摘　　要：胶体量子点(CQD)具有优异的红外光吸收能力和光谱可调特性,是用于制备高效太阳能电池最有前途的红外光电材料之一。然而,以醋酸铵(AA)为添加剂的液相配体交换会导致CQD固体中产生宽带隙PbI_(2)基质,其将作为电荷传输势垒,在很大程度上影响了CQD太阳能电池(CQDSC)中载流子的提取,从而影响了光伏性能。本文报道利用二甲基碘化铵(DMAI)调节CQD配体交换过程,使载流子在CQD固体中的传输势垒大幅降低。通过对CQD固体进行全面的表征和理论计算,充分揭示了DMAI和CQD之间的相互作用。结果表明,通过DMAI调节CQD配体交换过程,使CQD固体均匀堆积,提高了载流子输运性能,并且陷阱辅助复合受到显著抑制。因此,CQDSC器件中的载流子提取得到了大幅提高,能量转换效率(PCE)比用AA制备的CQDSC器件提高了17.8%。此工作为调控CQD表面化学特性提供了新的研究思路,并为降低CQD固体中载流子输运的势垒提供了可行的方法。Colloidal quantum dots(CQDs) are extremely promising infrared optoelectronic materials for efficient solar cells owing to their strong infrared absorption with tunable spectra. However, the liquid-state ligand exchange of CQDs using ammonium acetate(AA) as an additive generally resulted in intensive charge-transport barriers within the CQD solids. This is induced by the highbandgap PbI_(2)matrix, which considerably affects the charge-carrier extraction of CQD solar cells(CQDSCs), and thus their photovoltaic performance. Herein, dimethylammonium iodide(DMAI) was used as an additive instead for the liquidstate ligand exchange, substantially eliminating the PbI_(2)matrix capping the CQDs and simultaneously restraining CQD fusion during the ligand exchange, thereby reducing the barriers for the charge-carrier transport within the CQD solids. Extensive experimental studies and theoretical calculations were performed to link the surface chemistry of the CQDs with the charge-carrier dynamics within the CQD solids and full solar cell devices. The theoretical calculation results reveal that DMAI which possess small dissociation energy could finely regulate the ligand exchange of CQDs, resulting in the suppressed energetic disorder and diminished charge-transport barriers in the CQD solids compared to those of the CQD solids prepared using AA. The DMAI-treated quantum dots were characterized and analyzed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and 2D grazing-incidence wide-and small-angle X-ray scattering spectrometry. The results show PbI_(2)-related Bragg peaks in the AA-treated CQD solid films, indicating a thick layer of PbI_(2)crystal matrix being formed in the CQD solids, whereas there was no obvious PbI_(2)signal observed in DMAI-treated CQD solids. These results also demonstrate that DMAI provides additional I-, improving the surface passivation of the CQDs and reducing trap-assisted recombination. For the infrared photovoltaic applications, the CQDSC devices were fabricated, which sh
