Effective Dielectric Passivation Scheme in Area-Selective Front/Back Poly-Si/SiOx Passivating Contact Solar Cells

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

Explored different dielectric passivation schemes on lifetime samples after removing poly-Si completely. Showed that SiNx/Al2O3 had the best passivation properties on SiOx/n+ c-Si in diffused surface. Applied SiNx/Al2O3 stack on poly-Si/SiOx passivating contact device and showed large improvement in Jsc, with best device efficiency of 21.8%. Future work: CV measurement of dielectric stacks to obtain Qf and Dit.
