中文摘要

近年来,黄锡矿太阳能电池作为与硅太阳能电池构成叠层结构的顶部子电池,展现出广阔的应用前景。然而,在透明基底上制备高质量黄锡矿吸收层仍是一个重大挑战。本研究采用银(Ag)合金化与钠(Na)掺杂相结合的方法,以溶胶-凝胶法制备在FTO(氟掺杂氧化锡)背电极上的铜锌锡硫(CZTS)吸收层,从而改善其材料性能。X射线衍射结果表明,引入银后,黄锡矿材料的结晶性及相组成得到显著提升。此外,拉曼光谱分析显示,银掺入后黄锡矿材料的晶格结构更加有序,Cu/Zn无序程度以及CuZn缺陷密度显著降低。光学分析表明,由于银原子的存在,黄锡矿光学带隙从1.53 eV略微增加至1.57 eV。本研究采用有限差分时域(FDTD)光学模拟方法,结合实际光学参数,计算了光在FTO/CZTS/CdS/ZnO/ITO太阳能结构中的透射情况。随后,利用Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator(SCAPS-1D)进行电学模拟,评估了在上述计算透射光谱照射下,一个性能优良的c-Si底部子电池(具有先进效率水平)的工作性能。模拟结果显示,该叠层器件的转换效率达到14.5%,但由于整体透光率较低,该效率仍低于标准AM1.5条件下单结晶体硅(c-Si)太阳能电池的效率。在此叠层结构中,c-Si底部电池仅贡献了6%的效率,同时黄锡矿顶部子电池的电学性能也较低,效率仅为7.8%。这些结果表明,在透明背电极上引入银是一种有效改善黄锡矿材料性能的有前景策略。然而,为进一步释放黄锡矿材料在叠层太阳能电池应用中的潜力,仍需在光学性能方面进行更深入的优化。

English Abstract

Abstract In recent years, kesterite solar cells have emerged as a promising candidate for integration as top subcells in tandem structures with silicon solar cells. Nevertheless, the production of high-quality kesterite absorbers on transparent substrates has remained a significant challenge. In this study, the combination of silver (Ag) alloying and sodium (Na) doping was employed to enhance the properties of copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) absorbers developed on FTO (fluorine-doped tin oxide) back electrodes using the sol–gel method. X-ray diffraction demonstrated a notable enhancement in the crystallinity and phase composition of the kesterite materials with the introduction of silver. Furthermore, Raman spectroscopy indicated a more organized matrix with a considerable reduction in Cu/Zn disorder and CuZn defect density in the kesterite materials following the incorporation of silver. Optical analysis exhibited a slight increase in the kesterite optical bandgap from 1.53 to 1.57 eV due to the presence of silver atoms. A finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) optical simulation was conducted using realistic optical inputs to calculate the transmitted light from the FTO/CZTS/CdS/ZnO/ITO solar structure. Subsequently, the performance of a well-established c-Si bottom subcell (with state-of-the-art efficiency) under calculated transmission was evaluated using the Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator (SCAPS-1D) for electrical simulation. The simulated tandem device achieved an efficiency of 14.5 %, which is lower than that of a crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell under AM1.5 due to lower transmittance. This resulted in only 6 % efficiency from c-Si in the tandem configuration, in addition to the lower electrical performance of the kesterite top subcell with only 7.8 % efficiency. These findings suggest that incorporating silver represents a promising approach to enhancing the properties of kesterite materials on transparent back electrodes. However, further optical improvements are necessary to fully realize the potential of kesterite materials for tandem applications.
