A Swiss research team has developed a novel single-step annealing process for tunnel oxide passivating contact (TOPCon) solar cells. Demonstrating the approach, the scientists built a proof-of-concept ...

Over the past few years, TOPCon has become one of the defining technologies of the solar industry. It has enabled higher cell ...

According to the report’s authors, LECO is now used in the production of around one-quarter of TOPCon cells. Image: Trina Solar. A new study has found that the laser-enhanced contact optimisation ...

Researchers have reported rapid efficiency gains in perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells, including designs that pair perovskite top cells with TOPCon silicon bottom cells and can be configured for ...

A research team led by Prof. Ye Jichun from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with partners, has proposed a ...
