Heterojunction solar cells with n-type nanocrystalline silicon emitters on p-type c-Si wafers

Hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si:H) n-layers have been used to prepare heterojunction solar cells on flat p-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafers. The nc-Si:H n-layers were deposited by radio-frequency (RF) plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), and characterized using Raman spectroscopy, optical transmittance and activation energy of dark-conductivity. The nc-Si:H n-layers obtained comprise fine grained nanocrystallites embedded in amorphous matrix, which have a wider bandgap and a smaller activation energy. Heterojunction solar cells incorporated with the nc-Si n-layer were fabricated using configuration of Ag (100 nm)/1T0 (80 nm)/n-nc-Si:H (15 nm)/buffer a-Si:H/p-c-Si (300 mu m)/Al (200 nm), where a very thin intrinsic a-Si:H buffer layer was used to passivate the p-c-Si surface, followed by a hydrogen plasma treatment prior to the deposition of the thin nanocrystalline layer. The results show that heterojunction solar cells subjected to these surface treatments exhibit a remarkable increase in the efficiency, up to 14.1% on an area of 2.43 cm(2). (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Neutron irradiation-infrared based measurement method for interstitial oxygen in heavily boron-doped silicon

A novel method, based on an infrared absorption and neutron irradiation technique, has been developed for the determination of interstitial oxygen in heavily boron-doped silicon. The new procedure utilizes fast neutron irradiated silicon wafer specimens. On fast neutron irradiation, the free carriers of high concentration in silicon can be trapped by the irradiated defects and the resistivity increased. The resulting calibration curve for the measurement of interstitial oxygen in boron-doped silicon has been established on the basis of the annealing behaviour of irradiated boron-doped CZ silicon.

Replacement of methane from quartz sand-bearing hydrate with carbon dioxide-in-water emulsion

The replacement of CH4 from its hydrate in quartz sand with 90:10, 70:30, and 50:50 (W-CO2:W-H2O) carbon dioxide-in-water (C/W) emulsions and liquid CO2 has been performed in a cell with size of empty set 36 x 200 mm. The above emulsions were formed in a new emulsifier, in which the temperature and pressure were 285.2 K and 30 MPa, respectively, and the emulsions were stable for 7-12 h. The results of replacing showed that 13.1-27.1%, 14.1-25.5%, and 14.6-24.3% of CH4 had been displaced from its hydrate with the above emulsions after 24-96 It of replacement, corresponding to about 1.5 times the CH4 replaced with high-pressure liquid CO2. The results also showed that the replacement rate of CH4 with the above emulsions and liquid CO2 decreased from 0.543, 0.587, 0.608, and 0.348 1/h to 0.083, 0.077, 0.069, and 0.063 1/h with the replacement time increased from 24 to 96 h. It has been indicated by this study that the use of CO2 emulsions is advantageous compared to the use of liquid CO2 in replacing CH4 from its hydrate.

富钇稀土-铝合金制取的研究Study on Preparation of Yttrium-Rich RE-Al Alloys

我国江西龙南稀土矿是目前世界上储量最大的富钇稀土矿、研制具有多种用途的钇（Y）-铝（Al）或富钇混合稀土（Ymm）-铝中间合金，对于开拓我国龙南稀土矿的应用领域扩大稀土合金出口具有重要意义。基于这一背景并针对目前氟化物体系制取Ymm-Al合金时存在着电解温度高，腐蚀现象严重，电效偏低等缺点，本文系统开展了在氯化物熔盐体系中电解制取Ymm-Al合金的研究工作。本工作由三部分组成：在第一部分工作中，开展了熔盐电解所需要基本原料-无水稀土氯化物制取的工艺研究。利用化学分析和结构分析手段，弄清了干法氯化过程中YmmCl_3水解的机理，提出了减弱水解的措施，即YmmCl_3先在850-900 ℃灼烧1.5 + 0.2hr，脱掉吸附水并将碱式碳酸盐转化为氧化物，增加稀土氧化物的比表面。通过条件试验得到最佳工艺条件为：采用NH_4 Cl:Ymm_2 O_3 = 14:1（摩尔比）的配料比，每次投入氯化装置的原料量为0.26 - 0.36 kg, 在400-450 ℃氯化反应激烈开始后迅速降温至400 ℃以下，待物料粘结现象消失后，再行升温氯化。出料及后期控制温在475 ± 25 ℃。经过3.8 ± 0.2hr氯化，可制得水不溶物小于1%并符合熔盐电解要求的YmmCl_3原料。此新工艺与原有干法工艺相比，流程短，装置简单，不需密闭抽真空，成本低，适于制取任何量的优质熔盐电解所需氯化稀土原料。在第二部分工作中，利用上述YmmCl_3原料，以液态铝为阴极，在氯化物体系中进行熔盐电解，通过试验得出在小型试验规模制取Ymm-Al合金的最隹工艺条件为：电解质组成（重量比）40%YmmCl_3-1%NaF-59%等摩尔的NaCl-KCl；电解温度为790 ± 5 ℃；阴极电流密为0.7 - 0.02A/cm~2；电解电量为333 ± 5库仑/克铝，制得钇铝合金中Ymm含量为10 ± 2%。添加1%的NaF可消除阴极表面生成枝状物，减少合金中夹渣和熔盐中沉渣。在电解工作中，将方差分析应用于试验数据处理，方差分析结果表明，各种试验因素对电效有明显影响，试验数据可靠，试验误差在允许范围以内。在第三部分工作中，利用线性扫描伏安法测定了在最隹电解工艺条件下Y~（3+）和Ymm在液态铝及钼电极上的析出电位。测定结果表明：Y~（3+）和Ymm~（3+）在液态铝阴极上的析出电位比在钼阴极上偏正0.2 ～ 0.8伏，氟离子的加入要比不加氟时析出电位不有同程度的负移，但考虑到氟离了具有消渣作用，加入少量氟比物添加剂对提高电效有利。

Diffusion of ion implanted as in Si1-xGex epilayers

Diffusion of implanted As ion in relaxed Si1-xGex was studied as a function of Ge content over a wide range of Ge fractions (0-43%) and annealing temperature, and was compared to diffusion in Si. Experimental results showed that the As diffusion is enhanced with increasing annealing temperature for certain Ge content and strongly dependent on the higher Ge content and the faster As diffusion.
