Optical and Electrical Effects of p-type μc-SiOx:H in Thin-Film Silicon Solar Cells on Various Front Textures

p-type hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon oxide (µc-SiOx:H) was developed and implemented as a contact layer in hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) single junction solar cells. Higher transparency, sufficient electrical conductivity, low ohmic contact to sputtered ZnO:Al, and tunable refracti...
