  • Publication number: 20240124438
    Abstract: Provided are a phenanthroline-based compound, a method of preparing the same, and a perovskite solar cell including the same. The phenanthroline-based compound may be formed as a uniform layer even by a solution process due to its low average surface roughness (root mean square, RMS) and excellent processability. When a layer having the phenanthroline-based compound is provided as a polymer functional layer of the perovskite solar cell, the ionic defects on the surface between the perovskite and a metal oxide, may be passivated and charge transfer may be facilitated so that the energy efficiency and photostability of the solar cell are improved.

  • Patent number: 11839154
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel compound for improving the photostability of an optoelectronic device, and more particularly, to a novel phenanthroline-based compound, a preparation method thereof, and an optoelectronic device including the same as a passivation layer. According to the present invention, the novel phenanthroline-based compound of Formula 1 is a novel compound in which an amine group side chain is introduced into the parent nucleus of phenanthroline, and is capable of being used in a solution process due to excellent solubility in a polar solvent, and simple introduction on an n-type semiconductor organic layer (e.g., an organic photoactive layer or an electron transport layer) as a passivation layer may bring about not only an increase in stability, but also an additional increase in efficiency such as an increase in open-circuit voltage or photocurrent.

  • Publication number: 20150072465
    Abstract: Provided are an organic-inorganic hybrid junction device in which organic and inorganic materials are connected by junction, and a depletion layer is formed at a junction interface, and an organic photovoltaic cell using the same. A basic metal oxide solution is applied to a top surface of a P-doped organic layer. The basic metal oxide solution has N-type characteristics. An oxidation-reduction reaction occurs in response to the application of the basic metal oxide solution at a junction interface of the organic layer, and the metal oxide layer is simultaneously gelated. A free charge is removed from a surface region of the P-doped organic layer by the oxidation-reduction reaction at the interface, which is converted into a depletion region. According to the introduction of the depletion region, P-N junction occurs, and thus the device has a diode characteristic in an electrical aspect. Also, an organic photovoltaic cell including the organic layer, the depletion layer and the metal oxide layer is fabricated.
