锡基钙钛矿太阳能电池载流子传输层的探讨

锡基钙钛矿太阳能电池可避免铅元素对环境带来的污染,近年来已成为光伏领域的研究热点.本文以SCAPS-1D太阳能电池数值模拟软件为平台,对不同电子传输层和不同空穴传输层的锡基钙钛矿太阳能电池器件的性能进行数值仿真对比,从理论上分析不同载流子传输层的锡基钙钛矿太阳能电池的性能差异.结果显示,载流子传输层与钙钛矿层的能带对齐对电池性能至关重要.电子传输层具有更高的导带或电子准费米能级以及空穴传输层具有更低的价带或空穴准费米能级时,对电池输出更大的开路电压有促进作用.另外,当电子传输层的导带高于钙钛矿层导带或钙钛矿层的价带高于空穴传输层的价带时,钙钛矿层与载流子传输层界面形成spike势垒,界面复合机制相对较弱,促使电池获得更佳的性能.当Cd0.5Zn0.5S和MASnBr3分别作为电子传输层和空穴传输层时,与其他材料相比,获得了更优的输出特性:开路电压Voc=0.94 V,短路电流密度Jsc=30.35 mA/cm^2,填充因子FF=76.65%,功率转换效率PCE=21.55%,可认为Cd0.5Zn0.5S和MASnBr3是设计锡基钙钛矿太阳能电池结构合适的载流子传输层材料.这些模拟结果有助于实验上设计并制备高性能的锡基钙钦矿太阳能电池.

Intrinsic Instability of the Hybrid Halide Perovskite Semiconductor CH_3NH_3PbI_3

The organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite CH_3NH_3PbI_3 has attracted significant interest for its high performance in converting solar light into electrical power with an efficiency exceeding 20%. Unfortunately, chemical stability is one major challenge in the development of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 solar cells. It was commonly assumed that moisture or oxygen in the environment causes the poor stability of hybrid halide perovskites, however, here we show from the first-principles calculations that the room-temperature tetragonal phase of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the phase separation into CH_3NH_3I + PbI_2, i.e., the disproportionation is exothermic,independent of the humidity or oxygen in the atmosphere. When the structure is distorted to the low-temperature orthorhombic phase, the energetic cost of separation increases, but remains small. Contributions from vibrational and configurational entropy at room temperature have been considered, but the instability of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 is unchanged. When I is replaced by Br or Cl, Pb by Sn, or the organic cation CH_3NH_3 by inorganic Cs, the perovskites become more stable and do not phase-separate spontaneously. Our study highlights that the poor chemical stability is intrinsic to CH_3NH_3PbI_3 and suggests that element-substitution may solve the chemical stability problem in hybrid halide perovskite solar cells.     

双钙钛矿卤化物Cs2AgFeX6（X = Cl，Br，I）电子结构和光学性质的第一性原理研究

近年来,银卤化物双钙钛矿作为铅基杂化卤化物钙钛矿的潜在环保替代品得到了广泛的研究。最近实验上合成的新型无铅双钙钛矿单晶材料Cs2AgFeCl6是一种立方结构半导体,吸收光谱可拓宽至800 nm。本论文采用密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法,对Cs2AgFeX6（X = Cl,Br,I）的电子结构和光学性质进行研究,讨论了二者之间的内在关联,并分析了X位元素的改变对材料性质的影响。电荷密度计算结果显示,由Cl到I,Fe-X键逐渐减弱,即原子对电荷的束缚能力减弱。另一方面,三种材料的带隙宽度是逐渐减小的,Cs2AgFeCl6和Cs2AgFeBr6带隙分别为1.40 eV和0.91 eV,而Cs2AgFeI6则呈现金属性质。Cs2AgFeX6双钙钛矿的光谱特征峰随 X 位原子序数的增加明显红移,且在可见至红外光波段均有明显的光吸收：Cs2AgFeCl6在534 nm处的吸收系数达到21.28×104 cm-1,Cs2AgFeBr6在712 nm处的吸收系数为20.54×104 cm-1,而Cs2AgFeI6在1200 nm后的红外波段有一极宽的吸收峰,吸收系数可以达到10×104 cm-1。本论文为Cs2AgFeX6（X = Cl,Br,I）在光电子器件领域的广泛应用提供了理论指导。     

