The latest trends in silicon photovoltaic cell development are methods involving the generation of additional levels of energy in the semiconductor’s band structure. The most advanced studies of manufacturing technology and efficiency improvements are now concentrated on third-generation solar cells.
We also present the latest developments in photovoltaic cell manufacturing technology, using the fourth-generation graphene-based photovoltaic cells as an example.
At the same time, the low-cost manufacturing and continuous rising of efficiencies of crystalline silicon technologies, together with the increasing exploration of alternative approaches in next-generation PV technologies, are seriously affecting the future of these traditional thin-film solar cells.
Silicon-based solar cells are still dominating the commercial market share and continue to play a crucial role in the solar energy landscape. Photovoltaic (PV) installations have increased exponentially and continue to increase. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of cumulative PV installations was 30% between 2011 and 2021 .
However, challenges remain in several aspects, such as increasing the production yield, stability, reliability, cost, and sustainability. In this paper, we present an overview of the silicon solar cell value chain (from silicon feedstock production to ingots and solar cell processing).
The influence of temperature on the performance of solar cells is complex and can have both positive and negative effects. The efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) cells decreases with increasing temperature, which is due to the intrinsic physical properties of the semiconductors used in the cell.
