ロンドン大学ユニバーシティ・カレッジ(UCL)の研究チームは、屋内光で高効率に発電できる新型ペロブスカイト太陽電池を開発した。対象はリモコンやセンサーなどの小型機器で、バッテリー不要化が期待される。従来は結晶欠陥が性能を妨げていたが、ルビジウム塩化物と有機アンモニウム塩を組み合わせて結晶成長を均質化し、欠陥を抑制。さらにイオン分離を防ぎ安定性を高めた。その結果、1000ルクスの室内光で37.6%という世界最高水準の効率を達成し、市販品の約6倍に相当。長期試験でも性能を92%維持し、従来に比べ大幅な耐久性向上を確認した。耐用期間は5年以上に延びる可能性がある。研究成果は『Advanced Functional Materials』に掲載され、産業化に向けた議論も進行中である。

Abstract

Despite well-matching indoor illumination spectra, the performance of wide bandgap perovskite solar cells (WB-PSCs) for indoor photovoltaics (i-PV) is hindered by photo-induced halide phase segregation and trap-assisted non-radiative recombination. Herein, a Triple Passivation Treatment (TPT) reassembly strategy is presented to simultaneously suppress bulk and surface defects. TPT induces a transition in perovskite surface energetics from n-type to p-type and remarkably increases the photoluminescence quantum yield from 0.5 to 2.1%, creating a more favorable band alignment for hole extraction whilst substantially reducing halide phase segregation. As a result, 1.75 eV WB-PSCs achieve an indoor Power Conversion Efficiency (iPCE) of 37.6% under 1000 lux illumination. Under standard sunlight conditions, the devices reach a Power Conversion Efficiency (PCE) of 20.1% and a fill factor of 78.5%, among the best performance parameters for this bandgap. Importantly, the passivated devices exhibit excellent shelf stability, retaining 92% of their initial performance after 3200 h. Under ambient air conditions at 55 °C, the unencapsulated devices maintained 76% of their initial PCE after 300 h continuous light soaking. The findings represent a significant breakthrough in the development of stable WB-PSCs for i-PV applications, with minimized nonradiative losses and enhanced performance.
