Description

Gravure ink for forming organic photoactive layer, preparation method and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of organic photoelectric devices, in particular to gravure ink for forming an organic photoactive layer, a preparation method and application.
Background
Organic solar cells (Organic solar cells, OSCs) have become a research hotspot in the field of solar cells due to their advantages of light weight, low cost, solution processibility, etc. In the past 20 years, organic solar cells have achieved a great breakthrough in energy conversion efficiency (Power conversion efficiency, PCE) and the efficiency of small area devices has broken through 19% thanks to the development of active layer donor/acceptor materials, interfacial layer materials, device structures and fabrication processes in organic solar cells.
As is well known, most of the reported high efficiency OSCs are prepared using spin-coating methods, and the main advantage of this technique is the suitability for depositing high quality organic films of well-defined thickness of various compositions. However, this approach wastes more than 90% of the solution and generally has limitations on substrate size, which is incompatible with high throughput yields of flat-pressed sheet (S2S) and roll-to-roll (R2R). Thus, commercialization of OSCs requires the use of malleable S2S or R2R fabrication techniques such as doctor blade coating, slot coating, gravure printing, inkjet printing, screen printing, and the like. However, the research of large-area devices has been far lagged, and the main disadvantage of these methods for preparing OSCs in large areas is that it is difficult to control the uniformity, thickness, crystallization and morphology of the organic thin film. Compared with small-area devices, large-area devices have higher requirements on the solubility of active layer materials, the processing mode of the devices and the like, and how to prepare efficient and stable flexible large-area devices remains a challenge. Therefore, the key basic problems in the organic photovoltaic large-area device are studied in depth, the large-area printing preparation method is developed, the method has important significance for promoting the industrial application of the organic solar cell, and the method is a hot spot and a difficult direction of the development of the organic solar cell in the future.
In particular, the existing flexible large-area organic solar cells mostly use coating technology, but solution processing technology such as doctor blade coating, slit coating and the like has limited ink supply, so that large-scale high-flux production of the organic solar cells is blocked, patterning cannot be realized, and the application situation is limited to a certain extent. Gravure printing is taken as a very promising solution method processing technology, has the advantages of patternability, high precision, high-speed printing, high printing endurance, large-scale high-flux (R2R) production and the like, and can meet the actual production requirements of various printed electronic products.
The intaglio printing process consists of three parts, namely: the ink is filled in the net hole by the doctor blade, the excessive ink is scraped off, the ink is transferred from the net hole to the printing stock after the pressure combination, and the ink drops are dried horizontally to form a film. During the ink transfer process, the print quality of the film is mainly determined by three competing relationships, namely the adhesion between the ink and the mesh, the adhesion between the ink and the substrate, and the cohesion of the ink itself (for example, see literature :Nguyen Ho Anh Duc,Lee Changwoo,Shin Kee-Hyun,et al.An Investigation of the Ink-Transfer Mechanism During the Printing Phase of High-Resolution Roll-to-Roll Gravure Printing[J].IEEE Transactions on Components,Packaging and Manufacturing Technology,2015,5(10):1516-1524.).
The strength of the interaction between the ink and the substrate during gravure printing determines its wet adhesion properties, which can be generally improved by treating the substrate, regulating the rheology of the ink. Oxygen plasma treatment of substrates to increase substrate surface energy, improve wettability and adhesion of inks on substrates is mostly used in the prior art (e.g. reference :Thomas Michael,Herrmann Annika,Dohse Antje,et al.Printing ofμm structures with nano inks using a novel combination of high-resolution plasma printing and subsequent rotogravure printing[J].Plasma Processes and Polymers,2019,16(9).). furthermore, the wettability and adhesion properties between inks and substrates can also be adjusted by incorporating surfactants in the printing inks (e.g. reference.) :Voigt Monika M.,Mackenzie Roderick C.I.,King Simon P.,et al.Gravure printing inverted organic solar cells:The influence of ink properties on film quality and device performance[J].Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells,2012,105:77.).
However, when the surfactant used in the prior art is added to the organic photoactive layer ink, the morphology of the film and the photoelectric performance of the film are affected. In addition, surfactants often foam easily in the ink, creating holes in the printed film. Quality problems often occur during large-area batch preparation, and the application of the gravure printing technology in preparing large-area organic photoactive layers is affected.
