Because of high efficiencies and low-cost fabrication, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have
drawn great attention. Although an impressive power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 26 …

With a global market share of about 90%, crystalline silicon is by far the most important
photovoltaic technology today. This article reviews the dynamic field of crystalline silicon …

Silicon heterojunction solar cells consist of thin amorphous silicon layers deposited on
crystalline silicon wafers. This design enables energy conversion efficiencies above 20% at …

The reduction in electronic recombination losses by the passivation of silicon surfaces is a
critical enabler for high-efficiency solar cells. In 2006, aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3) nanolayers …

We review the recent progress of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. Recently, a new

Here we report a certified efficiency of up to 25.11% for silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar
cells on a full size n-type M2 monocrystalline-silicon (c-Si) wafer (total area, 244.5 cm 2). An …

Silicon heterojunction solar cells have high open-circuit voltages thanks to excellent
passivation of the wafer surfaces by thin intrinsic amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) layers …

Damage of the hydrogenated amorphous/crystalline silicon interface passivation during
transparent conductive oxide sputtering is reported. This occurs in the fabrication process of …

Silicon nanowire arrays (SiNWs) on a planar silicon wafer can be fabricated by a simple
metal-assisted wet chemical etching method. They can offer an excellent light harvesting …

Using aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3) films deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD), the
dominant passivation mechanisms at the c-Si/Al 2 O 3 interface, as well as the chemical …
