Perovskite-loaded plasmonic gold nanorod composites enhanced solar cell performance
Tóm tắt
As a renewable green energy, solar cells can cope with environmental pollution and the shortage of fossil energy, so they are widely concerned by the scientific community. However, although the perovskite layer has excellent light absorption capacity, its thickness is limited in terms of the morphology and carrier migration. The use of surface plasmon resonance to enhance the performance of solar devices is one of the most promising concepts at present. In this paper, gold nanorods (AuNR) water solution was introduced into perovskite active layer to formed composites and the perovskite solar cells were prepared by one-step spin coating. The results showed that compared with the control group, the maximum short-circuit current density (Jsc) increased from 21.03 mA/cm2 of the control group to 21.6 mA/cm2 with 2vol% AuNR solution, the filling factor (FF) increased from 78.65 to 82%, and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) increased from 18.02 to 19.46%. Plasmon resonance effect enhances light-harvesting ability of perovskite layers. It promotes the separation of excitons, resulting in the formation of more carriers, the inhibition of carrier recombination, and the improvement of quantum efficiency (EQE) and filling factor (FF). Meanwhile, the presence of appropriate moisture promotes the crystallization of the film, enhances the quality of perovskite films and inhibits the carrier recombination.
