Reducing indium consumption in transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layers is crucial for mass production of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. In this contribution, optical simulation-assisted design and optimization of SHJ solar cells featuring MoOx hole coll ...

The fabrication process of interdigitated-back-contacted silicon heterojunction (IBC-SHJ) solar cells has been significantly simplified with the development of the so-called tunnel-IBC architecture. This architecture utilizes a highly conductive (p)-type nanocrystalline silico ...

Transition metal oxide (TMO) thin films exhibit large bandgap and hold great potential for enhancing the performance of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells by increasing the short-circuit current density significantly. On the other hand, achieving precise control over the ...

Passivating contacts are crucial for realizing high-performance crystalline silicon solar cells. Herein, contact formation by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) followed by an annealing step is focused on. Poly-SiOx passivating contacts by combining p ...

Silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells have achieved a record efficiency of 26.81% in a front/back-contacted (FBC) configuration. Moreover, thanks to their advantageous high VOC and good infrared response, SHJ solar cells can be further combined with wide bandgap ...

Effects of (i)a-Si

H deposition temperature on high-efficiency silicon heterojunction solar cells

Excellent surface passivation induced by (i)a-Si:H is critical to achieve high-efficiency silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. This is key for conventional single-junction cell applications but also for bottom cell application in tandem devices. In this study, we investig ...

Thin films of transition metal oxides such as molybdenum oxide (MoOx) are attractive for application in silicon heterojunction solar cells for their potential to yield large short-circuit current density. However, full control of electrical properties of thin MoO
