The key feature of amorphous/crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cells is extremely low surface recombination,which is related to superior passivation on the crystalline silicon wafer surface using thin hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) layers,leading to a high open-circuit voltage.In this work,a two-step method of a-Si:H passivation is introduced,showing excellent interface passivation quality,and the highest effective minority carrier lifetime exceeds 4500μs.By applying a buffer layer deposited through pure silane plasma,the risk of film epitaxial growth and plasma damage caused by hydrogen diluted silane plasma is effectively reduced.Based on this,excellent passivation is realized through the following hydrogen diluted silane plasma process with the application of high,density hydrogen.In this process,hydrogen diffuses to a-Si/c-Si interface,saturating residual dangling bonds which are not passivated by the buffer layer.Employing this two-step method,a heterojunction solar cell with an area of 239cm2 is prepared,yielding to open-circuit voltage up to 735mV and total-area efficiency up to 22.4%.
