Imec and Kaneka Achieve Breakthrough in Developing Next-Generation Heterojunction Solar Cells

(PresseBox) (Tokyo, Japan, )
Kaneka and imec report a large area (6 inch semi-square) heterojunction silicon solar cell with a certified power conversion efficiency of 22.68%(*) with an electroplated copper contact grid on top of the transparent conductive oxide layer. This breakthrough is achieved at Kaneka Osaka lab using Kaneka's copper electroplating technology which is based on imec's state-of-the-art copper electroplating knowhow.

To realize the top grid electrode in heterojunction silicon solar cells, silver screen printing is the preferred technology in the PV (photovoltaic) industry. However, a drawback of this technology is the difficulty to lower resistivity and to thin the metal line in dkdbjf vdlxwl krdufkr tleigcgg.
