Passivated emitter and rear cells (PERC) are considered to be the next-generation silicon solar cell technology because of their significant efficiency gain originating from improved surface passivation and optical reflectivity. However, the complex fabrication process of PERC solar cells is a...

Rear-side passivated solar cells are one of the next-generation concepts for industrial mass production lines. Our production line has achieved greater than 19% for a commercial-grade with a homogeneous POCl3 emitter. In this study we investigated an industrial passivated emitter and rear cell...
