Abstract

Abstract A new CPM (Constant Photocurrent Method) system, which improves the accuracy of measurement by suppressing the effect of optical interference, has been developed. This system enables determination of the defect density (Nd) and the slope of the Urbach tail (Ech) of a-Si:H films for solar cells with improved accuracy. The system has shown that Nd and Ech are minimized when Eopt = 1.55–1.61 eV. Here, Eopt is the optical gap determined from ( αhv 1 3 versus hv plots. The conversion efficiency of a-Si:H solar cells can be optimized by using the i-layer in this range of Eopt.
