Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015139975A1] The invention relates to a photoactive semiconductor component, especially a photovoltaic solar cell, having a semiconductor substrate (1), a carbon-containing SiC layer (3) disposed indirectly upon a surface of the semiconductor substrate, and a passivating intermediate layer (2) disposed indirectly or directly between the SiC layer and semiconductor substrate, and a metallic contact connection disposed indirectly or directly upon a side of the SiC layer facing away from the passivating intermediate layer and in electrically conductive connection with the SiC layer, where the SiC layer has p-type or n-type doping, which is characterized in that the SiC layer partly has a partly amorphous structure and partly has a crystalline structure.
