A new three-dimensional copper dithiocarbamate-copper iodide coordination polymer [Cu(Me2dtc)2(CuI)3]n (Me2dtc=N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamate) was synthesized by reactions of Cu(OAc)2,NaI and Na(Me2dtc) in DMF solution,characterized by elemental analysis,IR spectrum,and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system,space group C2/c with a=1.293 89(17) nm,b=1.077 61(11) nm,c=1.456 05(17) nm,β=115.585 (4)°,V=1.831 1 (4) nm3,Z=4,Dc=3.175 g·cm-3,Mr=875.28,λ (Mo Kα)=0.071 073 nm,μ=10.082 mm-1,F(000)=1 604,the final R=0.029 5 and wR=0.081 7. A total of 2 083 unique reflections were collected,of which 1 918 with I>2σ(I) were observed. The Cu atoms are Cu(Ⅰ)/Cu(Ⅱ) mixed-valence and they have two different coordinate geometries,namely planar square and tetrahedron. This three-dimensional structure consists of individual Cu(Me2dtc)2 molecules linking together CuI polymeric chains which run parallel to the [001] direction vis Cu-S bonds.
The effect of oxygen precipitates on minority carrier lifetime and performance of solar cell was studied by means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), quasi-steady state photoconductance (QSSPCD), optical microscope, spectrum response and solar cell efficiency test. The minority carrier lifetime and performance of solar cell reduced depend on oxygen precipitates. A few of oxygen precipitates have formed after single-step annealing; and they do not impact the efficiency dramatically. Pre-annealing at 650 ℃ for 4 h enhances the oxygen precipitation when it is subjected to middle temperature annealing. The solar cells performance decayed sharply. Especially annealing at 950 ℃ for 3 h, the Vos and Isc of cells decrease 12% and 25% respectively. Few oxygen precipitates have formed in silicon after high temperature annealing at about 1050 ℃ whether pre-annealing is used or not, and the performance of cells is not be affected.
