In this paper, we compare the properties of the gallium-doped Czochralski (Ga-Cz) silicon and the gallium-phosphorus co-doped Czochralski (GP-Cz) silicon. It shows that both majority and minority carrier mobility in Cz silicon are reduced due to the Ga and P compensation. However, the reduction of carrier mobility is not as severe as expected by Klaassen's model. The infrared absorption spectra for GP-Cz samples show that the Ga- and P-related bands significantly get broadened. It is suggested that a portion of P atoms are trapped by Ga atoms to form the Ga-P pairs, resulting in the reduction of carrier scattering centers. The solar cells based on GP-Cz silicon have comparable efficiencies with the Ga-Cz silicon solar cells, implying that the Ga and P compensation is not critical for its photovoltaic application.
Keywords:Solar cells; Czochralski silicon; dopant compensation; carrier mobility; efficiency
