Problems solved by technology

However, the bandgap of the amorphous passivation layer widens after incorporation of oxygen, resulting in a larger bandgap discontinuity, especially at the p-a-Si:H / c-Si interface valence band order ΔE V The increase of will affect the collection of hole carriers, such as figure 1 As shown, among them, figure 1 From left to right in the middle: emitter p-a-Si:H103, ordinary passivation layer i-a-Si(O x ): H102, crystalline silicon c-Si101, common passivation layer i-a-Si(O x ): H102 and the back field layer n-a-Si: H104; the energy bands corresponding to each layer below are: conduction band E C , valence band E V , Fermi level E F , and the valence band order ΔE on the p-side of the emitter V
