Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of silicon solar cells, in particular to a germanium-doped crystalline silicon solar cell capable of inhibiting light attenuation and its preparation. Background technique [0002] Solar energy is inexhaustible and is an important renewable clean energy. Solar cells prepared by the photovoltaic effect directly convert light energy into electrical energy, which has a very attractive prospect. Since the 1990s, the photovoltaic industry has grown rapidly at a rate of 30-40% every year. Among them, crystalline silicon solar cells account for 80-90% of the market share, and will still occupy a dominant position for a long time in the future. At present, the cost of crystalline silicon solar cells is still high, which limits their large-scale application. Therefore, continuously improving the conversion efficiency of silicon solar cells and reducing costs have always been the goals of the industry and the research co...
