  • Patent number: 12119138
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a transparent electrode with a low surface roughness, in particular a method for preparing a large-area, low-cost and patterned transparent electrode using the screen-printing technology, which focuses on solving the problem of a high roughness of a screen-printed pattern. First, a substrate is coated with a layer of a smooth conductive material, then screen printing is performed to obtain a conductive pattern, and finally, a layer of a surfactant-modified composite conductive material is applied and film transfer printing is performed to obtain a transparent electrode with a low surface roughness. The transparent electrode prepared by the method retains a smooth surface of the original substrate after peeling, which has a remarkably low surface roughness and a significantly increased success rate of film transfer printing, and can be directly applied to various photoelectric devices, such as solar batteries, LEDs, flat panel displays and electronic sensors.

  • Patent number: 11600788
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a ternary polymer solar cell. A photoactive layer of the ternary polymer solar cell includes two non-fullerene electron acceptors with large planarity. The weight percentage composition of the photoactive layer in the ternary polymer solar cell is: 41.6-50% of polymer electron donor, 0-50% of polymer electron acceptor, and 0-50% of non-fullerene perylene diimide (PDI) electron acceptor. The non-fullerene PDI electron acceptor is added into the photoactive layer to broaden the spectral absorption of the photoactive layer, improve the phase separation of the photoactive layer and inhibit the recombination of bimolecular charges, resulting in more efficient generation and transport of charges, thereby increasing a short-circuit current density of the ternary polymer solar cell device, and finally improving the power conversion efficiency of the ternary polymer solar cell device. Moreover, a new direction is provided for the selection of the all-polymer non-fullerene acceptor.
