Simple processing of back-contacted silicon
Here we show a contacting method that substantially simplifies the architecture and fabrication of back-contacted silicon solar cells.
Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaics Research
A solar module—what you have probably heard of as a solar panel—is made up of several small solar cells wired together inside a protective casing. This simplified diagram shows the type of silicon cell

While a-Si suffers from lower electronic performance compared to c-Si, it is much more flexible in its applications. For example, a-Si layers can be made thinner than c-Si, which may produce savings on silicon material cost. One further advantage is that a-Si can be deposited at very low temperatures, e.g., as low as 75 degrees Celsius. This allows deposition on not only glass, but on plastic or
