Improvement of polycrystalline silicon solar cells with grain-boundary hydrogenation techniques
Journal Article
·
· Appl. Phys. Lett.; (United States)
Electron-beam-induced-current-- and dark-current--voltage measurements have been made on p/n photovoltaic cells fabricated from polycrystalline silicon. These data have demonstrated that grain-boundary hydrogenation greatly reduces grain-boundary minority carrier recombination and improves diode current-voltage characteristics.
