Researchers in China have investigated the impact of phosphorus diffusion gettering on industrial silicon heterojunction solar cell and have found that, with an optimized gas flow, higher efficiencies ...

Silicon heterojunction solar cells combine crystalline silicon substrates with thin amorphous silicon layers to harness the advantages of both materials. This approach yields superior passivation, ...

Korean researchers revealed that efficiency losses in heterojunction solar cells arise from two coexisting defect types – dangling bonds and weak silicon-silicon bonds. Their findings explain how ...

Just last month, a European group posted a record of 30.8%. Image: Fraunhofer ISE. Chinese solar manufacturer Risen Energy has produced what it called a “record” conversation efficiency on a ...

The cells used copper metallisation paste in place of silver. Image: Fraunhofer ISE. Scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) have developed a new heterojunction ...

Netherlands-based research lab TNO has succeeded in applying copper electrodes to silicon heterojunction solar cells using a new screen-printing process. With this innovation, TNO says, almost the ...
