Abstract
We present a semi-analytical model for the calculation of the current through and the recombination in carrier-selective junctions consisting of a poly-Si/SiOx/c-Si layer stack. We calculate the recombination parameter J0 and the contact resistance ρC after solving the band-bending-problem on both sides of the interfacial oxide. Comparisons with finite-element simulations show that the current calculation is reliable at all bias conditions except for inversion and that current through pinholes is resolved adequately in the model. The model allows a coherent description of lifetime-, current-voltage- and capacitance-voltage measurements performed on a sample with dominant tunneling. We use our model to investigate the influence of oxide thickness and pinhole density on J0 and ρC of our state-of-the-art poly-silicon-on-oxide (POLO) junctions and demonstrate its usefulness for the optimization of poly-Si based junctions.
