AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The performance of existing photovoltaic cells is limited by defects in the bulk region and near the surface of the silicon wafer, especially by metallic impurities and complex oxide phases, which restricts performance improvement.

Method used

The back-contact solar cell design employs highly doped first and second mixed doped layers on the front surface and spacer region of a silicon substrate. The doping elements include Group III and Group V elements and oxygen, forming a high-concentration doped layer to reduce surface defects and improve bulk mass.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces surface defects in silicon substrates, improves the performance of back-contact solar cells, enhances the gettering effect and surface passivation capability of the cells, and strengthens the passivation effect of bulk defects.

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a back contact cell and a photovoltaic system. Doping elements in a first mixed doped layer and a second mixed doped layer comprise at least one third main group element, at least one fifth main group element, and an oxygen element. Doping concentrations of the doping elements in the first mixed doped layer and the second mixed doped layer are both greater than doping concentrations of corresponding doping elements in a silicon substrate.
