Transparent Back Contacts for Superstrate (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se Thin Film Solar Cells
Photovoltaics, IEEE Journal of （2015）
摘要
Molybdenum oxide (MoO3) and tungsten oxide (WO3) are considered as transparent back contacts for (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 thin film solar cells. MoO3 and WO3 films were deposited by reactive RF sputtering at room temperature in an Ar/O2 ambient on (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 absorber layers with various Ga/(Ga + In) and Ag/(Ag + Cu) ratios. Determination of the valence band offsets by XPS showed that Ag-alloying of absorber layer changes the energy band alignment at the absorber-back contact interface with MoO3 and WO3 contacts. This produces a primary contact with lower valence band offset compared with Cu(In,Ga)Se2 counterparts. The effect is less significant in films with Ga > 0.5 and Ag > 0.5 (corresponding to Eg > 1.4 eV) probably due to the different nature of ordered vacancy compounds forming near the surface phases.
