Abstract
ABSTRACTA prototype monolithic HgCdTe/CdTe superstrate tandem cell has been fabricated by RF sputtering, comprising a CdTe/CdS top cell, a ZnTe:N/ZnO:Al interconnect junction and a HgCdTe/CdS bottom cell. The Hg1−xCdxTe film as the bottom absorption layer was deposited by RF sputtering with 70% or 85% Cd content in the Hg1−xCdxTe magnetron target. Hg1−xCdxTe films with band gap from 0.98 eV to 1.45 eV were obtained by controlling the deposition temperature. CdCl2 thermal treatments were used to improve the Hg1−xCdxTe film electrical properties. A nitrogen-doped ZnTe film combined with an aluminium (Al) doped ZnO film formed a good interconnect junction. Results of Voc = 0.99 V and Jsc = 2.1 mA/cm2 were obtained in the best such tandem cell at one sun (AM1.5).
