[0002] Photovoltaic power generation is a system that uses solar cells to directly convert sunlight energy into electrical energy based on the principle of the photovoltaic effect. The basic structure of a solar cell is a large-area planar PN junction. When sunlight shines on the PN junction, the PN junction absorbs light energy to excite electrons and holes, and then generates voltage in the PN junction to achieve photoelectric conversion. Therefore, the core structure that realizes the conversion of sunlight energy and electrical energy in crystalline silicon cells is the PN junction.

[0003] At present, the mainstream solar cell structures include Topcon (tunnel oxide passivation contact), SHJ (heterojunction), and IBC (interdigitated back contact).
