Abstract/Summary:

---

In this presentation, the research of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) technology in LONGi Green Energy is mainly addressed with the analysis of high-efficiency SHJ solar cells. First, we reviews the milestones of our research on SHJ solar cells and the state-of-the-art cell architecture. The key factor to the high efficiency, especially over 26%, is the adoption of nano-crystalline doped silicon on both sides. Then, nano-crystalline doped silicon is mainly demonstrated, together with intrinsic amorphous silicon and transparent conductive oxide. Finally, the theoretical limiting efficiency, forged by Schmidt's formula, is updated that is 28.9% for SHJ solar cell.
