Problems solved by technology

However, when the thickness of naturally occurring SiOx is too thick, this oxide layer will form a charge barrier, which hinders the transport of charges and simultaneously reduces the short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, and fill factor of the solar cell, thereby reducing the efficiency of the cell.
Therefore, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of this type of solar cell is low, and the highest efficiency is only about 10%.
