Description

In-based semiconductor material, preparation method and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of semiconductor materials, in particular to an In-based semiconductor material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
With the rapid development of economy, the living standard of people is continuously improved, and the growth speed of the energy demand is increased. In order to cope with the upcoming energy crisis, new energy is developed, and the utilization of renewable energy becomes a central focus of the current development. Solar energy is rapidly becoming the focus of new energy development and utilization due to its unique advantages. The solar energy reserves are abundant, clean, can develop and utilize on the spot, do not have the transportation problem. Today, the conversion of solar radiation into electrical energy by the photovoltaic effect of solar cell semiconductor materials is one of the most common ways to utilize solar energy. However, most solar absorption semiconductors have a very low energy utilization rate for solar radiation, and how to improve the utilization range of solar spectrum is one of the most major problems in the development of solar cells. For a traditional solar energy absorption semiconductor material, the forbidden bandwidth is a fixed value, and only photons with energy close to the forbidden bandwidth can excite electrons in the valence band to the conduction band to form electron-hole pairs, so that photogenerated current is generated. This results in that the general semiconductor material can only absorb the energy spectrum close to the forbidden bandwidth of the semiconductor material in the solar spectrum, which greatly limits the efficiency of the solar cell.
At present, the optical absorption efficiency of the solar cell absorption layer is low, mainly due to the traditional semiconductor material (such as MgIn) 2 S 4 Material) can only absorb photons near the bandgap, while some photons below the bandgap energy cannot be absorbed by the semiconductor, and photons above the bandgap are difficult to utilize. The shortage of the impurity-carrying semiconductor material and the preparation technology are not mature enough, and the series of problems lead to the development of the impurity-carrying semiconductor to be hindered.
CN109037373A discloses MgIn 2 S 4 The solar energy absorbing material with the base intermediate band and the preparation method thereof adopt a Sn doping method to increase an electronic light absorption path and enhance the light absorption capacity. However, in the specific application process, a small amount of elemental Sn always remains in the finished semiconductor material finally prepared by doping Sn, the elemental Sn has 3 allotropes, and when the working condition is below 13 ℃, the volume of tin suddenly expands, so that the whole finished semiconductor material cracks, and normal use is affected.

The reinforced MgIn of the invention 2 S 4 The optical absorption method of the ternary compound is to induce the generation of an impurity energy band by using Sb, thereby realizing the broad spectrum absorption of the semiconductor material.
The In-based semiconductor material is applied to solar cells, photon up/down converters or photocatalysts.
The preparation method of the In-based semiconductor material comprises the following steps:
s1: grinding Mg powder, in particles, S powder and Sb blocks into powder according to the stoichiometric ratio, and then packaging the powder In a quartz glass tube In vacuum;

s3: and grinding the mixture into powder after sintering, packaging the powder In a quartz glass tube In vacuum, and repeating the S2 process to obtain the final In-based semiconductor material.
Furthermore, the sintering process comprises the steps of firstly programming the temperature to 600-700 ℃, then keeping the temperature within the range of 600-700 ℃ for 48-72 hours, and finally cooling to the room temperature.
Compared with the prior art, the invention provides a new method for improving MgIn 2 S 4 The method for adjusting the optical absorption range of the semiconductor material utilizes Sb element doping to regulate and control an energy band structure, enlarges the absorption range of the semiconductor material on a solar spectrum, successfully realizes the solar energy absorption of the multi-energy bandwidth spectrum, and the material component has potential application value in the fields of solar cells, photon up/down converters, photocatalysis and the like.
