The photovoltaic sector is now led by silicon solar cells because of their well-established technology and relatively high efficiency. Currently, industrially made silicon solar modules have an efficiency between 16% and 22% (Anon (2023b)).
In order to further improve the quality of high efficiency multicrystalline silicon and the performance of multicrystalline silicon solar cells, we designed a compact nucleation layer on the crucible bottom for casting high performance multicrystalline silicon ingots.
Additionally, it evaluates efficiency improvement techniques such as light management and spectral utilization. While the efficiency of Si-based solar cells has plateaued around 25%, the efficiency of III–V compound semiconductor-based multi-junction solar cells is increasing.
Silicon solar cells have a limited ability to capture low-energy photons, which limits their efficiency, especially in low-light conditions. Moreover, the practical limits in obtaining maximum efficiency are restricted by many factors including different types of recombinations and losses (Shah et al., 2004).
Furthermore, Multiple researchers have conducted reviews on diverse cooling technologies that enhance the performance of solar cells. For instance, a review paper by Ghadikolaei provides an overview of various cooling technologies and their impact on the performance of commercially available photovoltaic (PV) cells (Anon (2002)).
To overcome these problems, many techniques have been investigated. This paper presents an overview of high-efficiency silicon solar cells' typical technologies, including surface passivation, anti-reflection coating, surface texturing, multi-junction solar cell, and interdigitated back contact solar cell.
