The Physical mechanisms of gettering properties of nickel clusters in silicon solar cells
Physical Sciences and TechnologyThis study demonstrates that the concentration of nickel atoms near the surface of solar cells is 2–3 orders of magnitude higher than in the bulk material, significantly enhancing the gettering rate at the surface. Using IR-microscopy, SEM, and SIMS, we
