摘要
采用在CdTe薄膜太阳能电池结构Glass/FTO/CdS/CdTe基础上制备的Glass/FTO/CdS/CdTe/CdS体系,通过XRD,SEM,Raman,XPS研究了不同温度CdCl2空气热处理对CdS/CdTe界面互扩散、界面反应和重结晶过程的影响.研究表明,样品的表面形貌在不同温度热处理后有剧烈的差异,经300~350℃热处理后,CdS晶粒从室温时的20nm迅速增大至70nm左右,这与CdS从立方相到六方相的相变温度符合.CdS/CdTe界面在350℃左右就开始比较明显地互扩散,550℃时界面已生成具有六方纤锌矿结构的CdS0.85Te0.15.CdS因与CdTe的相互扩散并生成CdSxTe1-x而被迅速消耗.450℃以上CdS/CdTe界面部分被氧化生成CdTeO3.拉曼光谱中CdS的1LO峰在350℃左右由强变弱同时向低波数移动表明开始生成CdSxTe1-x.光电子能谱验证了CdSxTe1-x和CdTeO3在热处理过程中的形成.CdCl2防止了界面的氧化和促进了CdS/CdTe界面扩散以及CdSxTe1-x的生成.
A structure of Glass/FTO/CdS/CdTe/CdS based on the CdTe solar cell(Glass/FTO/CdS/ CdTe)was adopted to study the effect of CdCl2annealing treatment on the interdiffusion and the related reaction at the CdS/CdTe interface.Investigations show that surface morphology changs dramatically under different annealing treatment temperatures.The crystal size of CdS increases from 20nm to 70nm between 300~350℃.This temperature range is consistent with that of the CdS sphalerite to wurtzite phase transformation.CdS/CdTe interdiffusion happens at around 350℃,and CdS0.85 Te0.15 with hexagonal-wurtzite structure is detected at 550℃.The CdS is quickly consumed up through interdiffusion with CdTe and forming CdSxTe1-xalloy.CdTeO3begins to form at 450℃.Raman scattering shows that the intensity of CdS 1LO peak decreases from 350℃ and shifts to lower frequency,which reveals the formation of CdSxTe1-x.The XPS spectrum of samples confirms the formation of CdSxTe1-xand CdTeO3.CdCl2protects CdS/CdTe from oxidation and promotes interdiffusion at the interface and formation of CdSxTe1-xduring air annealing.
