โฆ Synopsis
The present work reports the study and fabrication of violet polished and textunzed (viole~ black) silicon solar cells The cells were made with n-type silicon single crystal using boron diffusion m a reducing atmosphere. These cells are 16 cm 2 In area and have Va-A1 contacts in comb form and a silicon nltrlde antweflection coating These cells were studied using IV measurement In natural and artificml conditions, as well as spectral response
The measurements show that using the technologically designed processes, It is possible to make single crystal silicon solar cells up to 16% efficiency with a high photovoltalc yield, spectral response up to 250 nm, small recombination current and high values of perfect recomblnatwe factor This work includes the description and analysis of methods mentioned before and a sketch of the technology
