HJT Solar Cell Surface Morphology Measurement

" Cleaning and Texturing

Similar to conventional solar cell manufacturing, the wet chemical treatment of silicon substrates in heterojunction solar cell production serves three primary purposes:

①Removal of surface contaminants and damaged layers;
②Formation of a textured surface (e.g., pyramidal texture) to reduce light reflection (light trapping) and minimize interface recombination losses;
③Removal of surface oxides and surface passivation to eliminate interface states induced by wet chemical treatment.

A key concern during texturing is the size of the pyramidal texture, which not only affects light reflectivity but also influences the deposition quality of subsequent amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin-film layers.

"PECVD Deposition and Doping of a-Si:H on Front and Back Surfaces

In the fabrication of heterojunction solar cells, doped thin-film layers are required to form the emitter and back surface field (BSF). Intrinsic amorphous silicon (i-a-Si:H) provides excellent passivation for crystalline silicon surfaces, but device performance is sensitive to the thickness of the intrinsic layer and the doping gas concentration during deposition.

On the front surface, an intrinsic a-Si:H layer is first deposited for passivation, followed by an n-type doped a-Si:H layer to form the surface field, enhancing charge carrier separation. Conversely, the back surface is coated with an intrinsic a-Si:H layer and a p-type doped a-Si:H layer, collectively forming the P-N junction.

Due to the sensitivity of PECVD deposition to power and pressure, rigorous thin-film characterization is essential to confirm the formation of amorphous silicon. Raman spectroscopy is a critical technique for this purpose.

For the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, a high content of Si-H bonds, low content of Si-H₂ bonds, and a dense film structure are required to achieve good passivation performance, thus enabling high-efficiency a-Si:H/crystalline silicon heterojunction cells. Additionally, the higher hydrogen content in amorphous silicon compared to microcrystalline silicon and nanocrystalline silicon is one of the reasons for its superior passivation effect. Therefore, precise control of the a-Si:H layer deposition process to achieve high-quality surface passivation is crucial for manufacturing high-efficiency and stable heterojunction solar cells.

Excessively high doping concentrations may disrupt the amorphous silicon network structure and increase the interface state density, while insufficient doping may lead to increased series resistance (Rs) and decreased fill factor (FF) due to inadequate conductivity. Hence, precise control of the doping concentration is necessary.
