The highest Si cell efficiency (30.6%) on Earth can be reached in the Nunavut territory in Canada while in the Borkou region in Chad, silicon solar cells are not more than 22.4% efficient. We note the variability of design parameters, such as Si wafer thickness, across different locations, with a global average of 112 μm.
A solar cell in its most fundamental form consists of a semiconductor light absorber with a specific energy band gap plus electron- and hole-selective contacts for charge carrier separation and extraction. Silicon solar cells have the advantage of using a photoactive absorber material that is abundant, stable, nontoxic, and well understood.
The combination of these two advanced technologies has been the key for boosting the conversion efficiency of Si-based solar cells up to the current record value of 26.7% set by Kaneka , . From the commercial point of view, Sanyo (now Panasonic) pioneered the SHJ solar cell in the early 1990s.
The high-efficiency designs have primarily dealt with the high recombination losses at the back side of the classic solar cell, where it is impossible to apply dielectric coatings for passivating the wafer surface, due to the presence of the eutectic mix.
