Can a silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cell be interconnected by ribbon soldering?

ABSTRACT: Interconnecting silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells by low-temperature ribbon soldering allows the use of standard stringing equipment and might therefore be the cheapest and most straightforward implementation in existing fabrication lines.

Do heterojunction solar cells interconnect by soldering?

2.1 Heterojunction solar cells To study the interconnection process on SHJ solar cells by soldering, we use bifacial monocrystalline SHJ cells (156.75 × 156.75 mm2) of our project partner Meyer Burger (Germany) GmbH. The cells are pre-processed on

Does infrared soldering affect interconnection of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells?

ABSTRACT: Interconnection of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells by soldering is challenging due to the temperature sensitivity of the passivation layers. Within our study, we evaluate solder joints on SHJ solar cells interconnected by infrared (IR) soldering.

Is low-temperature soldering suitable for SHJ solar cells?

Since the passivation by the amorphous silicon layers of SHJ cells cannot withstand temperatures above 250 °C [7, 8], low-temperature soldering is considered as a suitable technology. The main challenge is to overcome the known weak adhesion between metallization paste and wafer surface, observed after soldering on SHJ solar cells .

Do solder joints affect low-temperature metallization on SHJ solar cells?

However, solder joints on low-temperature metallization pastes of SHJ cells are known for a weak adhesion to the cell surface. This work is dedicated to a better understanding of the interaction between solder and low-temperature metallization on SHJ solar cells.

Can high-efficiency solar cells be metallized and interconnected?

In this work, we present results on various low-temperature approaches for the metallization and interconnection of high-efficiency solar cells as silicon heterojunction (SHJ) or perovskite silicon tandems.
