Description

A kind of polymer solar battery and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to polymer solar battery field, particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of polymer solar battery and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Along with petering out of fossil energy (oil, coal, natural gas etc.), finding the green regenerative energy sources that can substitute fossil energy is one of focus of whole world research.In recent years, particularly rapid to the research of the development and utilization of solar energy.Photovoltaic solar cell refers to the device utilizing photovoltaic effect solar energy to be converted into electric energy.Organic photovoltaic solar cell (Organic Photovoltaic, OPV), especially polymer solar battery (Polymer Solar Cell, PSC) because of its cheapness, lightweight, flexibility, easily processing, large area the concern that advantage causes increasing researcher such as can to prepare.
1992, Heeger has found that quantity of photogenerated charge is from the polymer as electron donor (Donor or D) to the rush transfer process of the fullerene derivate as electron acceptor (Acceptor or A), and nineteen ninety-five reported first based on body heterojunction (Bulk Heterojunction, BHJ) photovoltaic cell, polymer solar battery field obtains and develops rapidly afterwards.So-called body heterojunction refers in body phase film, and electron donor and acceptor form the inierpeneirating network structure of many contact points, and each D/A contact point is a heterojunction, and whole film is bulk heteroj unction structure.BHJ film is generally electron donor and electron acceptor are dissolved in altogether in organic solvent, then be prepared into D phase by the method for rotary coating to interpenetrate and the film of each self-forming interpenetrating networks shape two-arch tunnel with A phase, this film is the active layer of polymer solar battery.
Scientific circles and industrial quarters are devoted to new electron donor, the design and synthesis of electron acceptor material mostly in recent years, the optimization of active layer membrance casting condition, and the aspect such as the optimization of device preparation technology.In polymer solar battery, the links of separation of charge and transmission all can affect the electricity conversion of battery.The exciton diffusion length of conjugated polymer only has about 10nm, but the light absorption length of organic material is approximately about 100nm, if the yardstick of D, A two-phase is far longer than 10nm, the electronics then dissociated at boundary and hole will in diffusion process compound again, cause the decline of separation of charge efficiency.In order to meet the condition of good spectral absorption and efficient exciton dissociation simultaneously, the two-phase of body heterojunction must mix in the size of exciton diffusion length.The continuity of network that formed of D, A two-phase and the farmland district size of D, A two-phase all can have influence on the mobility of charge carrier, the i.e. efficiency of transmission of charge carrier in D, A two-phase in addition.Therefore, need the thickness of adjustment active layer film, microscopic appearance and electron donor electron acceptor two-phase inierpeneirating network structure, thus reach the object regulating the generation of charge carrier, separation and transmission finally to improve polymer solar battery transformation efficiency.But electricity conversion of the prior art is still too low.
