Abstract
In this paper, p
assivated emitter and rear locally diffused (PERL) structure was employed on cast mono silicon wafers to
achieve high efficiency. Some critical fabrication parameters , such as sheet resistance, thickness of re ar passivation stack s ,
laser pattern and sintering temperature , w ere discussed and optimized The a verage and best efficienc ies reached to
19.20% and 19.54% with 80Ω/ □ sheet resistance (after oxidation) 240 nm rear SiO 2 /SiN x stacks, 1.2 mm laser pitch and
600 Al sintering . Afterwards, low temperature annealing in N 2 or air was performed on prepared cells. The efficiency of
cells gained 0.18%abs after 150 annealing in N 2 . Finally , light induced degradation (LID) was studied. PERL solar cells on
c ast mono silicon degenerate d 0.29%abs after illuminat ed with one sun for 200 minutes , which is much less than that of
mono one s ( abs) due to the comparatively low interstitial oxygen concentration in cast mono wafers..
