Spectroscopic ellipsometry has been applied to a wide variety of
material and device characterizations in solar cell research
fields. In particular, device performance analyses using exact
optical constants of component layers and direct analyses of
complex solar cell structures are unique features of advanced
ellipsometry methods. This second volume of Spectroscopic
Ellipsometry for Photovoltaics presents various applications of the
ellipsometry technique for device analyses, including
optical/recombination loss analyses, real-time control and on-line
monitoring of solar cell structures, and large-area structural
mapping. Furthermore, this book describes the optical constants of
148 solar cell component layers, covering a broad range of
materials from semiconductor light absorbers (inorganic, organic
and hybrid perovskite semiconductors) to transparent conductive
oxides and metals. The tabulated and completely parameterized
optical constants described in this book are the most current
resource that is vital for device simulations and solar cell
structural analyses.
This book provides a basic understanding of spectroscopic
ellipsometry, with a focus on characterization methods of a broad
range of solar cell materials/devices, from traditional solar cell
materials (Si, CuInGaSe2, and CdTe) to more advanced emerging
materials (Cu2ZnSnSe4, organics, and hybrid perovskites),
fulfilling a critical need in the photovoltaic community. The book
describes optical constants of a variety of semiconductor light
absorbers, transparent conductive oxides and metals that are vital
for the interpretation of solar cell characteristics and device
simulations. It is divided into four parts: fundamental principles
of ellipsometry; characterization of solar cell
materials/structures; ellipsometry applications including optical
simulations of solar cell devices and online monitoring of film
processing; and the optical constants of solar cell component
layers.
Applications requiring large-area semiconductor coverage rely
increasingly on amorphous and heterogeneous silicon materials
because they can be deposited at low cost on a variety of
substrates. This volume, first published in 1999, covers the range
from fundamental research to the device applications of these
materials. A special session on medium-range order is featured, and
confirms the belief that ordering correlates with the electronic
quality of a-Si: H films. Important experimental observations on
metastable effects in a-Si: H are also reported, as are devices and
processing strategies. Topics include: growth and properties;
high-rate deposition; recrystallization, amorphization and porous
silicon; ordering and hydrogen; metastability; defects, band tails
and transport; heterogeneous materials and devices; thin-film
transistors and displays; solar cells; and detectors, imagers and
other device
