研究目的
Investigating the effects of incorporating copper-indium back-end layers in solution-based Cu(In, Ga)Se2 films on their morphology and photovoltaic properties.
研究成果
The incorporation of copper-indium back-end layers in precursor films significantly improves the morphology and photovoltaic properties of solution-based CIGS films, leading to enhanced solar cell performance. Optimal concentrations of bimetal-ion solutions are crucial for maximizing conversion efficiency.
研究不足
The study focuses on solution-based processes and may not directly apply to vacuum-based fabrication methods. The effects of varying concentrations of bimetal-ion solutions are explored, but other parameters may also influence the results.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved preparing precursor films with and without copper-indium back-end layers using a spin-coating process. The effects of bimetal-ion solution concentrations on the films' properties were investigated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Precursor films were prepared on Mo-coated soda-lime glass substrates. The films were then selenized to synthesize CIGS films.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Copper nitrate, indium nitrate, and gallium nitrate were used as reactants. Equipment included a spin-coater, x-ray diffraction system, secondary ion mass spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The precursor films were prepared, reduced, and selenized. The morphology, phase formation, and photovoltaic properties of the films were analyzed.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The crystalline phases were determined using XRD, elemental depth profiles by SIMS, morphology by SEM and AFM, and photovoltaic performance by I-V measurements.
