Abstract
We measure the energy-dependent interface recombination parameters at the c-Si/Al 2O 3 interface using the frequency-dependent conductance technique. The hole capture cross section p (4±3)× 10 -16 cm 2 is energy-independent, whereas the electron capture cross section n shows a pronounced energy dependence and decreases from (7 ± 4)× 10 -15 cm 2 at midgap over two orders of magnitude toward the conduction band edge E c. The capture cross section ratio at midgap is highly asymmetric with σ n/σ p 5-70. The interface state density D it is of the order of 1× 10 11 eV -1 cm -2 at midgap. Besides the main defect, a second type of defect with a capture cross section below 10 -19 cm 2 is resolved near the valence band edge. Numerical calculations of the injection-dependent effective surface recombination velocity using the measured interface recombination parameters show an excellent agreement with experimental data measured using the photoconductance technique.
