Advanced doped‐silicon‐layer‐based passivating contacts have boosted the power
conversion efficiency (PCE) of single‐junction crystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells to over …

The basics of dopant-free materials used as carrier-selective layers at the surfaces and
interfaces in c-Si or poly-Si solar cells have been reviewed. Emphasis has been given to the …

p-type Cu2O thin films doped with trivalent cation boron are demonstrated for the first time as
an efficient hole-selective layer for c-Si heterojunction solar cells. Cu2O and Cu2O: B films …

The effect of low growth rate deposition (LGD) of BaSi 2 on the film quality and performance
of silicon heterojunction solar cells was investigated. The total thickness of the BaSi 2 layer …

Heterojunction solar cell based on nickel oxide (NiO x) as hole selective layer and n-type
silicon as an active absorption layer is a promising high-efficiency solar cell. Unfortunately …

In this paper, a record-breaking efficiency of 12.3% is experimentally demonstrated for a
flexible free-standing, 2.7-μm-thick ultrathin crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell, which is the …

Carrier selective solar cell has become one of the hot spots in the area of Si solar cell. The
proposed architecture FTO/TiO 2/c-Si/ia-Si: H/Cu 2 O/back contact studied through …

In this article, a novel hot wire oxidation–sublimation deposition (HWOSD) technique, as an
optional technology, is developed to prepare molybdenum oxide (MoOx) thin films. Silicon …

Dopant-free carrier-selective contacts are becoming increasingly attractive for application in
silicon solar cells because of the depositions for their fabrication being simpler and …
