摘要
The fabrication of p-i-n Si thin film solar cells using a SiH2Cl2-H-2 mixture by rf plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition is presented. A novel p-type nanocrystalline Si:H:Cl film was synthesized from H-2-diluted SiH2Cl2 and SiCl4 with high conductivity and low optical absorption in the visible and near-infrared regions. The Si:H:Cl films showed a high photoconductivity of order of > 10(-6) S/cm under 100 mW/cm(2) white light exposure. The efficiency of 6.2% has been achieved in the p-i-n solar cells fabricated from a SiH2Cl2-H-2 mixture at T-s of 340 degrees C for the first time despite a use of a single chamber system. Not only SiH4 but also SiH2Cl2 is one of possible candidates for fabricating Si thin film solar cells. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
