    摘要: The present invention generally comprises a method for dynamically controlling the temperature of a solar cell substrate during microcrystalline silicon deposition. In amorphous silicon/microcrystalline tandem solar cells, microcrystalline silicon may be deposited using a higher power density and to a greater thickness than amorphous silicon. The higher the power density applied, the faster the deposition may occur, but the temperature of the deposition may also increase. At high temperatures, the likelihood of dopant diffusing into the intrinsic layer of the solar cell and damaging the cell is greater. By dynamically controlling the temperature of the susceptor, the substrate and hence, the dopant can be maintained at a substantially constant temperature below the value at which the dopant may diffuse into the intrinsic layer. The dynamic temperature control permits the microcrystalline silicon to be deposited at a high power density without damaging the solar cell.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods for forming a doped amorphous silicon oxide layer utilized in thin film solar cells. In one embodiment, a method for forming a doped p-type amorphous silicon containing layer on a substrate includes providing a substrate in a processing chamber, supplying a gas mixture having a hydrogen-based gas, a silicon-based gas and a carbon and oxygen containing gas into the processing chamber, the gas mixture having a volumetric flow ratio of the hydrogen-based gas to the silicon-based gas between about 5 and about 15, wherein a volumetric flow ratio of the carbon and oxygen containing gas to the total combined flow of hydrogen-based gas and the silicon-based gas is between about 10 percent and about 50 percent; and maintaining a process pressure of the gas mixture within the processing chamber at between about 1 Torr and about 10 Torr while forming a doped p-type amorphous silicon containing layer.
