Therefore, we vary the boron concentration in the BSG layer and the oxygen concentration in the gaseous ambient of the high-temperature step. Characterization includes sheet resistance as well as electrochemical capacitance voltage measurements for the determination of the resulting boron doping profile. In addition, we perform quasi steady-state photoconductance measurements to investigate the influence of the oxygen concentration on the recombination parameters of the boron-diffused surface. Low recombination current densities J0 of J0 = 38 fA/cm 2 at a sheet resistance of 54 O/sq are observed. Finally, we show that the oxygen concentration is a crucial parameter to prevent the formation of a boron-rich layer at the silicon surface.enPhotovoltaikSilicium-PhotovoltaikDotierung und DiffusionOberflächen: KonditionierungPassivierungLichteinfangdiffusionsurface recombination velocitycurrent densityBRLpassivation621697journal article
