Description

High-transmittance magnesium-doped zinc oxide film and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor films, and particularly relates to a high-transmittance magnesium-doped zinc oxide film, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
With the increase of energy demand of human beings, the traditional energy sources are not only limited, but also bring great harm to the environment. The solar energy is used as an environment-friendly renewable energy source, has the advantages of wide distribution area, easy exploitation and no environmental pollutionThe advantages of environmental limitation and the like, and has great potential in new energy. Among them, the thin film solar cell has certain advantages in terms of volume, plasticity, raw materials (including a base material), and the like. The film battery component has simple preparation process, the film forming time is reduced to a certain extent compared with that of a silicon-based solar battery, and the film battery component can be integrated with other building materials or functional materials. The copper zinc tin sulfur film solar cell has rich and nontoxic components and has an absorption coefficient higher than 10 4 cm -1 The direct band gap semiconductor has a theoretical conversion efficiency of 32.2%, and has great development potential in future markets. The thin film solar cell is of a layered structure, wherein the buffer layer can not only link the energy band structure of the absorption layer and the window layer in the thin film solar cell, but also reduce lattice defects between the layers. Currently, most of copper zinc tin sulfide thin film solar cells adopt cadmium sulfide as a buffer layer. But cadmium is toxic, and the forbidden bandwidth is 2.4eV, which is unfavorable for the transmission of short wavelength.
Zinc oxide is a II-VI semiconductor, and has the advantages of low cost, abundant and nontoxic raw materials, high light transmittance, good conductivity and the like, and the wide band gap of 3.37eV and the large exciton binding energy of 60meV at room temperature. But the energy band structure between the zinc oxide and the copper zinc tin sulfur absorption layer is a cliff-shaped structure, which is unfavorable for carrier transmission. In order to enable zinc oxide to replace a cadmium sulfide buffer layer, the energy band structure of a zinc oxide film can be effectively changed by doping, the carrier concentration can be changed, and the energy band matching degree between the buffer layer and a copper zinc tin sulfide absorption layer in the film solar cell can be optimized. On the other hand, due to Mg 2+ And Zn 2+ The ionic radius of (2) is only 0.003nm, so that the magnesium atoms can well replace zinc atoms or be dissolved in the zinc oxide crystal structure in a solid manner. But some problems are encountered during actual operation. Wang et al prepared Zn by sol-gel method 1-x Mg x O (x=0 to 0.5) alloy films, it was found that the solid solubility of magnesium in zinc oxide was saturated at a magnesium content of x=0.23. (Wang M, kim E J, kim S, et al optical and Structural Properties ofSol-gel Prepared Mg ZnO Alloy Thin Films [ J)]Thin Solid Films,2008, 516 (6): 1124-1129.) Anhui DadaTeam Wang Weina study found that with Zn 1-x Mg x Increase in x value in O film, mg 2+ Substitution of Zn 2+ The number of (c) is increased, so that the lattice constant is decreased and the crystallinity is deteriorated. In addition, mg is liable to generate MgO in an aerobic environment to inhibit Zn 1- x Mg x And (3) generating an O film. (Wang Weina, fang Qingqing, zhou Jun, etc.. Influence of the preparation Process on the structure and optical Properties of Zn1-xMgxO film [ J ]]Physical journal, 2009, 58 (05): 3461-3467.) C.

The zinc-magnesium oxide film is prepared by adopting an atomic layer deposition method with high cost, diethyl zinc is used as a zinc source, bis (cyclopentadiene) magnesium is used as a magnesium source and nitrogen is used as a carrier gas in a microchemical F-120 reactor, and the zinc-magnesium oxide film is prepared by adopting a ZnO and MgO alternate deposition mode. (PLATZER-BJORKMAN C, TORNDAHL T, HULTQVIST A, et al optimization of ALD- (Zn, mg) O buffer layers and (Zn, mg) O/Cu (In, ga) Se2 interfaces for thin film solar cells [ J ]].Thin Solid Films,2007,515(15):6024-6027)。
At present, magnesium doped zinc oxide films gradually attract attention of scientific researchers, the film preparation effect is better and better, and the preparation cost is higher and higher. In addition, as the magnesium oxide has a cubic crystal structure, the solid solubility of magnesium element in the zinc oxide film is limited, the magnesium element doping is seriously influenced by the environment and the preparation process, secondary phase precipitation is easy to form, and the conversion efficiency of the film solar cell is reduced.

