    摘要: Methods and compositions for forming porous low refractive index coatings on substrates are provided. The method comprises coating a substrate with a sol-formulation comprising silica based nanoparticles and an alkyltrialkoxysilane based binder. Use of the alkyltrialkoxysilane based binder results in a porous low refractive index coating having bimodal pore distribution including mesopores formed from particle packing and micropores formed from the burning off of organics including the alkyl chain covalently bonded to the silicon. The mass ratio of binder to particles may vary from 0.1 to 20. Porous coatings formed according to the embodiments described herein demonstrate good optical properties (e.g. a low refractive index) while maintaining good mechanical durability due to the presence of a high amount of binder and a close pore structure.

    摘要: The current invention describes a process and texturing solution for texturing a crystalline silicon substrate to provide a light trapping surface within a crystalline silicon based solar cell. In an embodiment the texturing process includes a pre-treatment of hydrofluoric acid followed by the application of a texturing solution that includes potassium hydroxide (KOH) and butanol. The application of the texturing solution may be followed by a hydrofluoric acid post-treatment. A combinatorial method of optimizing the textured surface of a crystalline silicon substrate is also described.

    摘要: Methods for improving selective deposition of a capping layer on a patterned substrate are presented, the method including: receiving the patterned substrate, the patterned substrate including a conductive region and a dielectric region; forming a molecular masking layer (MML) on the dielectric region; preparing an electroless (ELESS) plating bath, where the ELESS plating bath includes: a cobalt (Co) ion source: a complexing agent: a buffer: a tungsten (W) ion source: and a reducing agent; and reacting the patterned substrate with the ELESS plating bath for an ELESS period at an ELESS temperature and an ELESS pH so that the capping layer is selectively formed on the conductive region. In some embodiments, methods further include a pH adjuster for adjusting the ELESS pH to a range of approximately 9.0 pH to 9.2 pH. In some embodiments, the pH adjuster is tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH). In some embodiments, the MML is hydrophilic.

    摘要: A method for forming a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) film for use in a TFPV solar device comprises the formation of a tin oxide film doped with between about 5 volume % and about 40 volume % antimony (ATO). Advantageously, the Sb concentration generally ranges from about 15 volume % to about 20 volume % and more advantageously, the Sb concentration is about 19 volume %. The ATO films exhibited almost no change in transmission characteristics between about 300 nm and about 1100 nm or resistivity after either a 15 hour exposure to water or an anneal in air for 8 minutes at 650 C, which indicated the excellent durability. Control sample of Al doped zinc oxide (AZO) exhibited degradation of resistivity for both a 15 hour exposure to water and an anneal in air for 8 minutes at 650 C.
