• Oxygen vacancies in tungsten oxide and their influence on tungsten oxide/silicon heterojunction solar cells (2016, background): “Multiple studies found that molybdenum oxide contacts on silicon degrade under annealing at 200◦C [8, 11] and atomic layer deposition of molybdenum oxide at higher temperature was also found to yield low quality contacts [17, 18].”
• Passivating Contacts for Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells: From Concepts and Materials to Prospects (2018, methodology): “These metal oxides have been used on the front side of a classical SHJ solar cell to replace the p -type a-Si:H layer [94], [97], [99], [101], [102], [104] or to improve the contact between the p -type a-Si:H layer and the TCO [102], [103], [105].”
• Industrially feasible, dopant‐free, carrier‐selective contacts for high‐efficiency silicon solar cells (2017, background): “For example, as hole selective contacts, molybdenum oxide (MoOx) [10], vanadium oxide (VOx) [11,12], and tungsten oxide (WOx) [12,13], all with high work function, and nickel oxide (NiOx) [14] and PEDOT:PSS [poly(3,4ethylene-dioxythiophene):polystyrenesulfonate] [15] with a small valence band offset”
