Popis: | Silicon oxide films phosphorus doped and formed by a spin-on technique are proposed for the manufacture of shallow, heavily doped -p junctions. The structures were investigated using electron microscopy, optical and electrical methods. Transient microwave absorption measurements were performed to monitor the quality of the doping by evaluation of the surface recombination velocity and the bulk lifetime. Such a simple -p junction formation technique is suitable for the fabrication of a silicon solar cell with a highly doped and shallow emitter. The usual recombination rates at the surfaces are reduced by more than an order of magnitude. The tentative solar cells have been manufactured, and an efficiency of 12% was achieved. |
