The main silicon solar cell technologies can be grouped into six categories: (1) Al-BSF, (2) PERC, (3) tunnel oxide passivating contact/polysilicon on oxide (TOPCon/ POLO) where TOPCon is the name most adopted for the technology, (4) SHJ, (5) interdigitated back contact (IBC), which includes metal-wrap-through designs, and (6) tandem solar ...
The latest iteration of this technology, which currently dominates the c-Si PV industry, is known as the passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC). Unfortunately, heavy doping also comes with fundamental limitations like Auger recombination and band-gap narrowing. A common strategy to address these losses is to apply heavy doping in the regions immediately …
