The nanocrystalline silicon-germanium (nc-SiGe) thin films were deposited by high-frequency (27.12 MHz) plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (HF-PECVD).The films were used in Coconut Oil a silicon-based thin film solar cell with graded-dead absorption layer.The characterization of the nc-SiGe films are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared absorption spectroscopy.The band gap of SiGe Shooting Seat Stick alloy can be adjusted between 0.

8 and 1.7 eV by varying the gas ratio.For thin film solar cell application, using double graded-dead i-SiGe layers mainly leads to an increase in short-circuit current and therefore cell conversion efficiency.An initial conversion efficiency of 5.06% and the stabilized efficiency of 4.

63% for an nc-SiGe solar cell were achieved.
