- 초록
- The roughness development of Ag film was investigated for potential as a back reflector material in thin film solar cells on flexible stainless steel (STS) substrates. The influence of metal underlayers was evaluated in order to obtain a rough Ag film at a low deposition temperature (?돞400 °C). By depositing Ag on a 100 nm Al underlayer to induce Ag-Al alloying, the film roughness was increased three times more than that of Ag films on bare STS at 400 °C. The Ag film deposited on an Al underlayer at 350 °C exhibited 75 nm roughness and uniformly distributed crystallites, which was effective for visible light scattering. The Ag-Al alloy phase was also controlled using the thickness ratio of Ag and Al. The present work clearly demonstrated that an Ag back reflector film with a higher roughness could be fabricated through inserting a metal underlayer at a deposition temperature much lower than the 500 °C that has been reported in earlier works. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
