摘要
ZnTe/ZnTe:Cu complex layers deposited by vacuum co-evaporation have been in- troduced to CdS/CdTe solar cells. The C-V and I-V curves have been investigated and the effects of un-doped ZnTe layer thickness as well as annealing temperatures on I-V characteristics of CdTe solar cells have been studied. The results show that the “roll over” and “cross over” phenomena of dark and light I-V curves can be eliminated by use of ZnTe/ZnTe:Cu layer and the fill factor for a typical sample has increased to 73%, where there is no high resistance transparent layer. The reasons have been discussed combined with the energy band diagram of CdTe solar cells.
