Crystalline silicon (c-Si) photovoltaics has long been considered energy intensive and
costly. Over the past decades, spectacular improvements along the manufacturing chain …

With a global market share of about 90%, crystalline silicon is by far the most important
photovoltaic technology today. This article reviews the dynamic field of crystalline silicon …

Although several advances have been made in the characterization and the mitigation of
light-induced degradation (LID), industrial silicon solar cells still suffer from different types of …

Perovskite/silicon tandems have smashed through the 30% efficiency barrier, which
represents a promising step towards high efficiency solar modules. However, the processing …

As an initial investigation into the current and potential economics of one of today's most
widely deployed photovoltaic technologies, we have engaged in a detailed analysis of …

While progress has been made in understanding the behaviour of the recently identified
carrier-induced degradation mechanism in p-type multicrystalline silicon solar cells, little is …

This paper gives an overview on the current understanding of a technologically relevant
defect group in crystalline silicon related to the presence of boron and oxygen. It is …

Our unique, high‐efficiency c‐Si solar cell, named the HIT cell, has shown considerable
potential to improve junction properties and surface passivation since it was first developed …

Within this work, both the performance and reliability of industrial p-type monocrystalline
solar cells with dielectrically passivated rear side and corresponding modules are …

In this work, we demonstrate a form of minority carrier degradation on n-type Cz silicon that
affects both the bulk and surface related lifetimes. We identify three key behaviors of the …
