Objective
The use of renewable energies, and in particular PV, is one of the most attractive solutions to overcome the problems caused by conventional energy sources. Whilst much achievements have been made over the last couple of decades to reduce the costs of PV cells, their costs are presently still the main obstacle for a world-wide increased utilisation of electric power provided by this clean and renewable technology. Therefore, the need for innovative, competitive manufacturing concepts is compelling. The project proposed here aims to prepare the back end of an c-Si solar cell by applying self-formation for producing single-sided solar cells. In this technology, the + and - conductors are both at the front end, and two-sided processes simply can copy the process to the back- end, which is far simpler than the manufacturing process of the current two-sided solar cells.
