研究目的
Investigating the influence of boron doping amount on the properties of ZnO:B films grown by LPCVD technique and its correlation to a-Si:H/μc-Si:H tandem solar cells.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that boron doping significantly affects the electrical and optical properties of ZnO:B films, with a threshold doping level that impacts grain size and light-scattering capacity. Optimal doping levels can enhance the performance of a-Si:H/μc-Si:H tandem solar cells, suggesting the importance of precise doping control for solar cell applications.
研究不足
The study focuses on the influence of boron doping on ZnO:B films and their application in solar cells, but does not explore other dopants or alternative deposition techniques. The threshold effect of doping gas flow on grain size reduction may limit the optimization of film properties beyond certain doping levels.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Boron-doped ZnO:B films were prepared on large-area glass substrates using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) technique with varying doping levels. The influence of doping amount on the films' properties was investigated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
BZO films with various doping levels and undoped ZnO films were deposited on large-area glass substrates. The films were characterized for their electrical and optical properties.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment used includes a Bruker D8 Advance X-ray diffractometer, SEM (Hitachi S4800), XY-Table test set-up, Hall measurement system (Lake Shore EM4-HVA 7700), SIMS (Cameca 4F), spectrometer (Pekin Elmer Lambda 950), and EQE system (PV measurement QEX10). Materials include diethylzinc (DEZ), diborane (B2H6), and water as precursors.

Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The deposition process involved setting flows of water and DEZ vapors as precursors and varying the B2H6 flow to achieve different doping levels. The films were then characterized for their structural, electrical, and optical properties.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The crystallite size was calculated using the Debye–Scherrer equation. Electrical properties were analyzed using Hall measurements, and optical properties were evaluated through transmission and haze factor measurements.
