In case of direct growth on Si wafers, a high quality hetero interface for the passivation of the silicon bottom cell should be achieved and the degradation of the Si minority carrier bulk lifetime has to be avoided. In this paper we show that diffusion barriers can reduce the contamination of the Si absorber and lead to minority carrier lifetimes of 1120 ms after thermal treatment at 1050 °C in the metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy reactor. With an adapted growth and solar cell process we could fabricate Si solar cells with an open circuit voltage of 634 mV.enMaterialien - Solarzellen und TechnologiePhotovoltaikSilicium-PhotovoltaikNeuartige Photovoltaik-TechnologienCharakterisierung von Prozess- und Silicium-MaterialienDotierung und DiffusionHerstellung und Analyse von hocheffizienten Solarzellenconference paper
