In this article, the light-trapping effect of textured back surface reflectors in thin-film Si solar cells is investigated. A unique substrate with a periodic dimple pattern has been developed by utilizing anodic oxidation of Al as a self-ordering process. n-i-p hydrogenated microcrystalline Si (mu c-Si:H) cells fabricated on the Al substrate with a period of 0.9 mu m show an improved infrared response compared to those fabricated on randomly textured substrates. A high short circuit current density of 24.3 mA/cm(2) has been achieved in a 1-mu m-thick mu c-Si:H cell by adopting the patterned Al substrate. (C) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
