Use of SiO/sub 2/ and TiO/sub 2/ sol-gel antireflection films on silicon solar cells

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5501050
SiO/sub 2/ and TiO/sub 2/ sol-gel solutions were prepared for use as antireflection coatings on silicon solar cells. Multiple layers of the sol-gel were applied to silicon substrates, and the resulting reflectance curves were measured and calculated. The reflectance properties double-layer coatings on silicon were calculated as a function of the thickness of the SiO/sub 2/ and TiO/sub 2/ layers near the optimum range.
