研究目的
Investigating the properties of boron-doped zinc oxide (BZO) films prepared by reactive sputtering method and their application in amorphous silicon thin film solar cells.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated the preparation of boron-doped zinc oxide (BZO) films with controlled opto-electronic properties by varying the gas concentration ratio in reactive sputtering. The optimized BZO films showed promising results when applied as transparent conducting oxide in amorphous silicon thin film solar cells, achieving an overall efficiency of 8.14%.
研究不足
The study is limited to the effects of varying the B2H6 gas concentration ratio on the properties of BZO films and their application in amorphous silicon thin film solar cells. The potential for optimization and application in other types of solar cells or optoelectronic devices is not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
BZO thin films were deposited on plain soda-lime glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering method using a ceramic target made of ZnO of
2:99% purity. The gas flow in the sputtering chamber was controlled by using Mass flow controllers (MFCs). Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The percentage of 1% B2H6 in H2 gas in total gas flow was varied from
3:04 to List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
RF magnetron sputtering system (Milman Thin Films Pvt Ltd, India), Mass flow controllers (MFCs), ceramic target made of ZnO, Argon (Ar) gas, 1% B2H6 in H2 gas.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The chamber pressure was maintained at 1×10-2 mbar during deposition. The gas flow in the sputtering chamber was controlled by using MFCs.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The structural, electrical, and optical properties of the BZO films were characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Hall measurement system, spectrophotometer, Ellipsometer, FESEM, and AFM.
