Abstract

This article presents an investigation into the structural, optical, and electrical properties of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) films that were deposited utilizing various plasma powers. The transmittance values in the visible region were measured, revealing that the ITO film deposited at 2050 W exhibited the highest transmittance (81%). Additionally, the sheet resistance values of all films were analyzed, indicating that the ITO film deposited at 2050 W had the lowest sheet resistance (64.9 Ω/sq). By means of XRD analysis, the structural properties of the films were meticulously scrutinized, and the distinctive diffraction peaks associated with the ITO films were successfully identified. Notably, the ITO film deposited at 2050 W demonstrated superior performance compared to the other films deposited using various plasma powers. Finally, we report a noteworthy efficiency of 17.03% achieved in the SHJ solar cell fabricated with the ITO film deposited at 2050 W on a 5x5 cm2 n-type Si substrate.