真空闪蒸法制备钙钛矿薄膜的光学性质研究

近年来,以有机无机杂化铅卤钙钛矿为吸光层的薄膜太阳能电池受到了广泛的关注,不到十年时间其光电转换效率已经从3.8%提高到了23%,这主要归因于有机铅卤钙钛矿材料光吸收系数高,带隙合适并易于调控,电子-空穴扩散长度长等优点。2016年Gr?tzelL等人利用低气压快速去除薄膜前驱体溶剂的方法,获得了高质量的甲脒和溴离子掺杂钙钛矿薄膜。相比于其他传统的溶液制备方法,这种方法能够很好的解决大面积均匀性的问题,为高效率、大面积钙钛矿太阳电池产业化提供了可能。钙钛矿薄膜的成份、结构及其光学性能对于太阳电池的器件性能起决定性作用,因此在该制备技术下,研究不同掺杂种类钙钛矿薄膜对光学性质的影响具有积极的意义。利用真空闪蒸溶液技术制备了3种成分的钙钛矿薄膜,利用扫描电镜、 X射线衍射,吸收光谱和荧光光谱等表征手段对薄膜的形貌、结构和光学性质进行了研究。结果表明,该技术可以用于制备均匀致密、无针孔的高质量甲脒、溴离子掺杂和氯离子掺杂的钙钛矿薄膜(成分分别为(FAPbI3)0.85(MAPbBr3)0.15,MA3PbI3和MAPb(IxCl1-x)3),薄膜中晶粒的尺寸分别为500, 100和200 nm左右;薄膜的形成过程为溶剂中的DMSO与钙钛矿配位,并在真空闪蒸过程中快速形成相对稳定中间相,经过加热后,薄膜中的DMSO被去除并形成钙钛矿晶体,结构为四方相;甲脒、溴离子和氯离子掺杂的薄膜对可见光有强烈的吸收作用,薄膜吸收边均在750 nm左右;薄膜的掺杂对带隙宽度没有明显影响, 3种成份的薄膜带隙宽度位于1.6 eV左右;甲基胺碘化铅的荧光发射峰在765 nm,甲脒和溴离子掺杂后发光峰位红移至774 nm,氯离子掺杂后薄膜峰位处于761 nm,有微弱的蓝移,且强度出现下降。这可能是晶粒尺寸和薄膜内部缺陷变化导致的。     

Photoinduced Migration of Ions in Optically Resonant Perovskite Nanoparticles

Organic–inorganic perovskites with a mixed anion composition are widely used in solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and nanophotonic structures. Light nanosources based on resonant perovskite nanoparticles are of particular interest. However, perovskites with such a composition demonstrate the light-induced segregation of anions, which leads to a reversible dynamic rearrangement of the optical properties of a material and photoluminescence spectra. In this work, the photoinduced process of change in optical properties in resonant hybrid perovskite nanoparticles with a mixed anion composition (MAPbBr_1.5I_1.5, where MA = NH₃CH ₃ ⁺ ) has been studied. Comparison with a similar process in a perovskite thin film with a similar composition has shown that the photoinduced migration of halogen ions in a nanoparticle occurs cyclically. This is due to the competition of two processes: the concentration of ions near the boundaries of the particle and migration caused by the gradient of the density of light-generated electron–hole pairs. This effect in resonant nanoparticles makes it possible to obtain optically tunable nanoantennas.     

Could two-dimensional perovskites fundamentally solve the instability of perovskite photovoltaics

The high efficiency and low production cost enable the halide perovskite solar cells as a promising technology for the next generation photovoltaics. Nevertheless, the relatively poor stability of the organic-inorganic halide perovskites hinders their commercial applications. In the past few years, two-dimensional (2D) perovskite has emerged as a more stable alternative to the three-dimensional (3D) counterparts and attracted intense research interests. Although many attempts and advances have been made, it is still ambiguous that whether the 2D perovskites could bring closure to the stability issue. To answer this essential question, a systematic study of the nature of 2D halide perovskites is necessary. Here, we focus on the stability investigations of 2D perovskites from different perspectives, especially light, heat, ion migration and strain. Several remaining challenges and opening problems are also discussed. With further material and device engineering, we believe that the 2D perovskites would promote perovskite solar cells to a promising future.     

Theoretical study of p-d hybridization in Co perovskite

The real-space recursion method and unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation have been applied to calculate the density of states of various Co perovskite, CeCoO₃, SrCoO₃ and Sr_1−xCe_xCoO₃. We have studied the magnetically ordered states of these Co perovskites in an enlarged double cell, and find its various magnetic structures due to the occupancy of 3d band and its interaction with neighboring Co ions. In this study, we have studied the p-d hybridization of the three Co perovskites, we find t_2g electrons are localized and the flat e_g band is responsible for the itinerant behavior, and although the rare earth elements itself contribute little to the DOS at the Fermi energy, the DOS at Fermi energy and the magnetic moment changed consequently because of different valence of Co ions in these compounds and p-d hybridization effect is very important.

Optoelectronic and elastic properties of metal halides double perovskites Cs_2InBiX_6(X = F,Cl, Br,I)

Structural geometry, electronic band gaps, density of states, optical and mechanical properties of double perovskite halides Cs_2InBiX_6(X = F, Cl, Br, I) are investigated using the density functional theory. These compounds possess genuine perovskite stoichiometry, evaluated using various geometry-based indices like tolerance factor, octahedral factor, and formation energy. The fundamental electronic band gaps are direct and valued in the range 0.80–2.79 e V. These compounds have narrow band gaps(except Cs_2InBiX_6) due to strong orbital coupling of the cations. The valence band maximum and conduction band minimum are confirmed to be essentially of In 5 s and Bi 6 p characters, respectively. The splitting of Bi 6 p bands due to strong spin-orbit coupling causes reduction in the band gaps. These compounds have large dispersion in their bands and very low carrier effective masses. The substitution of halogen atoms has great influence on the optical properties. The mechanical properties reveal that Cs_2InBiX_6(X = F, Cl, Br, I) satisfy the stability criteria in cubic structures.
