Magnesium Fluoride Electron-Selective Contacts for Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells.
In this study, we present a novel application of thin magnesium fluoride films to form electron-selective contacts to n-type crystalline silicon (c-Si). This allows the demonstration of a 20.1%-efficient c-Si solar cell. The electron-selective contact is composed of deposited layers of amorphous silicon (∼6.5 nm), magnesium fluoride (∼1 nm), and aluminum (∼300 nm). X-ray photoelectron spectrosc...
متن کاملEffect of Silicon Nanowire on Crystalline Silicon Solar Cell Characteristics
Nanowires (NWs) are recently used in several sensor or actuator devices to improve their ordered characteristics. Silicon nanowire (Si NW) is one of the most attractive one-dimensional nanostructures semiconductors because of its unique electrical and optical properties. In this paper, silicon nanowire (Si NW), is synthesized and characterized for application in photovoltaic device. Si NWs are ...
متن کاملPassivated Tunneling Contacts to N-Type Wafer Silicon and Their Implementation into High Performance Solar Cells: Preprint
We present a case that passivated contacts based on a thin tunneling oxide layer, combined with a transport layer with properly selected workfunction and band offsets, can lead to high efficiency c-Si solar cells. Passivated contacts contribute to cell efficiency as well as design flexibility, process robustness, and a simplified process flow. Material choices for the transport layer are examin...
متن کاملEvaluation of the electron momentum density of crystalline systems from ab initio linear combination of atomic orbitals calculations
Alternative techniques are presented for the evaluation of the electron momentum density (EMD) of crystalline systems from ab initio linear combination of atomic-orbitals calculations performed in the frame of one-electron self-consistent-field Hamiltonians. Their respective merits and drawbacks are analyzed with reference to two periodic systems with very different electronic features: the ful...
متن کاملA Low Resistance Calcium/Reduced Titania Passivated Contact for High Efficiency Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells
Advances in the efficiency of crystalline silicon (c-Si) photovoltaic (PV) devices above the long-held record efficiency value of 25% have all come from solar cell architectures with passivated contacts fabricated on n-type silicon.[1] The most successful devices to date have a silicon heterojunction (SHJ) cell structure, featuring a thin intrinsic amorphous silicon (a-Si) film that passivates ...
