研究目的
Investigating the application of silicon nanocrystal hybrid photovoltaic devices for indoor light energy harvesting.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated SiNC-HPVs with a PCE of up to 3.0% under standard solar irradiation and 9.7% under indoor light, indicating their potential for indoor energy harvesting systems. Thermal annealing at temperatures below 200°C effectively reduced SiNC defects, though performance slightly deteriorated due to SiNC aggregation.
研究不足
The study notes that thermally treated SiNCs tend to form aggregates in the polymer matrix, slightly deteriorating device performance. Further improvement is needed to suppress agglomeration during low-temperature annealing.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the synthesis of silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) using nonthermal plasma CVD, followed by thermal annealing to reduce crystal defects. The SiNCs were then blended with p-type semiconducting polymers to form photoactive layers for hybrid photovoltaic devices.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
SiNCs with a mean particle size of 6 nm were synthesized. The performance of the devices was measured under standard solar and indoor light irradiation.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a nonthermal plasma CVD system, spin-coater, digital current–voltage source meter, and SEM. Materials included SiCl4, H2, Ar, PTB7, PTB7-Th, and PEDOT:PSS.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involved SiNC synthesis, thermal annealing, device fabrication by spin-coating, and performance measurement under light irradiation.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The performance parameters such as PCE, JSC, VOC, and FF were analyzed from the J–V characteristics.
