    摘要: A p type semiconductor layer, an i type crystalline (polycrystalline, microcrystalline) photoelectric conversion layer, and an n type semiconductor layer are successively formed in the same plasma CVD deposition chamber. The p type semiconductor layer is produced on condition that the pressure in the deposition chamber is at least 5 Torr. Accordingly, a silicon-based thin film photoelectric conversion device having the p type semiconductor layer, the i type crystalline photoelectric conversion layer, and the n type semiconductor layer stacked on each other is manufactured. A method of manufacturing a silicon-based thin film photoelectric conversion device is thus implemented to produce a photoelectric conversion device having a superior performance and quality by a simple apparatus at a low cost and with high productivity.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a silicon-based thin-film photoelectric conversion device, where a plasma CVD process is used to deposit a polycrystalline photoelectric conversion layer. During the deposition of the photoelectric conversion layer, the temperature of the underlying layer is less than 550° C., the pressure in the plasma chamber is more than 5 Torr, and the ratio of the flow rates of a hydrogen gas and a silane-type gas is more than 50. In addition, one of the following operations is carried out during the deposition to change the relevant parameters between the start and end of the deposition. First, the distance between the plasma discharge electrodes is increased gradually or in steps. Second, the pressure of the reaction chamber is increased gradually or in steps. Third, the flow rate of the silane-type gas is increased gradually. Fourth, the plasma discharge power density is reduced gradually or in steps.
