Background technology
Along with developing rapidly of modern economy, people constantly enlarge the demand of the energy.Conventional energy resources such as present widely used traditional energy coal, oil and natural gas will face the situation of critical shortage because it is non-renewable.In addition, these energy in use cause very big pollution to environment easily.And characteristics such as solar power generation is renewable owing to having, cleanliness without any pollution might become the following topmost energy.In recent years, with CuInSe
2, Cu (In, Ga) Se
2Deng chalcogen compound is the representative thin-film solar cells because have the conversion ratio height, consumptive material is few, substrate is cheap, be convenient to characteristics such as large-scale production, be subjected to people's generally attention and obtain developing rapidly.
The preparation method of used for solar batteries optoelectronic film has a lot, as vacuum vapour deposition or sputtering method, molecular beam epitaxy and sheath gas-phase reaction method etc.These methods need environment dustless, vacuum usually, and will produce in hypertoxic sulphur or hydrogen sulfide atmosphere.And continuous ion adsorbing method (SILAR) preparation sulfide solar energy photoelectric thin-film has characteristics such as cost is low, pollution-free, preparation technology is simple, and technical merit advanced person is expected to realize cheap large-scale production.Adopting copper sulphate and thiocarbamide as " material physical chemistry " (Materials Chemistry and Physicis) report in one piece of article " continuous ion adsorbing method growth CuS film " [Growth of copper sulphide thin films by successive ionic layer adsorption andreaction (SILAR) method] in January, 2000 is raw material, at the sheet glass that is of a size of 26mm * 76mm * 1mm after the cleaning be of a size of on the monocrystalline silicon piece of 20mm * 20mm * 0.5mm and be equipped with the CuS optoelectronic film with the SILAR legal system. the cation precursor solution is the copper-bath of 0.1M, and the adding excessive ammonia is adjusted to pH value 10; The anion precursor solution is the thiourea solution (PH=6) of 0.1M.The solution for preparing is joined respectively in the beaker of 50mL, and the deionized water of preparation capacity is used for cleaning.Reaction is at room temperature carried out: the first step was immersed in backing material in the copper-bath of 0.1M 20 seconds, and at this moment bivalent cupric ion is adsorbed onto substrate surface, cleans 30 seconds to remove unnecessary ion with redistilled water then; Second step was immersed in backing material in the 0.1M thiourea solution about 20 seconds S
2-Ion is adsorbed also and the Cu of substrate surface
2+Reacting generates CuxS, still cleans with redistilled water then and removes unnecessary responseless ion in 30 seconds.Repeat 25 multi-component sulfur semiconductive thin films of this technological process, can make the CuxS film of about 4000 of thickness.
The problem that exists in the multi-component sulfur photoelectric films preparation at present is: (1) preparation multi-component sulfur film than maturation method as evaporation or sputtering method etc., need under vacuum, react, not only equipment manufacturing cost costliness, easy pollution, large-area preparation difficulty also can cause a large amount of wastage of material and be difficult to and reclaim.(2) continuous ionic absorption is adopted the ion presoma that separates with reaction method (SILAR), by heterogeneous growth mechanism film formation at low temp, is applicable to multiple substrate, and equipment is simple, and is pollution-free, and reactant liquor also can fully be recycled.But its research only is confined to binary compounds such as CdS, PbS, ZnS abroad, does not see the report that has the SILAR legal system to be equipped with multi-component sulfur photoelectric films such as ternary, quaternary.
