Contact resistance measurements for hydrogenated amorphous silicon solar cell structures

  • 1. RCA Laboratories, Princeton, New Jersey 08540

Description

A technique for measuring the electrical characteristics of contacts to doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) or other high-resistivity thin-film semiconductors is developed. Experimental results for metal and conductive transparent oxide contacts to both n- and p-type a-Si:H are presented and the significance of these values to solar cell applications discussed
