研究目的
Investigating the use of ternary metal oxides, specifically zinc tin oxide (ZTO), as efficient electron transport layers (ETLs) for planar perovskite solar cells to improve device performance and stability.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated the use of ZTO as an efficient ETL for perovskite solar cells, with the Zn1Sn1Ox/SnO2 bilayer ETL configuration achieving a high PCE of 19.01% and superior stability. The findings suggest that ternary metal oxides and interfacial engineering are viable approaches to enhance the performance and stability of perovskite photovoltaic devices.
研究不足
The study acknowledges the presence of hysteresis in the devices, which could affect the accuracy of performance measurements. Additionally, the long-term stability tests were conducted in a controlled environment, which may not fully represent real-world operating conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the fabrication of binary and ternary oxide layers as ETLs for perovskite solar cells. The ternary oxides were synthesized by varying the molar ratios of zinc to tin. A thin SnO2 interlayer was introduced between the ZTO and perovskite layers to form a bilayer ETL structure.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
FTO glass substrates were used as the base for the solar cells. The perovskite solution was prepared using specific precursors dissolved in DMF and DMSO.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a spin coater for film deposition, UV-VIS spectrophotometer for absorption measurements, and a Keithley 2612A source meter for J-V characterization. Materials included zinc acetate dihydrate, tin(II) chloride dihydrate, and Spiro-OMeTAD for the hole-transporting layer.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The ETLs were spin-coated onto FTO substrates, followed by annealing. The perovskite layer was then deposited using a two-step spin-coating method, and the devices were completed with the addition of a Spiro-OMeTAD layer and gold electrodes.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The performance of the solar cells was evaluated through J-V measurements, IPCE spectra, and stability tests under controlled conditions.