The invention relates to an application of a high-transmittance magnesium-doped zinc oxide film in a copper zinc tin sulfide film solar cell buffer layer.
The preparation principle is as follows: according to the invention, the zinc oxide film is doped with magnesium element, so that the forbidden bandwidth and the carrier concentration of the film can be effectively regulated and controlled. This is because doping of the magnesium element introduces additional electrons that occupy the conduction band of zinc oxide, thereby increasing the carrier concentration. On the other hand, since the electronegativity of magnesium element is greater than that of zinc element, doping of magnesium element forms impurity energy levels which are located in the band gap of zinc oxide and affect the forbidden band width of zinc oxide film. In addition, if the forbidden bandwidth of the magnesium doped zinc oxide film is larger than photon energy, the film cannot absorb the part of sunlight, so that the transmittance of the film is greatly increased. In addition, the bandwidth of the magnesium-doped zinc oxide film can be arbitrarily adjusted by changing the doping amount of magnesium element, and if a spike-shaped energy band structure of 0-0.4 eV is formed between the magnesium-doped zinc oxide film buffer layer and the copper zinc tin sulfide absorption layer, the transmission resistance of electrons can be effectively reduced, so that the electrons can be freely transmitted between the two materials. The small spike-shaped energy band structure can improve the open circuit voltage of the copper zinc tin sulfur solar cell. This is because under this structure, the charge forms a built-in electric field between the copper zinc tin sulfide and the buffer layer, so that electrons and holes are separated and are not easily recombined, and the open circuit voltage is further improved. In addition, under the structure, the recombination rate of electrons and holes is lower, thereby reducing the loss of photo-generated carriers and improving the filling of the batteryAnd (5) filling factors. In addition, due to Mg 2+ And Zn 2+ The ionic radius of the magnesium oxide is only 0.003nm, the magnesium oxide with a cubic crystal structure is not separated out under the condition of controlling the preparation process, and magnesium atoms can well replace zinc atoms or be dissolved in the hexagonal wurtzite zinc oxide crystal structure in a solid mode. Therefore, the magnesium-doped zinc oxide film has excellent optical and electrical properties, so that the magnesium-doped zinc oxide film is more suitable for application to photoelectric devices such as solar cells.
The beneficial effects are that: compared with the prior art, the invention has the following remarkable characteristics:
1. the obtained magnesium doped zinc oxide film has a single-phase hexagonal wurtzite structure, no secondary phase is separated out, the surface of the film is uniform and compact, and leakage current can be greatly reduced when the film is applied to a copper zinc tin sulfide film solar cell buffer layer;

As is clear from tables 1 and 2, in this production process, the magnesium doping content has little influence on the transmittance of the zinc oxide film, but as the magnesium doping content increases, the resistivity of the zinc oxide film starts to gradually increase. This is probably due to the fact that as the magnesium doping content increases, defects in the zinc oxide film increase, resulting in a hindered carrier transport. As can be seen from Table 1, the effect of trace magnesium doping on the energy band of zinc oxide is obvious, which shows that the purpose of the energy band structure of zinc oxide film can be achieved by doping magnesium. On the other hand, the resistivity is slightly reduced with the increase of the annealing temperature, and the semiconductor characteristic is reflected.
FIG. 1 is a graph of a sample of a magnesium doped zinc oxide film having an annealing temperature of 550℃in example 4. As can be seen from fig. 1, the film is uniform and transparent on the surface after being prepared using this method.
Fig. 2 is an XRD pattern of the magnesium-doped zinc oxide thin film of example 4. From fig. 2, it can be seen that the zinc oxide film with the doping content of five magnesium elements has no secondary phase precipitation, the crystal structure is a hexagonal wurtzite structure of zinc oxide, and magnesium ions basically exist in a solid solution or alternative zinc ion mode. From the diffraction peaks at different angles in the graph, the thin film grows in a polycrystalline growth mode.
Fig. 3 is an SEM image of the magnesium-doped zinc oxide film of example 4, and (a) to (e) are surface topography images corresponding to stoichiometric ratios of 0.16, 0.18, 0.20, 0.22 and 0.24, respectively, of magnesium element. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the surface morphology of the zinc oxide films doped with different magnesium contents is approximately uniform, all are interwoven together in a woven manner, and the overall morphology is uniform and has no holes. Zn (zinc) 0.84 Mg 0.16 The surface of the O sample also scatters some small precipitated crystal blocks. And gradually disappearing small crystal blocks precipitated on the surface of the film after the magnesium content is increased, so as to form uniform morphology. But magnesium elementWhen the stoichiometric ratio is 0.24, a large number of cracks appear on the surface of the film after annealing for 3 hours at 550 ℃, and when the stoichiometric ratio is 0.20, the surface has slight cracks, which also shows that the uniformity of the surface morphology can be damaged due to excessive doping of magnesium element.
FIG. 4 is a UV diagram of zinc oxide films doped with different magnesium contents of example 4. As can be seen, the transmittance of the zinc oxide thin film at the doping of different magnesium contents is at the level of 90% as a whole. Wherein the minimum transmittance is Zn 0.84 Mg 0.16 The O film may be due to small crystal blocks precipitated on the surface of the film, which cause a part of scattering for light transmission. Zn (zinc) 0.76 Mg 0.24 The O film possesses a high transmittance of 94% probably due to cracks in the film surface.
FIG. 5 is a graph showing the forbidden bandwidths of zinc oxide films doped with different magnesium contents in example 4. As can be seen from FIG. 5, the forbidden band width of the zinc oxide films doped with different magnesium contents fluctuates within the range of 3.33-3.52 eV, zn 0.84 Mg 0.16 The forbidden band width of the O film is 3.33eV, zn 0.76 Mg 0.24 The maximum forbidden bandwidth of the O film is 3.52eV, which directly proves that the doping of magnesium element can enlarge the forbidden bandwidth of the zinc oxide film.
FIG. 6 is a graph of the resistivity of zinc oxide films doped with different magnesium contents of example 4. As can be seen from FIG. 6, zn is removed 1-x Mg x The three magnesium doping contents except x=0.20 and x=0.24 in O have resistivity proportional to the doping amount of magnesium element, and the resistivity is increased to a certain extent with the increase of the magnesium content. It is possible that defects in the crystal structure are increased due to the increase of magnesium element, and carrier movement is hindered. The resistivity of the samples corresponding to x=0.20 and x=0.24 was reduced, possibly due to surface-formed cracks in combination with surface topography analysis.
