Highly conductive and broadband transparent Zr-doped In2O3 as front electrode for solar cells

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Broadband transparent and highly conducting electrodes are key to avoid parasitic absorption and electrical losses in solar cells. Here, we propose zirconium-doped indium oxide (IO:Zr) as the front electrode in silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. The exceptional properties of this material rely on the combination of high-doping and high electron mobilities, achieving with this a wide optical band gap (3.5–4 eV), low free carrier absorption, and high lateral conductivity. A single film of IO:Zr has an electron mobility of 100 cm^2/Vs with a carrier density of 2.5–3x10^20 cm^-3, resulting in a sheet resistance of around 25 Ω/sq for 100-nm-thick films. Their implementation as a front electrode in SHJ solar cells results in an important gain in current density as compared to the standardly used Sn-doped indium oxide. SHJ devices with the optimized IO:Zr front electrode, resulting in current densities of 40 mA/cm2, a fill factor of 80%, and a conversion efficiency of 23.4%.
