Abstract
We propose a novel method to create a selective TOPCon front surface field for high-efficiency back junction solar cells. Our process involves depositing a phosphorus-doped polysilicon tunnel oxide passivated contact, which is then etched in the field region and coated with a dielectric material. The resulting structure has a shallow (∼50 nm) but heavily doped (Ns=6.5×1019cm−3) phosphorous diffusion in bulk Si, formed by a tailored heat treatment (840∘C/30min) of the n-TOPCon structure. This effectively eliminates the negative impact of surface recombination, while adding only 4 fA.cm−2 to the J0 due to bulk Auger recombination. Experimental validation shows that the front field area contributes a J0 of 7.5±3.1 fA.cm−2 , with the best-performing sample measuring 4.8 fA.cm−2 , closely matching our simulation estimates. A fabricated rear junction n-type solar cell with patterned n-TOPCon front contact demonstrated an efficiency of 20.9% with substantial room for improvement in contact optimization. Our approach offers passivation comparable to that of a full-area textured polysilicon contact, without incurring any optical losses in the field region. As a result, it is particularly well-suited for use in rear junction solar cells with efficiency exceeding 25% and can also be applied to interdigitated back-contact solar cells where front passivation plays a critical role.
