Injection-dependent lateral resistance in front-junction solar cells with nc-Si:H and a-Si:H hole selective contact

Christophe Ballif, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Jean Cattin, Jan Haschke

We investigate the role of lateral transport of minority carriers in the wafer for front-junction solar cells. The study is based on two silicon heterojunction solar cells with p-type amorphous (a-Si), and nanocrystalline (nc-Si) silicon as hole selective ...

Impact of the Oxygen Flow during the Magnetron Sputtering Deposition on the Indium Tin Oxide thin films for Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cell

Christophe Ballif, Akshath Raghu Shetty, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Jean Cattin, Jan Haschke, Brahim Aissa

We report on the optoelectronic properties of ITO layers deposited by DC sputtering, using different oxygen to total flow ratios [r(O-2) = O-2/Ar, ranging from 1% to 8%], for silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cell application. The depth profiling of the v ...

Zr-doped indium oxide electrodes: Annealing and thickness effects on microstructure and carrier transport

Christophe Ballif, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Monica Morales Masis, Federica Landucci, Oscar Esteban Rucavado Leandro

Zr-doped indium oxide (In2O3:Zr) has been shown to satisfy the requirements of low resistance, wide band gap, and high infrared transmittance for application as a front contact in broadband solar cells. However, the reduction of indium usage in front of tr ...

Mitigating Plasmonic Absorption Losses at Rear Electrodes in High‐Efficiency Silicon Solar Cells Using Dopant‐Free Contact Stacks

Christophe Ballif, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Stefaan De Wolf, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Julie Amandine Dreon, Sihua Zhong, Fan Fu

Although charge‐carrier selectivity in conventional crystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells is usually realized by doping Si, the presence of dopants imposes inherent performance limitations due to parasitic absorption and carrier recombination. The develop ...

Annealing of Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells: Interplay of Solar Cell and Indium Tin Oxide Properties

Christophe Ballif, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Raphaël François Lemerle, Jan Haschke, Brahim Aissa

In this paper, we report the evolution of silicon heterojunction solar cell properties focusing, in particular, on the indium tin oxide (ITO) layers upon consecutive thermal annealing. We find that the charge carrier density

Reassessment of cell to module gains and losses: Accounting for the current boost specific to cells located on the edges

Christophe Ballif, Jacques Levrat, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Matthieu Despeisse, Olivier Denis Dupré

The power produced by a photovoltaic module is not simply the sum of the powers of its constituents cells. The difference stems from a number of so-called “cell-to-module” (CTM) gain or loss mechanisms. These are getting more and more attention as improvem ...

Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells on Quasi-mono Wafers

Christophe Ballif, Antoine Descoeudres, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Matthieu Despeisse, Loris Barraud, Raphaël Monnard, Jan Haschke, Brahim Aissa

We applied hydrogen passivation, gettering and a combination of both to quasi-mono (qm) wafer material to enhance its bulk lifetime and prepared silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. We find that while our applied hydrogen passivation alone seems not t ...
