中文简介:
典型的薄膜硅太阳能电池沉积在覆盖有导电透明金属氧化物的玻璃基板上。太阳能电池的有源部分由三到六个硅层组成,每个硅层一层又一层地沉积,厚度为十到几百纳米。在这些结构中,具有不同的单独光学间隙的层堆叠在一起,以便覆盖尽可能多的太阳光谱。通过改变材料的结构,从纯无定形变为单晶,可以使用相同的材​​料获得光学间隙的变化。在过去十年中,以纳米晶体形式存在的硅在这种意义上受到了特别的关注。对于任何实际用途,重要的是要知道这种结构中纳米颗粒的尺寸和尺寸分布。通过用氢稀释的硅烷气体在射频辉光放电中的分解,制备了一系列多层硅薄膜。通过改变硅烷与氢的比例来处理具有不同尺寸的纳米微晶(nc Si)的薄膜。通过拉曼光谱(RS)和高分辨率透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)研究了硅薄膜的纳米结构。微晶硅的拉曼光谱在521 cm 1处显示一个强烈的锐带。对于小于30 nm的微晶,该带(横向光学TO模式)变宽,并且其位置移至较低频率。偏移取决于平均微晶尺寸。光谱去卷积后,根据nc Si的拉曼光谱中TO模式的移动,可以估算研究样品中的纳米微晶的尺寸。结晶相的体积分数可以从拉曼光谱去卷积后结晶TO和非晶TO模式的积分强度之比来估算。由于反卷积过程会影响所得结果的准确性,因此应用了各种反卷积方法。因此,为了计算拉曼位移和积分强度,通常将光谱拟合为非晶(高斯)贡献和晶体贡献(Voight)的总和。我们进一步对光谱进行了卷积运算,但是使用的程序与文献中通常描述的程序有所不同。由于多层nc Si薄膜的光谱可以反卷积为属于a Si的模和nc Si结晶级分的TO模,因此我们首先通过从硅中完全减去Si的实验光谱直接去除了非晶态贡献。多层nc Si样品的光谱nc Si中的TO带表现为不对称且宽,这表明较小和较大的晶体共存,因此我们将nc Si的TO模式解卷积为两个分量。可以将这两个分量分配为一个属于小微晶,另一个属于大微晶。
课程简介: A typical thin-film silicon solar cell is deposited on a glass substrate covered with a conductive transparent metal oxide. The active part of a solar cell consists of three to six silicon layers, each with a thickness of ten to several hundred nanometers, deposited in a layer-by-layer fashion. In these structures layers with different individual optical gaps is stacked together, in order to cover as much of the solar spectrum as possible. By changing the structure of the material, going from pure anorphous to monocrystalline, it is possible to obtain the variation in optical gap using the same material. Silicon in the form of nanocrystals drags in that sense particular attention in last decade. For any practical use, it is important to know size and size distribution of nano particles in this kind of structure. A series of multilayered silicon thin films was prepared by the decomposition of silane gas, diluted with hydrogen, in a radio-frequency glow discharge. Films with nanocrystallites (nc-Si) of different sizes were processed by varying the silane-to-hydrogen ratio. The nanostructures of the silicon thin films were studied by Raman spectroscopy (RS) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Raman spectrum of the microcrystalline Si shows one intensive sharp band at 521 cm-1. For crystallites smaller than 30 nm this band (transversal optical - TO mode) is broadened and its position is shifted to lower frequencies. The shift is dependent on the average crystallite sizes. The size of the nanocrystallites in the investigated samples was estimated from the shift of the TO mode in the Raman spectra of the nc-Si after the deconvolution of the spectra. The volume fraction of the crystalline phase can be estimated from the ratio of the integrated intensities of the crystalline TO and the amorphous TO modes after the deconvolution of the Raman spectra. Since the deconvolution procedure influences the accuracy of obtained result, various methods of deconvolution were applied. Therefore, for the calculation of the Raman shifts and the integrated intensities, the spectra are frequently fitted as the sum of amorphous (Gaussian) contributions and crystalline contribution (Voight). We further deconvoluted the spectra, but using a somewhat different procedure than that one usually described in the literature. Since the spectra of the multilayered nc-Si thin films can be deconvoluted to the modes belonging to the a-Si and the TO mode of the nc-Si crystalline fraction, we first removed the amorphous contribution directly by subtracting the experimental spectra of completely a-Si from the spectra of our multilayered nc-Si samples. The TO band in the nc-Si appears as asymmetric and broad, which suggests the coexistence of smaller and larger crystals, so we deconvoluted the TO mode of the nc-Si into two components. The two components can be assigned as one belonging to the small crystallites, and the other to the larger crystallites.
