Thin-film amorphous silicon germanium solar cells with p- and n-type hydrogenated silicon oxide layers
Mixed-phase hydrogenated silicon oxide (SiOx:H) is applied to thin-film hydrogenated amorphous silicon germanium (a-SiGe:H) solar cells serving as both p-doped and n-doped layers. The bandgap of p-SiOx:H is adjusted to achieve a highly-transparent window layer while also providing a strong electric field. Bandgap grading of n-SiOx:H is designed to obtain a smooth transition of the energy band e...
متن کاملProperties of Zinc Oxide Nanowires on Zinc Oxide Thin Film Coated Amorphous Glass Substrates
Nowadays, fabrication of electronic devices using nanostructured materials has been important since it does provide a way of improving devices efficiency. Nanostructured materials have been known to have high surface area per volume and also exhibit unique properties such as visible light transparency and quantum confinement effect. Such characteristics produce excellent reaction area in the de...
متن کاملFabrication of Thin-Film LAPS with Amorphous Silicon
To improve the spatial resolution of the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS), it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the semiconductor layer, which, however, causes a problem of the mechanical strength of the sensor plate. In this study, a thin-film LAPS was fabricated with amorphous silicon (a-Si) deposited on a transparent glass substrate. The current-voltage characteristics an...
متن کاملChemical Etching of Zinc Oxide for Thin-Film Silicon Solar Cells
Chemical etching is widely applied to texture the surface of sputter-deposited zinc oxide for light scattering in thin-film silicon solar cells. Based on experimental findings from the literature and our own results we propose a model that explains the etching behavior of ZnO depending on the structural material properties and etching agent. All grain boundaries are prone to be etched to a cert...
متن کاملAtomic layer deposited zinc tin oxide channel for amorphous oxide thin film transistors
Bottom-gate thin film transistors with amorphous zinc tin oxide channels were grown by atomic layer deposition. The films maintained their amorphous character up to temperatures over 500 C. The highest field effect mobility was 13 cm/V s with on-to-off ratios of drain current 10–10. The lowest subthreshold swing of 0.27 V/decade was observed with thermal oxide as a gate insulator. The channel l...
