Embodiment 1

[0043] Example 1: Preparation of ZnO nanorod arrays.

[0044] (1-1) Preparation of ZnO dense film:

[0045] First, etch the ITO on the ITO conductive glass (ITO thickness is 100-120nm, ≤15Ω / □) with concentrated hydrochloric acid and Zn powder to 12×3mm 2 Thin strips; ultrasonically cleaned with acetone, isopropanol, and ultrapure water, and dried with dry nitrogen before use.

[0046] 0.16 g of zinc acetate [Zn(CH 3 COO) 2 2H 2 O] was dissolved in 1 g of water, and after complete dissolution, 4 ml of absolute ethanol was added, and then 100 μl of glacial acetic acid was added dropwise; the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours to obtain a colorless, clear and transparent solution. The above solution was spin-coated on ITO glass (2000 rpm, 60 seconds), repeated four times to obtain a uniform film, and then calcined in a muffle furnace at 350° C. for 20 minutes to obtain a dense ZnO film.

Abstract

The invention discloses an organic / inorganic hybridization solar cell and a production method thereof, wherein a zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorod array ZnO-sodium (Na) which is vertically grown on an indium tin oxide (ITO) lining base is utilized as a template, a nanorod array ZnO-natural rubber (NR)-quantum dot (QD)-NA which takes a ZnO nanorod as a core and a polycrystal film which consists of ZnO quantum dots as an inorganic finishing shell layer is prepared, an organic matter N719 is utilized to modify the ZnO-NR-QD-NA, so a homogeneous core-shell structure nanorod array ZnO-NR-QD-N719-NA which is modified by the N719 is obtained, a polymer and the ZnO-NR-QD-N719-NA are compounded to produce a finished product, the open-circuit voltage of the cell reaches 0.62V, the short-circuit current of the cell is 3.79mA / cm<2>, and the conversion efficiency of the cell reaches 0.84%. Compared with a phenylacetylene (MEH-PPV) / ZnO-NA cell, the open-circuit voltage of the cell is improved by 88%, the short-circuit current is increased by 192%, and the conversion efficiency is improved by 425%.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the fields of nanomaterials and energy, and specifically relates to an organic / inorganic hybrid solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique: [0002] The polymer solar cell composed of organic conjugated polymer as electron donor (D) and inorganic nanocrystal as electron acceptor (A) is a new type of organic / inorganic hybrid solar cell. Due to its advantages of both polymers (light weight, good flexibility, easy large-area and low-cost film formation, etc.) An important research object in valence solar cells. The research results show that high-performance battery devices need to meet the following conditions: large-area D / A interface for separating excitons, continuous charge transport channels, and stable battery material condensed matter structure. Usually, inorganic semiconductor nanoparticles are mixed with organic polymers in an organic solvent to achieve simple blending, and then these simple ble...
