PROCESS FOR FORMING A BACK REFLECTOR FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICES

摘要

A process for forming a textured back reflector for a photovoltaic device is provided. The process includes providing a moving substrate, positioning the substrate within a deposition chamber, and sputtering a metal or a metal alloy target positioned within the deposition chamber to produce sputtered material. The process further includes introducing a reacting gas mixed with argon into the deposition chamber. The reacting gas and the sputtered metal or metal alloy material form an alloy layer. The alloy layer is formed on the substrate and provides a textured surface on the substrate.
