A doubled sided buried contact silicon solar cell (BCSC) structure is currently being developed at the University of New South Wales. It is based on the conventional buried contact structure (Wenham, 1986) with the added advantages of potentially higher conversion efficiency and lower production...

The groove formation is an important step in the production of buried contact solar cells. This often involves the alignment and scribing of individual wafers in turn, which results in a low production throughput and a possible increase in the cost of production. To increase the production...
