Local atomic structure of the GaN-side of the Al2O3/GaN interface revealed by X-ray absorption spectroscopy
摘要: The interface between a gate insulator (Al2O3) and a semiconductor (GaN) was investigated via surface-sensitive Ga K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, achieved by detecting the Ga LMM Auger electrons originated from the Ga K-shell absorption. This GaN-side interface study was conducted on Al2O3 thin films formed via atomic layer deposition. The determined atomic structures revealed GaN crystalline changes and the formation of Ga–O bonds due to nitrogen annealing.

Synthesis and Characterization of Aluminum Nanoparticles Prepared in Vinegar Using a Pulsed Laser Ablation Technique
摘要: The second harmonic wavelength of a neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd-YAG) laser (λ = 532 nm) was used in a pulsed laser ablation technique (PLAL) to synthesize aluminum nanoparticles suspended in white vinegar from an aluminum target. The nanoparticles were characterized by HRTEM and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. They were found to range in size between 2 and 50 nm in diameter, with an average diameter of 12 ± 9 nm. The nanoparticles had a maximum absorption peak at 237 nm and were found to exhibit a core-shell structure with an Al core coated by a thin layer of an amorphous material which could be attributed to amorphous carbon. HRTEM results revealed that the small nanoparticles (<20 nm) had an fcc phase of aluminum crystalline structure, where the larger particles represented alumina (γ-Al2O3) nanoparticles. Such observation suggests that the use of white vinegar as an ablation medium could facilitate the synthesis of aluminum nanoparticles with minimal evidence of the existence of aluminum oxide nanoparticles in the resultant suspension.

Influence of aluminum nanoparticles and binders on the laser initiation of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine
摘要: Aluminum nanoparticles were added into cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) to enhance the laser absorption and lower the initiation energy of pulse laser. Polyvinyl acetate (PVA), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), and fluororubber (F2314) were added into RDX as binders to prepare the RDX-based composite explosives with desirable mechanical behavior. The influence of aluminum nanoparticles and binders on the light absorption, thermal behavior, laser initiation energy and the electron temperature in aluminum plasma were investigated using reflectance spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, laser initiation and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. Results showed that the addition of aluminum nanoparticles could prominently lower the laser initiation energy of the RDX-based explosives. The RDX doped with 2.0% aluminum nanoparticles could be reliably initiated with 1.5 J/cm2 laser energy (1064 nm, 8 ns). The laser initiation energy increased to 1.7, 2.4 and 2.9 J/cm2 with the additions of 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% F2314 binders, respectively. When the addition of PVA and PVB increased to 2.0%, the RDX-based explosives couldn’t be initiated by pulse laser. When the pulse laser radiated on the surface of the RDX-based composite explosives, the aluminum nanoparticles absorbed the laser energy and were heated to high temperature to initiate the explosives. The addition of binders can provide desirable mechanical behavior, but the laser initiation energy increased because the heat transmission from aluminum nanoparticles to RDX was hindered.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Novel Foil Interconnects for Back-Contact Silicon Solar Cells
摘要: Large area back-contact solar cells enable module costs almost as low as those of PERCs but with higher efficiency. Traditional tabbing and stringing interconnects are problematic for back-contact cells, however, as placing all the tabs on one side of the wafer causes bowing due to CTE mismatch. Back-contact cells can be effectively encapsulated using Cu conductive back-sheets (CBS) with electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) interconnects but the cost is higher than for ribbon tabbing. In this paper we present a method for replacing the Cu CBS with a cheaper Al version and the ECA with several cheaper and potentially more robust methods for connecting the foil to the cell.

Study of optical and structural properties of sputtered aluminum nitride films with controlled oxygen content to fabricate Distributed Bragg Reflectors for ultraviolet A
摘要: Aluminum nitride (AlN) films with controlled oxygen content were deposited on silicon substrates, and optical properties studied with dependency on film morphology. Combinations of argon (Ar) and nitrogen (N2) gases were used in RF magnetron sputtering of an AlN target. The resulting refractive index ranging from 1.6 to 2.0 at 400 nm was tuned by controlling the sputter gas flow rate ratio of Ar and N2. The resulting refractive index is associated with density and aluminum nitride content of the thin films. Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBRs) optimized for ultraviolet-A reflectivity were fabricated with pairs of alternating AlN thin films using an explicit combination of low-n and high-n to further investigate the thin film optical properties. The effect of structural transformation in the DBR stack on the progress of optical properties was studied. The DBRs exhibit a negligible extinction coefficient, utilizing precise control of oxygen incorporation with one sputtering target.

Influence of Silicon Layers on the Growth of ITO and AZO in Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells
摘要: In this article, we report on the properties of indium tin oxide (ITO) deposited on thin-film silicon layers designed for the application as carrier selective contacts for silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. We find that ITO deposited on hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si:H) layers presents a significant drop on electron mobility μe in comparison to layers deposited on hydrogenated amorphous silicon films (a-Si:H). The nc-Si:H layers are not only found to exhibit a larger crystallinity than a-Si:H, but are also characterized by a considerably increased surface rms roughness. As we can see from transmission electron microscopy (TEM), this promotes the growth of smaller and fractured features in the initial stages of ITO growth. Furthermore, secondary ion mass spectrometry profiles show different penetration depths of hydrogen from the thin film silicon layers into the ITO, which might both influence ITO and device passivation properties. Comparing ITO to aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO), we find that AZO can actually exhibit superior properties on nc-Si:H layers. We assess the impact of the modified ITO Rsh on the series resistance Rs of SHJ solar cells with >23% efficiency for optimized devices. This behavior should be considered when designing solar cells with amorphous or nanocrystalline layers as carrier selective contacts.

Surface modification of aluminum alloys with carbon nanotubes by laser surface melting
摘要: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) could be an excellent reinforcement for metal matrix composites, specifically for composites with aluminum or aluminum alloy matrix. Surface modification to improve hardness and other material properties has been performed by laser surface melting (LSM) process, where the laser beam melts the substrate together with alloying elements or reinforcing phase additives. In this work, Multiwalled CNTs (MWCNTs) were mixed by the electrostatic adsorption process with aluminum powder and the resulting mixed powder was laser melted on the surface of a 6061-aluminum alloy substrate. As a result, a modified substrate surface has been obtained from the Al/MWCNT – substrate co-melting, dilution and re-solidification processes. This modified layer was obtained by different LSM parameters and were characterized by Optical (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS), Field Emission Gun Scanning Electron Microscopy (FEG-SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Raman Spectroscopy (RS). The resulting mechanical behavior was evaluated by Vickers microhardness tests. The results showed that the presence of MWCNT in the aluminum powder improves the laser energy absorption, leading to the formation of a deeper modified layer, with segregation of Si particles homogeneously dispersed and improving the hardness. The formation of Al4C3 was not observed, evidencing that the MWCNTs did not react with the molten Al matrix during the LSM process.

Increasing Laser-Doping Depth of Al in 4H-SiC by Using Expanded-Pulse Excimer Laser
摘要: Al doping into 4H-SiC performed by irradiating pulse-width-expanded excimer laser to an Al film deposited on the 4H-SiC surface is investigated. An optical pulse stretcher was constructed to produce the laser pulse whose peak intensity was reduced as half as that of the original pulse and pulse width was expanded from 55 ns to 100 ns. The irradiation of the expanded pulses is found to reduce the ablation of the materials from the surface and enable irradiation of multiple shots. As a result, Al doping depth is significantly increased. The multiple shots of the expanded pulses are also found to decrease the sensitivity to spatial non-uniformity of laser intensity and increase the uniformity of doped region.
