Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a silicon quantum dot film having anisotropy, and discloses a technical method for regulating elemental composition variation to form different strain energy induced anisotropic polymorphous silicon quantum dots, further regulating the absorption spectrum range and obviously improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a used material. The preparation method comprises the following main steps: performing pretreatment prior to coating, performing magnetron co-sputtering on a silicon-germanium alloy target and a carbon target having different composition ratios with Ar ions, regulating the sputtering power of the silicon-germanium target and the carbon target, and depositing a composition-controllable amorphous silicon carbide-germanium film on a silicon and glass base; and then, performing multi-stage annealing treatment in a nitrogen gas atmosphere, thus forming the silicon quantum dot film having anisotropy, which is inlaid in amorphous SiC. The film has multi-exciton effect, and simultaneously has multi-wavelength light absorption characteristics in a wavelength range of 1800nm (infrared) to 300nm (ultraviolet), thus hopefully improving the light absorption and photoelectric conversion efficiency of a silicon-based photovoltaic device greatly.
