Description

一种采用SiO2作为Window层的太阳能电池
技术领域
本发明涉及一种采用SiO2作为Window层的太阳能电池的制备方法,属半导体芯片技术领域。
背景技术
随着现代工业的发展,全球能源危机和大气污染问题日益突出,太阳能作为理想的可再生能源受到了越来越多国家的重视,开展太阳能电池研究、发展光伏发电产业对国家能源的可持续发展具有非常重要的意义。目前,太阳能电池的面临的主要问题为光电转换效率较低,性价比不高,不能满足大规模民用的需求。
SiO2具有硬度高、耐磨性好、绝热性好、光透过率高、抗侵蚀能力强以及良好的介电性质。通过对各种制备方法、制备工艺的开发和不同组分配比对SiO2薄膜的影响研究,制备具有优良性能的透明SiO2薄膜的工作已经取得了很大进展。在薄膜在诸多领域得到了很好的应用。
采用禁带宽度约为9eV的SiO2薄层作为太阳能电池的Window层,基本不吸收太阳光谱,可以有效的减少短波长光子能量损失,提高太阳能电池转换效率。
发明内容
本发明要解决的技术问题是减少Window层对太阳光的吸收,提高太阳能电池转换效率。
为实现上述目的,本发明采用的技术方案为一种采用SiO2作为Window层的太阳能电池,包括衬底1、电池PN结构2、SiO2Window层3、Contact接触层4。
采用禁带宽度约为9eV的SiO2超薄层(1-3nm)作为太阳能电池的Window层,基本不吸收太阳光谱,可以有效的减少短波长光子能量损失,提高太阳能电池转换效率。此外,SiO2具有硬度高、耐磨性好、绝热性好、光透过率高、抗侵蚀能力强以及良好的介电性质。同时,SiO2薄层制备方法已非常成熟、具有价格低廉、可控性高等优点。
在衬底1上完成电池PN结构2制备后,在电池PN结构2上制备一层SiO2Window层3,在SiO2Window层3上制备Contact接触层4。由于该SiO2Window层3厚度为1-3nm,Contact接触层4中的电子或空穴可通过量子效应,隧穿至SiO2Window层3中,形成闭合回路。
与现有技术相比,通过采用1-3nmSiO2薄层作为太阳能电池的Window层,通过隧穿效应与电池PN结相连接,可以非常有利于减少太阳光子能量损失,提高太阳能电池转换效率。
