The global RE100 campaign is attracting attention worldwide due to climate change caused by global warming, increasingly highlighting the efficiency of renewable energy. Texturing of photovoltaic devices increases the devices’ efficiency by reducing light reflectance at their surfaces. This study introduces the change in light reflectance following the process conditions of plasma etching as a texturing process to increase the efficiency of photovoltaic cells. Isotropic etching was induced through plasma using SF6 gas, and the etch profile was modulated by adding O2 gas to reduce light reflectance. A high etch rate produces high surface roughness, which results in low surface reflectance properties. The inverse moth-eye structure was implemented using a square PR pattern arranged diagonally and showed the minimum reflectance in visible light at a tip spacing of 1 μm. This study can be applied to the development of higher-efficiency optical devices. |
