Abstract:The prediction of semiconductor device performance is a persistent challenge in materials science, and the ability to anticipate useful specifications prior to construction is crucial for enhancing the overall efficiency. In this study, we investigate the constituents of a solar cell by employing scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). Through our observations, we identify a spatial distribution of the dopant type in thin films of materials that were designed to present major p-doping for g… Show more
