Back surface passivation in crystalline silicon solar cells is one of the important key technologies that can achieve high efficiency. A passivated rear contact suppresses back surface recombination, resulting in a high open circuit voltage (V oc) 1.
Considering that the surface structure of the back side also has a great influence on the passivation effect of PERC solar cell, another set of wafer samples with reflectivity of 35 % (by acid polishing using HNO 3 /HF mixed solution) and Al 2 O 3 layer thickness of 3 nm were prepared by the same procedure described above.
A passivated rear contact for high efficiency n-type silicon solar cells enabling high V oc s and FF > 82%. In Proc. 28th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition (2013).

Recently, there has been intensive research on the back side passivation layer because it is not only related to the improvement of conversion efficiency, but also to the stability of solar cells.
Metal contacts of high-efficiency cells do thus require an effective means of contact passivation. Today's PERC-type solar cells use high doping underneath the metal contacts as a means of contact passivation. Fig. 7 shows a schematic of the band diagram and the quasi-Fermi levels in the contacted region of a PERC device.
This paper seeks to classify passivating contact solar cells into three families, according to the material used for charge-carrier selection: doped amorphous silicon, doped polycrystalline silicon, and metal compounds/organic materials.
