| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed two kinds of surface passivation technologies for crystalline silicon: ① a combination of oxygen radical treatment at room temperature with 260℃、1.3MPa H2O vapor heat treatment for 3 h and ② heat treatment in liquid water at 110℃ for 1h. Those treatment form 1 nm thick oxide layers at the silicon surfaces and reduce the density of surface recombination defects resulting in increasing the effective minority carrier lifetime. Especially the heat treatment in liquid water at 110℃ for 1h achieved the effective minority carrier lifetime as high as that of thermally grown oxide layer coating the silicon surfaces. MIS diodes were fabricated with those passivation technologies and Au and Al metals. Good diode characteristics were observed. Solar cell characteristics with efficiencies of 8-9% were also obtained.
