The basic principle of solar cell power generation is photovoltaic effect, and solar cell is a new energy device for converting solar light into electric energy. The bifacial solar cell in the solar cell utilizes the front and back light receiving surfaces to obtain higher photocurrent density and greatly improve the power generation power. Bifacial solar cells are mainly divided into N type and P type. At present, N type bifacial solar cells have replaced P type bifacial solar cells and become the mainstream product in the solar cell industry.

[0004] In order to optimize the electrical performance of the N type bifacial solar cell, the contact resistance between the electrode and the conductive layer in the electrode area needs to be as low as possible, and the passivation effect in the non-electrode area needs to be as high as possible. The former requires that the average size of the textured structure / tower base platform in the electrode area be reduced to provide more metal electrode contact points, and the latter requires that the average size of the textured structure / tower base platform be increased. However, some existing solar bifacial cells, such as the above-mentioned patent, have the same average size of the textured structure / tower base platform in the electrode area and the non-electrode area, which cannot simultaneously optimize the contact resistance between the electrode / conductive layer and the passivation effect in the non-electrode area, so that the electrical performance of the bifacial cell is limited.
