In 2006, around 86% of all wafer-based silicon solar cells were produced using screen printing to form the silver front and aluminium rear contacts and chemical vapour deposition to grow silicon nitride as the antireflection coating onto the front surface. This paper reviews this dominant solar cell technology looking into state-of-the-art equipment and corresponding processes for each process step. The main efficiency losses of this type of solar cell are analyzed to demonstrate the future efficiency potential of this technology. In research and development, more various advanced solar cell concepts have demonstrated higher efficiencies. The question which arises is “why are new solar cell concepts not transferred into industrial production more frequently?”. We look into the requirements a new solar cell technology has to fulfill to have an advantage over the current approach. Finally, we give an overview of high-efficiency concepts which have already been transferred into industrial production.

Solar Cell Technology

This article aims to analyze students' understanding of the purpose of solar cell technology. Because the role of students is very important in developing one of the renewable energies that is solar cells. There are still many people who have not seen other benefits from the sun, as well as ways to use solar energy for other processes, such as the use of solar cells in households and so on. Most of humans have not seen other ways and benefits of solar energy. So that to socialize the use of solar cell technology, students need to understand how important solar energy is as a renewable energy and how to use it. The method used in this study used quantitative descriptive, with the sample of 2019 class of physics education students.Keywords: Solar cell, Environment, Renewable.

Solar Cell Technology

The wide substitution of conventional types of energy by solar energy lies in the rate of developing solar cell technology. Silicon is still the mostly used element for solar cell production, so efforts are directed to the improvement of physical properties of silicon structures. There are several trends in the development of solar cells, but mainly two directions are indicated: the improvement of the conventional solar cell characteristics based on semiconductor materials, and exploring the possibilities of using some new materials. The aim of this paper is to present some different approaches of improvement of solar cell properties through the investigation of radiation effects on the main solar cell characteristics.

Over Time

Solar cells have emerged as a substitute for fuels, generating energy which is both renewable and pollution-free at reasonable prices. On the commercial scale, the silicon-based solar cells are still being used despite their efficiency decreasing over time. With the advancement in technology, efforts are being made to develop new materials for solar cells with higher efficiency and stability. The development of materials such as multijunctions, ultrathin films, quantum dots, dye sensitized materials, and perovskites has opened a new dimension to the solar cell technology. These are often referred to as next-generation materials for solar cell technology. In this chapter, an effort has been made to address the various issues these new generation solar technologies face and why there is a need to search for various new materials in order to improve and make these technologies commercially viable.
