This paper discusses developments in the mitigation of light-induced degradation caused by
boron-oxygen defects in boron-doped Czochralski grown silicon. Particular attention is paid …

Silicon-based solar cells and modules currently constitute the majority of photovoltaic
systems deployed globally with a market share exceeding 90%, stemming from the …

The understanding and development of advanced hydrogenation processes for silicon solar
cells are presented. Hydrogen passivation is incorporated into virtually all silicon solar cells …

This paper discusses the role hydrogen plays in degradation of silicon solar cells and
modules. Slightly unorthodox, it presents a high level view of the latest research findings and …

Abstract Polysilicon (poly-Si)-on-oxide passivating contact structures (POLO/TOPCon)
enable high-efficiency solar cells as they simultaneously provide a very high level of surface …

Light-and elevated-temperature-induced degradation (LeTID) in p-type multicrystalline
silicon has a severe impact on the effective minority carrier lifetime of silicon and remains a …

In this work, we integrate defect engineering methods of gettering and hydrogenation into
silicon heterojunction solar cells fabricated using low‐lifetime commercial‐grade p‐type …

In this article, we study the kinetics of firing-activated degradation and recovery of industrially
processed n+-doped poly-Si on thin oxide passivation layers subjected to illuminated …

Herein, large‐area defect‐engineered p‐type silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells using
standard 1.6 Ω cm commercial‐grade boron‐doped Czochralski (Cz) silicon wafers are …
