  • Patent number: 9887313
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid-phase method for doping a semiconductor substrate, characterized in that a first composition containing at least one first dopant is applied to one or more regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate, in order to create one or more region(s) of the surface of the semiconductor substrate coated with the first composition; a second composition containing at least one second dopant is applied to one or more regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate, in order to create one or more region(s) of the surface of the semiconductor substrate coated with the second composition, where the one or more region(s) coated with the first composition and the one or more region(s) coated with the second composition are different and do not overlap significantly and where the first dopant is an n-type dopant and the second dopant is a p-type dopant or vice versa; the regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate coated with the first composition and with the

  • Publication number: 20170365733
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing highly doped polycrystalline semiconductor layers on a semiconductor substrate, wherein a first Si precursor composition comprising at least one first dopant is applied to one or more regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate; optionally a second Si precursor composition comprising at least one second dopant is applied to one or more other regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate, where the first dopant is an n-type dopant and the second dopant is a p-type dopant or vice versa; and the coated regions of the surface of the semiconductor substrate are each converted, so as to form polycrystalline silicon from the Si precursor. The invention further relates to the semiconductor obtainable by the method and to the use thereof, especially in the production of solar cells.

  • Patent number: 9362112
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing p-doped silicon layers, especially those silicon layers which are produced from liquid silane-containing formulations. The invention further relates to a substrate coated with a p-doped silicon layer. The invention additionally relates to the use of particular dopants based on boron compounds for p-doping of a silicon layer.
