Resum

Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers are used to modify the interface of metal-semiconductor junctions. The large number of protonated amines contributes to the formation of a dipole layer, which finally serves to form electron selective contacts in silicon heterojunction solar cells. By modifying the work function of the contacts, the addition of the PAMAM dendrimer interlayer quenches Fermi level pinning, thus creating an ohmic contact between the metal and the semiconductor. This is supported by the observation of a low contact resistivity of 4.5 mΩ cm2, the shift in work function, and the n-type behavior of PAMAM dendrimer films on the surface of crystalline silicon. A silicon heterojunction solar cell containing the PAMAM dendrimer interlayer is presented, which achieved a power conversion efficiency of 14.5%, an increase of 8.3% over the reference device without the dipole interlayer.
