Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 109129316, filed on Aug. 27, 2020. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to a perovskite film and a manufacturing method thereof.

BACKGROUND

Because perovskite materials are good photoelectric materials, they are widely used in solar cells. Generally speaking, in the process of forming a perovskite film on a substrate, a perovskite precursor material coated on the substrate is heated to volatilize the solvent in the perovskite precursor material and react the perovskite precursor to form the perovskite film.

However, when the perovskite material is mass-produced in a large area, the use of a heating plate to provide energy from below the substrate causes the issue of uneven heating temperature, thus resulting in poor quality of the perovskite film.

In addition, generally speaking, the perovskite film may have a 2D structure or may have a structure in which a 3D phase structure is mixed with a 2D phase structure (2D/3D), wherein the 2D structure may exhibit the excellent photoelectric properties thereof, and the 2D/3D structure may have characteristics such as high open circuit voltage (Voc), high photoelectric efficiency, and high stability. However, in the prior art, it is generally not easy to form a perovskite film with a single 2D structure due to the time consumption and the control and requirements for the process environment are very strict. Therefore, perovskite films with at least two 2D structures are mostly manufactured and used at present.

SUMMARY

The perovskite film of the disclosure includes the following steps. A perovskite precursor material is coated in a linear direction on a substrate with a temperature between 100° C. and 200° C., wherein a concentration of the perovskite precursor material is between 0.05 M and 1.5 M. The perovskite precursor material is irradiated with an infrared light to cure the perovskite precursor material to form a thin film including a compound represented by formula (1). The perovskite film has a single 2D phase structure or has a structure in which a 3D phase structure is mixed with a single 2D phase structure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DISCLOSED EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, when a numerical range is provided, every numerical value between the upper limit and the lower limit of the range and the upper limit and the lower limit are all included in the scope of the disclosure.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a forming method of a perovskite layer shown according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, in step 100, a substrate is preheated to a temperature range, and the temperature of the substrate is maintained within the temperature range. In the present embodiment, the substrate is heated to a temperature range between 100° C. and 200° C. For example, the substrate may be heated to 100° C., 110° C., 120° C., 130° C., 140° C., 150° C., 160° C., 170° C., 180° C., 190° C., or 200° C. The temperature range may allow the solvent in the perovskite precursor material to volatilize to generate crystal nuclei, and cause the perovskite precursor to react to gradually grow a dense perovskite thin film. In addition, in the present embodiment, the method of preheating the substrate is, for example, placing the substrate in an environment within the temperature range, or placing the substrate on a heating plate and performing heating to the temperature range.

In step 102, the perovskite precursor material is coated in a linear direction on a substrate having the temperature range (between 100° C. and 200° C.), and the substrate is maintained under the temperature range. In the present embodiment, the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is between 0.05 M and 1.5 M, wherein the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is defined by the concentration of M¹X₂ and/or RNH₃X. The definitions of R, M¹, and X are as follows. For example, the concentration of the perovskite precursor material may be 0.05 M, 0.1 M, 0.15 M, 0.2 M, 0.25 M, 0.3 M, 0.4 M, 0.5 M, 0.6 M, 0.7 M, 0.8 M, 0.9 M, 1 M, 1.05 M, 1.1 M, 1.2 M, 1.3 M, 1.4 M, or 1.5 M. In the present embodiment, the method of coating the perovskite precursor material in a linear direction is, for example, slit coating, blade coating, air knife coating, or inkjet coating instead of the commonly used spin-coating method (not coating along a single direction), and the object is to make the perovskite precursor material uniformly distributed on the substrate to facilitate the growth of the perovskite layer. In an embodiment, via the blade coating method, the surface of the perovskite film is smoother, and the thickness of the perovskite film may be better controlled by adjusting the blade gap. In addition, the blade coating method has the advantages of simple manufacture and low equipment cost.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the perovskite precursor material is soluble in organic solvents to facilitate uniform coating on the substrate. The organic solvent may be γ-butyrolactone (GBL), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), dimethylformamide (DMF), or a mixture thereof. In an embodiment, the organic solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide and dimethyl formamide.

