Objective
IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOLAR CELLS ON THE BASIS OF AMORPHOUS SILICON-HYDROGEN (A-SI:H) ONE OF THE PROBLEMS IS STILL DEGRADATION OF THE INTERFACE AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE CELL BETWEEN THE TRANSPARANT CONDUCTIVE OXIDE (TCO), USUALLY SNO2, ON GLASS AND THE FIRST, MOSTLY P-TYPE SILICON (CARBIDE) LAYER. THE DEGRADATION IS MAINLY DUE TO REDUCTION OF SNO FOLLOWED BY DIFFUSION OF SN INTO SI OCCURING DURING THE GLOW-DISCHARGE DEPOSITION OF A-SI:H FROM SIH4 (SILANE). THE PRESENT INVESTIGATIONS ARE MEANT TO OBTAIN PROFILE ANALYSES ON DIFFERENTLY PREPARED INTERFACES BY AID OF SEVERAL TECHNIQUES. THESE COMPRISE LOW-ENERGY-ION-SCATTERING (LEIS), ELECTRON SPECTROSCOPY FOR CHEMICAL ANALYSIS (ESCA) AND AUGER ELECTRON SPECTROSCOPY (AES). DIFFERENCES IN PREPARATION OF THE INTERFACE HAVE MAINLY REGARD TO CHANGES IN THE GLOW-DISCHARGE DEPOSITION PARAMETERS, SUCH AS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE SUBSTRATE AND TO APPLICATION OF THIN DIFFUSION BARRIERS.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
