In this work, we report on the results of using a Diamond-Like Carbon / Porous Silicon (DLC/PS) double layer as antireflection coating to enhance the performance of multicrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells. DLC layers were obtained by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) method. The properties of these layers were investigated in order to establish the optimum preparation conditions for solar cell applications. Then, thin films of combined porous silicon-DLC structure were fabricated for antireflection coating use. The spectral response of a solar cell based on multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) coated with a PS layer, formed by electrochemical process was enhanced compared to a cell without porous silicon layer as emitter. Further improvements are obtained by a deposition of a thin DLC film. The results of the solar cell parameters before and after porous silicon formation and DLC coating are discussed.

AbstractThe morphology and chemical bods of p-type and n-type porous Si was compared. The surface of n-type sample is smooth, homogenous without any features. The surface of p-type sample reveals micrometer-sized islands. FTIR investigation reveals various distribution of SiOxHycomplexes in both p-and n-type samples. From the conditions leading to porous silicon layer formation (the presence of holes) we suggest both SiOxHyand SiFxHycomplexes in the layer.

Based on the evanescent wave resonance, a photonic crystal sensing structure with air slot-porous silicon-air slot Fabry–Perot cavity (F–P cavity) is proposed. Taking the F–P cavity as the sensing unit, when the gas to be detected is filled into the sensing unit, the refractive index of the air slot will be changed and the refractive index of the porous silicon layer will also be varied, both of which will shift the resonant peak and greatly increase the sensitivity of the sensor. By adjusting the structural parameters, the quality factor (Q value) can be optimized. A model for the relationship between the resonant wavelength and the refractive index of the detected organic gas was established, and the refractive index sensing performance was analyzed. The results show that the Q value of the structure can attain to 12312.2 and the sensitivity is about 8661.708 nm/RIU, which can provide effective theoretical reference and technical guidance for organic gas detection with low concentration.
