    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.

    摘要: A method for producing antimony doped tin oxide (ATO) films is discussed wherein the films are deposited by reactive sputtering using a non-poisoned mode and then annealed in an air ambient to fully oxidize the films and improve the resistivity and transmission characteristics, and the non-poisoned mode method could improve the throughput. A method using spectroscopic ellipsometry and an independent measurement of an additional optical or physical property is disclosed which results in a significantly improved prediction of the various optical and physical properties of the film, such that the method made the spectroscopic ellipsometry valuable for monitoring and controlling the process in real time, and valuable for determining the carrier density, mobility and their gradients within the film.
