BUFFER LAYER FOR HIGH PERFORMING AND LOW LIGHT DEGRADED SOLAR CELLS |
摘要 |
Methods for forming a photovoltaic device include forming a buffer layer between a transparent electrode and a p-type layer. The buffer layer includes a doped germanium-free silicon base material. The buffer layer has a work function that falls within barrier energies of the transparent electrode and the p-type layer. An intrinsic layer and an n-type layer are formed on the p-type layer. Devices are also provided. |

1. A method for forming a photovoltaic device, comprising:
forming a buffer layer between a transparent electrode and a p-type layer, the buffer layer including a doped germanium-free silicon base material, the buffer layer including a work function that falls within barrier energies of the transparent electrode and the p-type layer, wherein said work function is adjusted by varying the deposition power; and forming an intrinsic layer and an n-type layer on the p-type layer. |
