abstract = {Reducing the optical losses and increasing the reflection
while maintaining the function of doped layers at the back
contact in solar cells are important issues for many
photovoltaic applications. One approach is to use doped
microcrystalline silicon oxide (μc-SiOx:H) with lower
optical absorption in the spectral range of interest
(300 nm to 1100 nm). To investigate the advantages, we
applied the μc-SiOx:H n-layers to a-Si:H single junction
solar cells. We report on the comparison between amorphous
silicon (a-Si:H) single junction solar cells with either
μc-SiOx:H n-layers or non-alloyed silicon n-layers. The
origin of the improved performance of a-Si:H single junction
solar cells with the μc-SiOx:H n-layer is identified by
distinguishing the contributions because of the increased
transparency and the reduced refractive index of the
μc-SiOx:H material. The solar cell parameters of a-Si:H
solar cells with both types of n-layers were compared in the
initial state and after 1000 h of light soaking in a
series of solar cells with various absorber layer
thicknesses. The measurement procedure for the determination
of the solar cell performance is described in detail, and
the measurement accuracy is evaluated and discussed. For an
a-Si:H single junction solar cell with a μc-SiOx:H n-layer,
a stabilized efficiency of $10.3\%$ after 1000 h light
soaking is demonstrated.},
