摘要
High carrier recombination loss at the metal and silicon contact regions is one of the dominant factors constraining the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells. Metal compound-based carrier-selective contacts are being intensively developed to address this issue. In this work, we present a high-performance electron-selective SiOx/MgOx contact for c-Si solar cells. The SiOx/MgOx stack is prepared by thermally-grown SiOx (similar to 0.7 nm) and thermally-evaporated MgOx (similar to 1.0 nm). The electron selectivity of SiOx/MgOx contact is investigated by measuring the surface passivation and the contact resistivity (rho(c)) on the c-Si surface. The results demonstrate that optimized SiOx/MgOx contact displays a very low rho(c) (3.4 m Omega cm(2)) and a good surface passivation on an n-type c-Si surface simultaneously. A high PCE of 21.1% is achieved on an n-type c-Si solar cell featuring a full-area SiOx/MgOx rear contact.
