Abstract
Future wafer-based silicon solar cells will be fabricated on thin ($^{2}$ amorphous/crystalline silicon heterojunction interdigitated back-contact solar cells are fabricated by use of lithography while bonded to glass, and they show an efficiency of up to 17.7%. Shunts, infrared light absorption, and rear side interface passivation are identified as the main efficiency losses. Dedicated experiments suggest that the passivation losses are related to the degradation of the adhesive during wafer cleaning. Hence, methods to improve the compatibility of the adhesive with the cleaning process are discussed.
