Optimization of open circuit voltage for amorphous silicon solar cells at low temperatures by incorporation of p-type silicon carbide window layers
P-i-n type hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells were deposited by RF-PECVD process at a low substrate temperature of 125℃,which is compatible with low-cost PET plastic substrates.High quality p-a-SiC:H film with wide optical band gap (E04=2.02eV) and high conductivity (σd=1.0×10-7S/cm) was deposited at ‘low-power regime’ under low silane flow rates and high H2 dilution conditions.With the combination of wide band gap p-a-SiC:H window layers and intrinsic a-Si:H layers,a high Voc of 1.01V (Efficiency=5.51%,FF=0.72,Jsc=7.58 mA/cm2) was obtained for single junction a-Si:H p-i-n solar cell at a low temperature of 125℃.
