solid state, while the hexyl side chain on the CPDT unit remains unchanged to simplify discussion. The polymers in this series have a simple main chain structure and can be synthesized easily, have a narrow band gap and a broad light absorption. The different alkyl chains on the TPD unit not only significantly influence the solubility and chain packing, but also fine tune the energy levels of the polymers. The polymers with Oc or EH group have lower HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) and LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) energy levels, resulting higher open circuit voltages (Voc) of the PSC devices. Power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) up to 5.5% and 6.4% are obtained from the devices of the Oc substituted polymer (PCPDTTPD‐Oc) with PC61BM and PC71BM, respectively. This side chain effect on the PSC performance is related to the formation of a fine bulk heterojunction structure of polymer and PCBM domains, as observed with atomic force microscopy.  相似文献

Solvent additives provide an effective means to alter the morphology and thereby improve the performance of organic bulk‐heterojunction photovoltaics, although guidelines for selecting an appropriate solvent additive remain relatively unclear. Here, a family of solvent additives spanning a wide range of Hansen solubility parameters is applied to a molecular bulk‐heterojunction system consisting of an isoindigo and thiophene containing oligomer as the electron donor and [6,6]‐phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) as the electron acceptor. Hansen solubility parameters are calculated using the group contribution method and compared with the measured solubilities for use as a screening method in solvent additive selection. The additives are shown to alter the morphologies in a semipredictable manner, with the poorer solvents generally resulting in decreased domain sizes, increased hole mobilities, and improved photovoltaic performance. The additives with larger hydrogen bonding parameters, namely triethylene glycol (TEG) and N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NMP), are demonstrated to increase the open circuit voltage by ~0.2 V. Combining a solvent additive observed to increase short circuit current, poly(dimethylsiloxane), with TEG results in an increase in power conversion efficiency from 1.4 to 3.3%.  相似文献

The performance of multijunction solar cells has been measured over a range of temperatures and illumination intensities. Temperature coefficients have been extracted for three‐junction cell designs that are in production and under development. A simple diode model is applied to the three‐junction performance as a means to predict performance under operating conditions outside the test range. These data may be useful in guiding the future optimization of concentrator solar cells and systems. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Heterojunction and sandwich architectures are two new-type structures with great potential for solar cells. Specifically, the heterojunction structure possesses the advantages of efficient charge separation but suffers from band offset and large interface recombination; the sandwich configuration is favorable for transferring carriers but requires complex fabrication process. Here, we have designed two thin-film polycrystalline solar cells with novel structures:sandwich CIGS and heterojunction perovskite, referring to the advantages of the architectures of sandwich perovskite (standard) and heterojunction CIGS (standard) solar cells, respectively. A reliable simulation software wxAMPS is used to investigate their inherent characteristics with variation of the thickness and doping density of absorber layer. The results reveal that sandwich CIGS solar cell is able to exhibit an optimized efficiency of 20.7%, which is much higher than the standard heterojunction CIGS structure (18.48%). The heterojunction perovskite solar cell can be more efficient employing thick and doped perovskite films (16.9%) than these typically utilizing thin and weak-doping/intrinsic perovskite films (9.6%). This concept of structure modulation proves to be useful and can be applicable for other solar cells.  相似文献

Photovoltaic performance of cross‐linkable Ru(2,2′‐bipyridine‐4,4′‐bicarboxylic acid)(4,4′‐bis((4‐vinyl benzyloxy)methyl)‐2,2′‐bipyridine)(NCS)2 (denoted as RuS dye) adsorbing on TiO2 mesoporous film was enhanced by polymerizing with either ionic liquid monomer, 1‐(2‐acryloyloxy‐ethyl)‐3‐methyl‐imidazol‐1‐ium iodide (AMImI), to form RuS‐cross‐AMImI or di‐functional acrylic monomer with ether linkage, triethyleneglycodimethacrylate (TGDMA), to form RuS‐cross‐TGDMA. Their cross‐linking properties were investigated by UV–vis spectroscopy by rinsing with 0.1 N NaOH aqueous solution. The power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with RuS‐cross‐AMImI and RuS‐cross‐TGDMA both reached over 8% under standard global air mass 1.5 full sunlight. The increased PCE for DSSCs with RuS‐cross‐AMImI comparing with cross‐linked RuS was attributed to the I counterion of AMImI increasing the charge regeneration rate of RuS dye, whereas that with RuS‐cross‐TGDMA was attributed to the Li+ coordination property of TGDMA. The photovoltaic performance of RuS‐cross‐TGDMA was also slightly better than that of RuS‐cross‐AMImI because of higher open‐circuit photovoltage (Voc) and short‐circuit photocurrent (Jsc). Its higher Voc was supported by the Bode plot of impedance under illumination and Nyquist plots at dark, whereas higher Jsc was supported by the incident monochromatic photon‐to‐current conversion efficiency spectra and charge extraction experiments.

