Next-generation solarcells usingSi and Si1-xGex nano- and microwire arrays |
초록 |
Silicon wire-based solar cells are one of the attractive candidates for next-generation photovoltaic devices; however, Si has a relatively weak absorption in infrared region, alloying with Ge allows for the useful range of the solar spectrum spanning into a longer wavelength band due to a lower bandgap of Ge. Here, I present the vertical Si and Si1-xGex wires fabricated by metal-assisted electroless etching at a large wafer scale. Shallow junctions could be formed using plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) and spin on doping (SOD) for making a radial p-n junction of wire-based solar cells. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the Si and Si1-xGex wire arrays revealed the periodic, uniform arrays of a vertical wire which were patterned using a 300-nm-thick oxide mask with a hole size of 2 um and 4 um pitches. The diameter and a length of these wires are ~2 and ~20 um, respectively. |
