Plating on TOPCon as a Way to Reduce the Fabrication Costs of i-TOPCon Solar Cells

, 2020
S.179-183i-TOPCon solar cells commonly make use of a TOPCon/SiNx stack at the rear side. For screen-printed contacts, a certain TOPCon layer thickness in the range of 110 to 150 nm is usually required to prevent spiking of the contacts.