It should be mentioned that, because the spin coating method uses an anti-solvent to remove the solvent, the use rate of the coating solution is too low (about 2%), and the thickness of the resulting film is at least about 400 nm. Therefore, the film may not be used as a material of the active layer of a light-emitting diode (LED), and the spin coating method that is not applied in a linear direction is not suitable for the disclosure.

In step 103, the perovskite precursor material is irradiated with infrared light to cure the perovskite precursor material to form a perovskite film. In the present embodiment, when the perovskite precursor material is coated on the substrate, the perovskite precursor material is simultaneously irradiated with infrared light. In the present embodiment, infrared light is irradiated from above the perovskite precursor material, so that both the top surface and the bottom surface of the perovskite precursor material may be heated to facilitate the rapid growth of crystal nuclei. In detail, since the perovskite precursor material is properly heated by the substrate heating and infrared light irradiation at the same time, the solvent in the perovskite precursor material may be quickly volatilized to produce crystal nuclei, and the perovskite precursor may be reacted to be gradually cured and to grow a dense perovskite thin film. Moreover, the perovskite film has a single 2D phase structure or a structure in which a 3D phase structure is mixed with a single 2D phase structure. In addition, the perovskite film includes a compound represented by formula (1),

(RNH₃)₂MA_(n−1)M¹_nX_(3n+1)  formula (1),

wherein each R is independently H, a C₁ to C₂₀ alkyl group, a C₁ to C₂₀ cycloalkyl group, a C₁ to C₂₀ carboxyl group, or a C₁ to C₂₀ aralkyl group; MA is methylamine; M¹ is Ca, Sr, Cd, Cu, Ni, Mn, Fe, Co, Pd, Ge, Sn, Pb, Yb, Eu, or a combination thereof; X is Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof; n is an integer of 1 to 50. For example, n may be 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, or 45. That is, in the present embodiment, the perovskite film at least includes 2D halide perovskite.

In the present embodiment, for example, infrared light with a wavelength between 700 nm and 1400 nm is used for irradiation. In the present embodiment, after the coating of the perovskite precursor material is completed, the infrared light irradiation may continue for a period of time. For example, the time of infrared light irradiation is, for example, between 5 seconds and 120 seconds. For example, the time of the infrared light irradiation may be 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, 25 seconds, 30 seconds, 35 seconds, 40 seconds, 45 seconds, 50 seconds, 60 seconds, 70 seconds, 80 seconds, 90 seconds, 100 seconds, 110 seconds, or 120 seconds. At this time, the substrate is still maintained at the temperature range. That is to say, in the present embodiment, when the substrate is maintained at the temperature range, the perovskite precursor material may be coated and infrared light irradiation may be performed simultaneously, and after the perovskite precursor material is coated, heating may still be performed simultaneously from above and below the perovskite precursor material. After the infrared light irradiation is finished, an annealing treatment may be further performed to form a perovskite film with better quality. In the present embodiment, the temperature of the annealing treatment is, for example, between 80° C. and 130° C., and the time thereof is, for example, between 30 minutes and 150 minutes. For example, the temperature of the annealing treatment may be 80° C., 90° C., 100° C., 110° C., 120° C., or 130° C., and the time thereof may be 30 minutes, 40 minutes, 50 minutes, 60 minutes, 70 minutes, 80 minutes, 90 minutes, 100 minutes, 110 minutes, 120 minutes, 130 minutes, 140 minutes, or 150 minutes. In another embodiment of the disclosure, the temperature of the annealing treatment is, for example, between 80° C. and 110° C., and the time thereof is, for example, between 50 minutes and 100 minutes.

In the present embodiment, the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is adjusted, and a perovskite film with a single 2D phase structure or a perovskite film with a structure in which a 3D phase structure is mixed with a single 2D phase structure may be formed. Further description is provided below.

