Technical FAQs 4

What is the device structure of a silicon solar cell?

The device structure of a silicon solar cell is based on the concept of a p-n junction, for which dopant atoms such as phosphorus and boron are introduced into intrinsic silicon for preparing n- or p-type silicon, respectively. A simplified schematic cross-section of a commercial mono-crystalline silicon solar cell is shown in Fig. 2.
