چکیده

In Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin-film solar cells, interface recombination is one of the most important limiting factors with respect to device performance. Herein, metal–insulator–semiconductor samples are used investigate and compare passivation effects Al2O3 HfO2 at CIGS. Capacitance–voltage–frequency measurements allow qualitatively quantitatively assess existence high negative charge density (Q f ≈ −1012 cm−2) low interface-trap (D it 1011 cm−2 eV−1). At rear CIGS these, respectively, induce field-effect chemical passivation. A trade-off highlighted between stronger for lower Al2O3. This motivates usage front cells but raises issue its processing compatibility buffer layer. Therefore, an innovative Al2O3/HfO2 multistack design proposed investigated first time. Effective similarly demonstrated this novel design, suggesting potential decrease in rate increased efficiency. 300 °C annealing N2 environment enable enhance effectiveness by reducing D while surface cleaning may reveal useful alternative methods.

An experimental and theoretical study on the physical properties of Al doped ZnO thin films

In this research, ZnO thin films with Al impurity as dopant were coated onto cleaned glass substrates by the spray pyrolysis technique. Crystal structure of the thin films was studied via XRD, and UV-vis spectroscopy was carried out to investigate their optical properties. Finally, in order to study the effect of Al impurity in ZnO thin films, the band structures of both pure and doped systems ...

Ionization energy measurements and spectroscopy of HfO and HfO+.

Rotationally resolved spectra for the HfO(+) cation have been recorded using the pulsed field ionization zero electron kinetic energy (PFI-ZEKE) technique. Resonant excitation of the F(0(+))<--X (1)Sigma(+) band system of HfO was used as an intermediate level providing molecule and rovibrational state selectivity in the ionization process. The ionization energy (IE) of HfO, derived from the PFI...

Comparison of n-type Gd(2)O(3) and Gd-doped HfO(2).

Gd(2)O(3) and Gd-doped HfO(2) films were deposited on p-type silicon substrates in a reducing atmosphere. Gd 4f photoexcitation peaks at roughly 7 and 5 eV below the valence band maximum have been identified using the resonant photoemission of Gd(2)O(3) and Gd-doped HfO(2) films, respectively. In the case of Gd(2)O(3), strong hybridization with the O 2p band is demonstrated, and there is eviden...
