| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied strontium silicate (SrxSiOx+2, x = 1, 2, 3) films as field effect passivation layer for c-Si solar cells from the viewpoint of effective net charge density (Qeff). The Qeff values of the SrxSiOx+2/Si (100) samples were obtained from the shift in voltage of the flat band state in their capacitance - voltage curves. The Sr2SiO4/Si (100) (x=2) samples with a thickness of 15 nm annealed at 400 °C showed the maximum Qeff value of 1.03×10^13 Ccm^-2, which is enough positive charge to work as the field effect passivation layer. With increasing annealing temperature, the SrxSiOx+2 layer penetrated into the Si (100) substrate. This penetration may degrade the interfacial properties and decrease the Qeff value of the layers. For all the samples, the charges concentrated near the Sr2SiO4/Si (100) interface. It suggests that anion and cation migration play important roles in charge generation at the SrxSiOx+2/Si (100) interface.
