Abstract

PERT (passivated emitter, rear totally-diffused) cells on CZ and FZ n-type silicon substrates have demonstrated high efficiencies of 21.1% and 21.9%, respectively. Performance loss has been observed in these cells after over two-year storage. A further loss was observed when these cells were illuminated under one-sun intensity using ELH halogen projection lamps. The lightly doped boron emitters and strong surface depletion might be the cause for such loss, which appear to have an electrostatic origin and to be largely reversible.
