The 2009 Miyasaka subject group first identified perovskite materials (CH)3NH3PbI3) Selected as sensitizationThe preparation is applied to a solar cell, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of 3.8 percent is obtained. With continuous development of new materials and optimization of preparation processes by researchers, battery efficiency is continuously refreshed and stability is further improved, and by far, the maximum photoelectric conversion efficiency of the PSCs is broken through by 22%. The battery device still adopts the conventional structure (c-TiO)2/m-TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3/spiro-OMeTAD/Au), the PSCs based on the structure have high photoelectric conversion efficiency, but are not suitable for commercial application. In 2013, the Han topic group introduced carbon counter electrodes for the first time in the developed printable PSCs and achieved 6.64% photoelectric conversion efficiency. The PSCs can be printed.
In the preparation of printable PSCs, CH3NH3PbI3And finally dripping the precursor solution onto the carbon counter electrode in a dripping mode. In addition, the mesoporous layer, the spacer layer and the carbon counter electrode are main structures, and the three-layer film needs to be sintered at high temperature after being printed. Because the sintering temperature is higher, a large amount of energy is consumed in the preparation process of the battery device, and in addition, the temperature rise and temperature drop stage in the sintering process takes a quite long time, so that the preparation period of the battery device is longer, and the preparation efficiency of the battery is influenced. In order to save energy and reduce the manufacturing cycle, it is necessary to optimize the manufacturing process of the battery device. Based on the method, the spacer layer and the carbon counter electrode in the preparation process of the full-printing perovskite solar cell are sintered together, and compared with the conventional method, the battery performance obtained by simplifying the sintering step is higher, the battery performance keeps the original efficiency, the battery preparation time is shortened, and the energy consumption in the battery preparation process is reduced.
