摘要
We investigated the new materials applicable for the field effect passivation layer in crystalline Si solar cells, ZrO2-Al2O3 and ZrO2-Y2O3 binary systems, by using combinatorial synthesis method. As-deposited samples indicated hysteresis curves and flat band-voltage (V-FB) shifts at capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. After oxygen gas annealing (OGA) at 700 degrees C for 5min, an improvement of the hysteresis and a positive shift of V-FB were observed. OGA process influenced defects density related to decreasing oxygen vacancy. OGA processed ZrO2 incorporated with 20% Al2O3 and 15% Y2O3 structures showed the maximized negative fixed charge of-5.8 X 10(12) cm(-2) and -7.8 X 10(12) cm(-2) in each system, respectively, suggesting that the ZrO2 based alloy systems were revealed to be the promising material for the passivation in the solar cell application.
