PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL

A photovoltaic cell comprises an electrode layer (1b) of a transparent, electrically conductive oxide which is deposited upon a transparent carrier substrate (7b). There follows a contact layer (11b) which is of first type doped amorphous silicon and has a thickness of at most 10 nm. There follows a...

Zusammenfassung:A photovoltaic cell comprises an electrode layer (1b) of a transparent, electrically conductive oxide which is deposited upon a transparent carrier substrate (7b). There follows a contact layer (11b) which is of first type doped amorphous silicon and has a thickness of at most 10 nm. There follows a layer (26) of first type doped amorphous silicon compound which has a bandgap which is larger than the bandgap of the material of the addressed contact layer (11b). Subsequently to the first type doped amorphous silicon compound layer (2b) there follows a layer of intrinsic type silicon compound (3b) and a layer of second type doped silicon compound (5b).