The spectral response of concentrator multijunction solar cells has been measured over a temperature range of 25–75°C. These data are combined with reference spectra representing the AM1·5 standard as well as annual spectral irradiance at representative geographical locations. The results suggest that higher performance in the field may be obtained if multijunction cells are designed for an effective air mass higher than AM1·5.

Thin film hetero‐emitter solar cells with large‐grained poly‐silicon absorbers of around 10 µm thickness have been prepared on glass. The basis of the cell concept is electron‐beam‐crystallization of an amorphous or nanocrystalline silicon layer deposited onto a SiC:B layer. The SiC:B layer covers a commercially well available glass substrate, serving as diffusion barrier, contact layer and dopand source. For silicon absorber deposition a low pressure chemical vapour deposition was used. The successively applied e‐beam crystallization process creates poly‐silicon layers with grain sizes up to 1 × 10 mm2 with low defect densities. The high electronic quality of the absorber is reflected in open circuit voltages as high as 545 mV, which are realized making use of the well‐developed a‐Si:H hetero‐emitter technology.

We show the benefits of spatially resolved pseudo fill factor analysis on multicrystalline silicon solar cells. Hereby, we present a method based on quasi‐steady‐state photoluminescence‐calibrated photoluminescence images at varying generation rate. We verify the method by a comparison with global and local Suns‐Voc measurements and apply Suns‐PLI to multicrystalline heterojunction samples with and without conductive top layer, the latter being not accessible by Suns‐Voc. Thereby, we obtain detailed insight into the influence of injection‐dependent local recombination on fill factor and of losses only due to recombination‐driven lateral balancing currents. The conclusions are supported by Spice network simulations. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Molecularly engineered weakly conjugated hybrid porphyrin systems are presented as efficient sensitizers for solid‐state dye‐sensitized solar cells. By incorporating the quinolizino acridine and triazatruxene based unit as the secondary light‐harvester as well as electron‐donating group at the meso‐position of the porphyrin core, the power conversion efficiencies of 4.5% and 5.1% are demonstrated in the solid‐state devices containing 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis (N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9′‐spiro bifluorene as hole transporting material. The photovoltaic performance of the triazatruxene donor based porphyrin sensitizer is better than that of the previously published porphyrin molecules exhibiting strongly conjugated push–pull structure. The effect of molecular structure on the optical and electrochemical properties, the dynamics of charge extraction, as well as the photovoltaic performance are systematically investigated, which offers a new design strategy for further refinement of porphyrin molecules.  相似文献

A laser‐fired contact (LFC) process is one of the techniques for making local electrical contacts at the rear side of passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC) solar cells. In the LFC process, opening of the passivated dielectric layers and alloying of Si and Al need to be made in a single step laser process. For this reason, the LFC process is accompanied by the loss of Al and the laser damage to the Si wafer. In this study, we present a novel multistep LFC process combining the conventional LFC and laser‐induced forward transfer (LIFT) processes. The modified LFC scheme we proposed consists of three steps: (a) opening of the passivation layers and partial alloying of Al‐Si, (b) additional deposition of Al on the local contact holes, and (c) post laser firing of the transferred Al. Applying the modified LFC process to the PERC cells of 1.0 cm2 of area, we demonstrate the effective recombination velocity of the laser‐processed wafers can be remarkably reduced while maintaining the low contact resistance. The best of the PERC solar cell fabricated by the modified LFC process exhibited an efficiency of 19.5% while the conventional LFC‐PERC cell showed 18.6%. The efficiency gains of the modified LFC‐PERC cells was largely contributed by the enhanced open circuit voltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF).  相似文献
