Here we describe an improved version of radio frequency photoconductive decay (RFPCD) operating in the ultra-high frequency (UHF) region.

The UHF region is an ideal compromise for volume penetration and lifetime resolution with system response of 10 ns or less.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115346785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we identify critical growth steps to eliminate each of these problems and present an optimum molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth procedure which yields APD-free, near-dislocation-free GaAs/Ge with greatly suppressed interdiffusion in both the GaAs overlayer and Ge substrate. For solid source MBE, elimination of APDs requires a double-stepped, clean Ge surface and a prelayer consisting of a complete monolayer of either As or Ga. Correct conditions can be observed and maintained by real-time in-situ monitoring to ensure reproducibility. Initiating growth at low temperature with migration enhanced epitaxy virtually eliminates Ge diffusion into GaAs and Ga diffusion into Ge, while As diffusion into Ge is substantially suppressed.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115485035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Investigation of carrier lifetime instabilities in Cz-grown silicon cz生长硅中载流子寿命不稳定性的研究

The upper state is obtained by means of low-temperature annealing, while illumination degrades the lifetime towards the value of the lower state. In order to improve the understanding of this phenomenon, we performed comprehensive carrier lifetime measurements on solar- and electronic-grade boron, gallium, and phosphorus doped Cz wafers obtained from different manufacturers. Based on the experimental results, a new model is introduced which attributes the disappointingly low stable lifetimes of illuminated boron-doped Cz silicon with resistivity around 1 /spl Omega/cm to boron-oxygen pairs. From this model, simple recipes are derived which might lead to an improvement of the efficiency of commercial Cz silicon solar cells.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114905289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of mc-Si solar cells that have been made by this new technology is comparable to that of conventionally processed cells. Thin-film solar cells have been prepared by applying zone melting recrystallisation of CVD-grown, highly doped p/sup +/-Si layers, that were used as seeding layers for the growth of the active Si-layers. Graphite with two kinds of encapsulation have been used as a foreign substrate for the silicon deposition: (a) covered with conducting SiC, the graphite acts as base contact of the cells; and (b) graphite encapsulated with insulating SiC- and SiO/sub 2//SiN/SiO/sub 2/-layers (ONO) leads to solar cells on insulating foreign substrates, with front side base contact. The graphite/SiC/Si layer system was developed by ASE; ONO deposition and recrystallisation were realised at Fraunhofer ISE.

CdS was used to prevent the evaporation of CdS from the films. After 5 min annealing, the grain size increased from 10 nm to 100 nm and the surface morphology was very smooth and densely packed. The optical transmittance was greatly improved near E/sub g/, compared to that of CdS films annealed at 400/spl deg/C for 30 min in H/sub 2/. The efficiency of the CdTe solar cell was improved by fabricating with the CdS layer annealed in a (CdCl/sub 2/+CdS) atmosphere. The increase of the efficiency was mainly due to the increase of fill factor, which might be due to the decrease of defects at CdTe bulk and the CdS/CdTe interface.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"254 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120881853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This surface texture has a cone shape, and aspect ratio and size of which can be easily controlled. We have optimized surface shape and emitter sheet resistance. The optimum emitter sheet resistance for RIE textured cell is higher than that for the usual cell. The high aspect ratio of the cone shape makes surface reflectance low, but the cell efficiency is not so good. There is an optimum aspect ratio because the emitter of cell with high aspect ratio surface has large saturation current and cell performance is decreased with aspect ratio. We have fabricated over 17% efficient large area (225 cm/sup 2/) mc-Si solar cell using this surface texturing technique and passivation schemes which is based on the silicon nitride film deposited by the plasma CVD method and hydrogen annealing at a high temperature.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"2675 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127278632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An experimental investigation of several types of multiinterface Si structures obtained, for example, by impurity implantation and adequate thermal treatment has been carried out. The most characteristic feature of the devices investigated concerns a buried amorphized substructure which is delimited at its front and back edges by a-Si/c-Si heterointerfaces. Electron microscope and X-ray studies show that these two phases are separated by a very sharp interface and a very thin c-Si transition zone with new crystalline properties. In this way, active substructures and active interfaces can be well-controlled by bandgap, defect and stress engineering. The results obtained indicate one of the possible ways towards the practical realization of improvements postulated by theory and simulations.","PeriodicalId":251166,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Sixth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1997","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127495181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
