摘要
Abstract It is widely accepted that an effective carrier-selective contact is indispensable for high performance crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells. However, the properties of these carrier-selective contact materials significantly differ from c-Si in terms of band gap, work function, lattice constant. Consequently, this gives rise to challenges such as band discontinuity and suspended bonds at the interface, which subsequently impact the specific carrier transport process and potentially lead to a reduction primarily in the fill factor at the device level. Titanium nitride (TiN) and titanium oxynitride (TiO x N y ) have been employed as an electron-selective contact in both c-Si and perovskite solar cells, demonstrating their effectiveness in enhancing the performance of these devices. Based on the detailed characterizations of the band alignment, the carrier transport mechanisms are analyzed using multiple models, and the theoretical results are basically self-consistent through the verification of variable temperature experiments. These analytical methods can also provide solutions for analyzing the band structure and transport mechanism of diverse heterojunctions, ultimately contributing to the design and optimization of semiconductor heterojunction devices.
