Surface recombination at the Si/SiO/sub 2/ overgrowth interface Si/SiO/sub /过生长界面处的表面复合

These are minority carrier diffusion lengths exceeding the active layer thickness, enhanced absorption from light trapping, and passivation of all surfaces bounding the active region. A thin silicon solar cell will in general be supported by a foreign substrate. This approach will produce a buried interface which will not allow for characterization of surface recombination by short wavelength spectral response. New methods must be developed to measure and control surface recombination at a buried interface. A gated diode device structure is proposed for this purpose. The gate will be formed at the buried interface. Varying the gate bias is expected to control carrier populations due to field effect, and hence the recombination rate at the back surface. In this work, a thin layer of single crystal silicon is formed on the gate structure by epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) using liquid phase epitaxy. The dielectric insulator is currently thermally grown SiO/sub 2/. This device structure could enable control of buried surface recombination for a wide variety of substrate materials.","PeriodicalId":410394,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Fifth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1996","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124062405","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}

Time progressive selenizations were carried out in a tubular laminar flow reactor in a dilute H/sub 2/Se atmosphere at 250, 325 and 400/spl deg/C. The reacted films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The chemical species present in the reacted films were identified and a reaction network for film formation is proposed. The data from time progressive selenizations were analyzed to obtain species concentration profiles. Rate expressions were postulated and a mathematical model for the selenization was developed. The behavior of the model is compared with the experimentally determined species concentrations to obtain specific reaction rate constants at each temperature and the activation energies. This information is needed for the design and process control of commercial scale selenization reactors.","PeriodicalId":410394,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the Twenty Fifth IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference - 1996","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126245662","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}
