摘要
AFORS-HET was utilized to explore the optimized energy band profile of the emitter(p) for the c-Si(n) based heterojunction solar cell. To obtain high efficiency, the valence band maximum level (E-v) of the emitter should be lower than that of the c-Si base. When the valence band offset vertical bar Delta E-v vertical bar = 0.4 eV, the doping activation energy (E-a) of the emitter can be as high as about 0.36 eV. Except for this, E-a should be reduced to lower E-f. The conduction band minimum level (E-r) of the emitter should be at least 0.2 eV higher than that of the c-Si base.
