How efficient is heterojunction back contact (HJ-IBC) solar cell?

Conversion efficiency of 26.6% achieved by heterojunction back contact (HJ-IBC) solar cell. This result was obtained using CZ silicon wafer. 0.3% absolute improvement in efficiency from the previous record is mainly driven by low series resistance.

Are interdigitated back contact (IBC) silicon heterojunction (Si-HJ) solar cells based on N-?

This study deals with the development and optimization of Interdigitated Back Contact (IBC) Silicon Heterojunction (Si-HJ) solar cells based on n-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) substrates. Both one-dimensional (1D) and 2D aspects of IBC Si-HJ cells are explored in this work.

Are HJ-IBC solar cells better than conventional solar cells?

It is shown that the defined reduction efficiency rate of an HJ-IBC silicon solar cell is lower than the reduction efficiency rate of conventional silicon solar, suggesting a better performance in the outdoor condition of the HJ-IBC solar cells.

What is pseudo FF of HJ-IBC solar cell?

As further development from 26.6%, pseudo FF of 86.6% is obtained from SunsV OC of the newly developed HJ-IBC cell. We have developed heterojunction interdigitated back contact solar cell with conversion efficiency of 26.6% (designated area: 180 cm 2) independently confirmed by Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energysystem Callab.

What is a silicon heterojunction (Si-HJ) solar cell?

Introduction Conventional IBC solar cells involve c-Si doped regions (homojunction technology) and reach experimentally more than 24% efficiency . An alternative approach for IBC devices fabrication has been proposed in 2007 by introducing the Silicon Heterojunction (Si-HJ) technology.

How is a HJ-IBC solar cell fabricated?

Architecture The 26.6% HJ-IBC solar cell was fabricated using n-type Czochralski crystalline Si (c-Si) 6 in. wafer with a size of 243 cm 2, a thickness of 200 µm (wafer thickness after cell fabrication), and a resistivity of ~ 7 Ω cm. The front wafer surface was textured by anisotropic etching in order to minimize the light reflection.
