Silicon Passivation by Ultrathin Hafnium Oxide Layer for Photoelectrochemical Applications

Hafnium oxide (HfO2) films on silicon have the potential for application in photovoltaic devices. However, very little is known about the photoelectrochemical and protective properties of HfO2 films on Si. In this study, ultrathin films of HfO2 in the range of 15–70 nm were deposited on p-Si and Au...
