Pulsed Laser Annealed Ga Hyperdoped Poly‐Si / SiO x Passivating Contacts for High‐Efficiency Monocrystalline Si Solar Cells

Polycrystalline Si ( poly ‐Si)‐based passivating contacts are promising candidates for high‐efficiency crystalline Si solar cells. We show that nanosecond‐scale pulsed laser melting (PLM) is an industrially viable technique to fabricate such contacts with precisely controlled dopant concentration profiles that exceed the solid solubility limit. We demonstrate that conventionally doped, hole‐selective poly ‐Si/SiO x contacts that provide poor surface passivation of c ‐Si can be replaced with Ga‐ or B‐doped contacts based on non‐equilibrium doping. We overcome the solid solubility limit for both dopants in poly ‐Si by rapid cooling and recrystallization over a timescale of ∼25 ns. We show an active Ga dopant concentration of ∼3 × 10 20 cm −3 in poly ‐Si which is six times higher than its solubility limit in c ‐Si, and a B dopant concentration as high as ∼10 21 cm −3 . We measure an implied open‐circuit voltage of 735 mV for Ga‐doped poly ‐Si/SiO x contacts on Czochralski Si with a low contact resistivity of 35.5 ± 2.4 mΩ cm 2 . Scanning spreading resistance microscopy and Kelvin probe force microscopy show large diffusion and drift current in the p ‐ n junction that contributes to the low contact resistivity. Our results suggest that PLM can be extended for hyperdoping of other semiconductors with low solubility atoms to enable high‐efficiency devices.

Single-step conversion of ethanol into n-butene-rich olefins over metal catalysts supported on ZrO 2 -SiO 2 mixed oxides

With airlines committed to drastically reduce their carbon footprint by 2050, producing jet fuel from renewable ethanol is of particular interest. Here we reported on an Ag/ZrO 2 /SBA-16 catalyst that is very effective for directly converting ethanol into to n-butene-rich olefins jet fuel precursors (i.e., 88% at full conversion). Here, we report on a Cu/ZrO 2 /SBA-16 catalyst that presents remarkable olefins selectivity (i.e., 89% at 96% conversion) and enhanced stability as compared to Ag/ZrO2/SBA-16 catalyst. Under severe operating conditions a conversion loss < 10% was observed with the Cu/ZrO 2 /SBA-16 catalyst as compared to a 50% loss of conversion with the Ag/ZrO 2 /SBA-16 catalyst. Combined experimental and computational tools revealed that replacing Ag with Cu shifts the reaction pathway of crotonaldehyde hydrogenation from 1,3-butadiene (i.e., coke precursor) production to butyraldehyde formation. Experiments conducted with 4%Cu/4%ZrO 2 supported on SBA-16, dealuminated zeolite Beta, and aluminum silicate revealed the performance and stability advantage of the SBA-16-supported catalyst.
