“…Assuming that the defect level at the interface stays relatively constant, fewer holes at the interface result in a smaller recombination velocity and would be favorable for cell performance. [ 31 ] At a higher–than‐optimal Mg fraction, however, there are two effects. The one that follows from the progression in Figure 4b is that the conduction band offset will start to block the collection of photogenerated electrons, particularly at voltages approaching maximum power, which will primarily result in a smaller fill factor, as shown in Figure 2.…”

“…This is followed by low τ 2 and τ 3 as carriers continue to recombine via easier access to the interface. This effect was predicted in a theoretical study by Pandey et al which explored the effects of insufficient emitter doping when paired with highly doped absorbers at open-circuit voltage . It is possible that interpretation of τ 1 in the current study is more complicated, however, as TRPL measurements were performed without contacting or voltage bias.…”

“…Recent device modeling has demonstrated that, as bulk properties continue to improve, the front (i.e., emitter/absorber) and back interfaces become bottlenecks for performance. Because CdTe-based devices are typically grown in the superstrate configuration, the back interface is relatively accessible for manipulation and study, while the front interface is buried under microns of material and inaccessible.…”

“…Gallium is believed to be a promising dopant in magnesium zinc oxide (MZO) buffer layer. [5] With such complicated multilayer doped structure, it is necessary to detect PN junction electric field distribution as results of gallium doping in MZO buffer layer. This contribution will utilize 4D-scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM) to examine the atomic electric field as well as p/n-junction electric field distribution in CdSeTe-GMZO solar cell absorber.…”
