Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tin halide perovskite solar cells are attracting attention as environmentally-friendly solution-processed solar cells. However, the shallow conduction band energy level of tin perovskite results in a large energy gap with the LUMO level of fullerene C60, a commonly used electron transport material, resulting in a low open-circuit voltage. In this study, as electron transport materials with shallow LUMO levels that match the shallow conduction band level of tin perovskites, (1) open-cage fullerene derivatives and (2) phenylene-bridged bispyridinofullerene derivatives were developed. The tin perovskite solar cells using these materials as electron transport materials exhibited open-circuit voltages of up to 0.86 V and photoelectric conversion efficiencies of 12.3%.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
浅めのLUMO準位をもつフラーレン誘導体としては、インデン-C60二付加体(ICBA)が一般的に用いられている。しかし、二付加体は合成においてさまざまな異性体が生じ、それらを分離するのが困難であるという課題があった。本研究で開発した開口フラーレン誘導体およびビスピリジノフラーレン誘導体は、多くの異性体を生じることなく簡便に大スケールで合成可能であるという特徴をもつ。スズペロブスカイト太陽電池の実用化にもつながる成果である。
