Abstract
This work presents as-grown textured ZnO:Al films by rf magnetron sputtering initiated by pre-treatment of glass substrate with mixed argon and oxygen ions. A 650 nm thick of this film exhibits surface texture features with lateral size around 500 nm; the resistivity is below 5 × 10−4 Ω · cm and the transparency in the near-infrared spectral range is high (> 80% at 1000 nm). Microcrystalline silicon thin film solar cells grown on the textured glass exhibit excellent light trapping effect with a short circuit current density of 18.2 mA/cm².
