摘要: A photovoltaic device includes a substrate having a plurality of hole shapes formed therein. The plurality of hole shapes each have a hole opening extending from a first surface and narrowing with depth into the substrate. The plurality of hole shapes form a hole pattern on the first surface, and the hole pattern includes flat areas separating the hole shapes on the first surface. A photovoltaic device stack is formed on the first surface and extends into the hole shapes. Methods are also provided.

摘要: A photovoltaic device and method include forming a plurality of pillar structures in a substrate, forming a first electrode layer on the pillar structures and forming a continuous photovoltaic stack including an N-type layer, a P-type layer and an intrinsic layer on the first electrode. A second electrode layer is deposited over the photovoltaic stack such that gaps or fissures occur in the second electrode layer between the pillar structures. The second electrode layer is wet etched to open up the gaps or fissures and reduce the second electrode layer to form a three-dimensional electrode of substantially uniform thickness over the photovoltaic stack.

摘要: Methods for forming a photovoltaic device include forming a buffer layer between a transparent electrode and a p-type layer. The buffer layer includes a doped germanium-free silicon base material. The buffer layer has a work function that falls within barrier energies of the transparent electrode and the p-type layer. An intrinsic layer and an n-type layer are formed on the p-type layer. Devices are also provided.

摘要: Methods for forming a photovoltaic device include forming a buffer layer between a transparent electrode and a p-type layer. The buffer layer includes a work function that falls substantially in a middle of a barrier formed between the transparent electrode and the p-type layer to provide a greater resistance to light induced degradation. An intrinsic layer and an n-type layer are formed over the p-type layer.

摘要: A photovoltaic device includes a substrate layer having a plurality of three-dimensional structures formed therein providing a textured profile. A first electrode is formed over the substrate layer and extends over the three-dimensional structures including non-planar surfaces. The first electrode has a thickness configured to maintain the textured profile, and the first electrode includes a transparent conductive material having a dopant metal activated within the transparent conductive material. A continuous photovoltaic stack is conformally formed over the first electrode, and a second electrode is formed on the photovoltaic stack.

摘要: A dielectric material layer is formed on a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate including a top semiconductor layer containing a first semiconductor material. An opening is formed within the dielectric material layer, and a trench is formed in the top semiconductor layer within the area of the opening by an etch. A second semiconductor material is deposited to a height above the top surface of the top semiconductor layer employing a selective epitaxy process. Another dielectric material layer can be deposited, and another trench can be formed in the top semiconductor layer. Another semiconductor material can be deposited to a different height employing another selective epitaxy process. The various semiconductor material portions can be patterned to form semiconductor fins having different heights and/or different compositions.
