    摘要: A precursor film having a required gallium component proportion is formed easily at low cost. A precursor film for use in forming the light absorption layer of a CIS type thin-film solar cell, etc., or a method for forming the film are provided. A Cu—Ga layer having a high gallium component proportion (Ga/(Ga+Cu)) of X % by weight Ga is formed as a first layer by sputtering using a precursor film comprising a Cu—Ga alloy layer having the gallium component proportion of X % by weight Ga as a target (deposition step A). Thereafter, a copper layer is formed as a second layer on the first layer by sputtering using a copper layer as a target (deposition step B) to thereby form a precursor film having the required gallium component proportion of Y % (X>Y) by weight Ga as the sum of the first layer and second layer. A method of film formation by simultaneous vapor deposition is also possible.

    摘要: The triethylaluminum contained as an impurity in low-purity raw-material diethylzinc, which is inexpensive, is utilized as an additive to reduce the cost of film formation. Diethylzinc having a low purity (99.99-98% or 99.99-90%) is used as a raw material to produce a ZnO transparent conductive film by the MOCVD (metal-organic chemical vapor deposition) method. Water vapor (H2O) is used as an oxidizing agent and the triethylaluminum contained as an impurity in the raw material is utilized as an additive (diborane is further added as an additive) to cause the diethylzinc, the water vapor (H2O), and the triethylaluminum (and the diborane) to undergo a vapor-phase reaction to produce a ZnO transparent conductive film.

    摘要: This invention provides a CIS-based thin film solar battery and a process for producing the same in which the formation of an alkali barrier layer and a metal backside electrode layer is carried out at a low cost in a short time to prevent such an unfavorable phenomenon that a light absorbing layer is separated from the interface of the light absorbing layer and the metal backside electrode layer. The CIS-based thin film solar battery (1) comprises a glass substrate (2), an alkali-free layer (7) such as silica, a metal backside electrode layer (3) having a laminate structure, a p-type CIS-based light absorbing layer (4), a high-resistance buffer layer (5), and an n-type window layer (6) stacked in that order. The layer (7), either alone or together with a first layer (3a) in the layer (3), can function as an alkali barrier layer (8) that can prevent and control the thermal diffusion of an alkali component into the light absorbing layer during the formation of the layer (4) from the substrate (2). In the layer (3a), crystal grains are fine and has high density. After the formation of the layer (7) on the substrate by RF or DC sputtering, the layer (3) is continuously formed on the layer (7) by DC sputtering.