When the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is between 0.05 M and 0.6 M, the perovskite film formed by the above steps has a single 2D phase structure. That is, the perovskite film has a 2D phase structure having characteristics such as emitting high-purity light and low cost, and is suitable as a material for the active layer of a light-emitting diode (LED). For example, when the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is between 0.2 M and 0.6 M, infrared light is irradiated for a time between 5 seconds and 20 seconds in step 103, and the perovskite film may be used as the active layer material of a red light diode. In addition, when the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is less than 0.2 M, infrared light is irradiated for a time between 60 seconds and 120 seconds in step 103, and the perovskite film may be used as the active layer material of a green light diode.

The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum identification of the perovskite film formed by the perovskite precursor material with a concentration less than or equal to 0.6 M shows that:

• • (1) When the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is between 0.2 M and 0.6 M, the photoluminescence spectrum of the perovskite film has a peak in the wavelength range of 700 nm to 800 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) thereof is between 30 nm and 65 nm. In other words, when the perovskite film is used as the active layer material of the light-emitting diode, the light-emitting diode may emit high-purity red light.
  • (2) When the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is less than 0.2 M, the photoluminescence spectrum of the perovskite film has a peak in the wavelength range of 550 nm to 650 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) thereof is between 20 nm and 40 nm. In other words, when the perovskite film is used as the active layer material of the light-emitting diode, the light-emitting diode may emit high-purity green light.

In addition, when the concentration of the perovskite precursor material is greater than 0.6 M and not more than 1.5 M, infrared light is irradiated for a time between 5 seconds and 40 seconds in step 103 to form a perovskite film with a 3D phase and a single 2D phase structure. That is, the perovskite film has a mixed structure of a 3D phase and one kind of 2D phase and has characteristics such as high open circuit voltage, high photoelectric conversion efficiency, and high stability, and is suitable as a material of the active layer of a solar cell.

Based on the above, an embodiment of the disclosure provides a perovskite film with a single 2D phase structure, and the perovskite film includes a compound represented by formula (1),

(RNH₃)₂MA_(n−1)M¹_nX_(3n+1)  formula (1)

wherein each R is independently H, a C₁ to C₂₀ alkyl group, a C₁ to C₂₀ cycloalkyl group, a C₁ to C₂₀ carboxyl group, or a C₁ to C₂₀ aralkyl group; MA is methylamine; M¹ is Ca, Sr, Cd, Cu, Ni, Mn, Fe, Co, Pd, Ge, Sn, Pb, Yb, Eu, or a combination thereof; X is Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof; n is an integer of 1 to 50.

In addition, for the perovskite film of an embodiment of the disclosure, in the photoluminescence spectrum, a peak appears in the wavelength range of 550 nm to 650 nm, and the FWHM thereof is between 20 nm and 40 nm, or a peak appears in the wavelength range of 700 nm to 800 nm, and the FWHM thereof is between 30 nm and 65 nm. In an embodiment, the thickness of the perovskite film is between 5 nm and 4 μm.

Hereinafter, the perovskite film and the manufacturing method thereof of the disclosure are described with experimental examples and comparative examples.

Experimental Example 1

Preparation of Perovskite Precursor Material

0.1 M PEAI (phenethylammonium iodide) was dissolved in a mixed solvent with a ratio of DMF and DMSO of 100:7. Then, 0.05 M MAI (methylammonium iodide) and 0.1 M PbI₂ were added, stirred, and heated at 70° C. until completely dissolved. Next, the solution was filtered with a syringe filter with an aperture size of 0.45 μm. Then, the perovskite precursor material was configured to a concentration of 0.1 M (defined by the concentrations of PbI₂ and PEAI).

In addition, irradiation was simultaneously performed with infrared light with a wavelength between 700 nm and 1400 nm. The distance from the infrared light source to the substrate was about 10 cm. After the coating was completed, the infrared light continued to be irradiated for 60 seconds or 120 seconds and then removed. Then, the perovskite film was moved onto a 100° C. heating plate for annealing for 1 hour to form a perovskite film.
