Description

The method of CdS film or CdS nanostructureds is grown in CdTe thin film
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of solar batteries, and in particular to CdS film or CdS nanometers are grown in CdTe thin film The method of structure.
Background technology
At present, the traditional energy such as coal, oil occupies leading position in our life, but it is dirty with high energy consumption, height Dye affects our daily life, and it is greatly unfavorable to be brought to our life.And the one kind of solar energy as new energy, Because its is inexhaustible, nexhaustible, it is widely distributed the advantages that enjoy national governments to pay attention to.
CdTe base photovoltaic solar cells are one kind in second generation new energy thin film solar cell.Its core composition portion Divide what is be made up of the CdTe absorbed layers of p-type and the CdS Window layers of n-type.Absorbed layer CdTe material is the half of a kind of direct band gap Conductor, band gap are 1.48 eV, and this is well matched with solar spectrum.Its absorption coefficient is very high, and up to 105 cm-1, it is only necessary to 1 um cans sponge more than 99% visible ray.And the amount needed during preparing film is few, and cost is low.CdS film It is corresponding Window layer.
It is after first growing CdS film with immersion method on ito glass, then thereon near space liter that major part, which prepares device, Magnificent method grows CdTe thin film, then grows electrode.In the preparation process of device, an important factor be want CdTe thin film and Pn-junction is mutually diffuseed to form between CdS film, such preparation method can form mutation in band structure, and CdS and CdTe are thin The problem of lattice mismatch between film be present.
According to the applicant understood, CdS layer is grown in CdTe thin film surface in situ at present(Film or nanostructured)Form pn The method of knot is not reported also.
The content of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is the method for growth in situ n-type CdS film or CdS nanostructureds in p-type CdTe thin film, Be formed in situ pn-junction, and the pn-junction being formed in situ can take be a gradual change process, solve between CdS and CdTe thin film The influence of existing lattice mismatch.
The concrete technical scheme of the present invention is as follows:
The method of CdS film or CdS nanostructureds is grown in a kind of CdTe thin film, is comprised the following steps:
(1)CdTe thin film is fitted into quartz ampoule, is put into sintering furnace, then excludes the excessive gas in quartz ampoule;
(2)Then the mixed gas of H 2 S-containing gas is passed through, heating sintering furnace is annealed to CdTe thin film, annealing temperature Spend for 200 ~ 600 DEG C, annealing time is 10min ~ 3h;
(3)Cool after annealing, take out film, obtain finished product.
Step(1)In, the CdTe thin film includes substrate and film, and the thickness of film is the um of 50 nm ~ 10.
Step(1)In, the CdTe thin film includes substrate and film, and the thickness of film is 50 ~ 500nm;Above-mentioned thickness Film is completely reformed into CdS film under annealing conditions of the present invention;And this thickness can be as the window of battery Layer.Step(1)In, it is passed through protective gas or the excessive gas excluded in quartz ampoule is vacuumized to quartz ampoule.
The protective gas is nitrogen or argon gas.
Step(2)In, the volume of hydrogen sulfide gas accounts for mixed gas cumulative volume 0.5% ~ 100% in the mixed gas;It is logical The size of control hydrogen sulfide gas volumetric concentration is crossed, can indirectly control play of the CdTe thin film at high temperature with hydrogen sulfide reaction Strong degree.
Step(2)In, the air-flow of the mixed gas is 5 ~ 100 sccm;When being full of hydrogen sulfide gas in sintering furnace, Hydrogen sulfide gas can be no longer passed through to be annealed.Following reaction occurs in above-mentioned annealing process:CdTe(s)+H2S(g)=CdS (s)+Te2(g)+H2(g), wherein behalf solid-state, g are gaseous state.Mixed gas air-flow selection above range main function be The concentration of hydrogen sulfide gas is maintained, so that the progress that reaction can continue;In addition in air-flow under drive, Te2Steam is in pipe The low-temperature zone deposition of formula sintering furnace.
Annealing temperature of the present invention is at 200 DEG C ~ 400 DEG C, or CdS film layer is formed in CdTe thin film;Annealing When temperature is 400 ~ 600 DEG C, the CdS film layer formed in CdTe thin film has the generation of CdS nanometers;And the nanometer generated is close Degree is first to increase to reduce afterwards.If increasing annealing time, CdTe thin film is all changed into CdS film.The present invention passes through control condition Annealing forms CdS film, is expected to apply on CdTe base photovoltaic solar batteries, can greatly simplify the preparation flow of battery.This The advantages of sample is equipment is simple, and cost is low etc..And absorption of the glass to light and anti-can be reduced in photovoltaic solar battery Penetrate, direct irradiation of sunlight increases the utilization rate of light in CdS layer.
CdTe thin film of the present invention is prepared using existing method, including close spaced sublimation method, immersion method, Vacuum vapor deposition method, magnetron sputtering method etc..The substrate of CdTe thin film can be glass substrate, sheet metal, flexible substrate, with electricity The substrate of pole, photovoltaic cell substrate etc..
The present invention is put into CdTe thin film in sintering furnace, and is passed through hydrogen sulfide gas, then raises the temperature of sintering furnace, Finally CdS or CdS nanostructureds are generated in CdTe thin film surface in situ.It is basis to generate CdS film or CdS nanostructureds The annealing temperature of setting and determine, it is CdS film that annealing temperature is generated in-situ at 200 DEG C ~ 400 DEG C, and annealing temperature What is generated at 400 ~ 600 DEG C is CdS film and CdS nanostructureds;And generate the substrate of CdS film or CdS nanometers all For CdTe thin film.CdS layer is formed in situ in CdTe thin film(Film or nanostructured), it is formed in situ pn-junction and solves CdS Existing lattice mismatch etc. influences between CdTe thin film.The advantages of this method is that equipment is simple, and growth temperature is low, controllable journey Degree is high, and suitable for the preparation of large area, feasibility circuit is provided for industrial production.
