摘要 |
Methods of improving the anti-reflection properties of one or more dielectric layers and reducing surface recombination of generated carriers of a solar cell are disclosed. In some embodiments, dopants are introduced into the dielectric layers to improve their anti-reflection properties. In other embodiments, species are introduced into the dielectric layers to create electrical fields which repel the minority carriers away from the surface arid toward the contacts. In another embodiment, mobiles species are introduced to the anti-reflective coating, which cause carrier to be repelled from the surface of the solar cell. By creating a barrier at the surface of the solar cell, undesired recombination at the surface may be reduced. |
