Technical FAQs 4

What are crystalline silicon solar cells?

Crystalline silicon solar cells are today’s main photovoltaic technology, enabling the production of electricity with minimal carbon emissions and at an unprecedented low cost. This Review discusses the recent evolution of this technology, the present status of research and industrial development, and the near-future perspectives.

How efficient are monocrystalline solar cells?

Monocrystalline solar cells reached efficiencies of 20% in the laboratory in 1985 (ref. 238) and of 26.2% under 100× concentration in 1988 (ref. 239). In this period, the efficiency of industrial solar cells slowly grew from 12% to 14.5%.

What is a monocrystalline silicon ingot?

Monocrystalline silicon ingots are the foundation of high-efficiency solar cells, with purity levels exceeding 99.9999% (6N)to minimize defects. The Czochralski (CZ) method dominates production, accounting for 85% of global monocrystalline silicon supply, due to its balance of cost (~$15-20/kg) and quality.

What is the conversion efficiency of crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cells?

Masuko, K. et al. Achievement of more than 25% conversion efficiency with crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cell. IEEE J. Photovolt. 4, 1433–1435 (2014). Boccard, M. & Holman, Z. C. Amorphous silicon carbide passivating layers for crystalline-silicon-based heterojunction solar cells. J. Appl. Phys. 118, 065704 (2015).
