内容記述 | Formation of a textured or grooved front surface on a solar cell can increase the efficiency in several ways, including enhanced absorption and light trapping. In III-IV materials the (111) plane is chemically different form the (1'1'1') plane, and both etching and epitaxial deposition behave differently on these surfaces. The current state of profile etching in InP is summarized. Data are presented on novel geometries attainable as a function of etchant temperature and composition, substrate orientation and carrier concentration, and the oxide thickness between the substrate and the photoresist. Depending on dopant concentration, the same etchant can produce either anisotropic or isotropic grooves. V-grooved solar cells were manufactured on InP, and the improved optical absorption was demonstrated. Preferred parameters for various applications are listed and discussed. |
